AT a time like the present, when most business executives are exploring every avenue lor the stimulation of sales and the reduction of overhead, the question of advertising receives more than usual attention. This is, perhaps, only natural, and rightly so, for there is no avenue through which money can be wasted "'.ore easily; similarly, there is no ore profitable field for investment, particularly in a time of business Stress, than that offered by advertising. Any keen business executive looking back through the files of New Zealand's leading newspapers cannot help being struck by the fact that most of the well-established, pro-" gressivo firms of |o-day are those who have been consistent advertisers. It is significant, also, that the p:i ~res3 of most firms can be traced by their advertising. Soma firms, for instance,- which held a big share of their particular business field twenty or thirty years ago, have written the story of their decline in the advertising pages of the daily newspapers. Others, again, show their rise and ever-continuing expansion. It is an interesting study, for in no -sphere do methods change quicker than in that of advertising and no field offers greater opportunity for the building up of goodwill. Furthermore, it is a field no commercial institution can afford to neglect. The people of Canterbury are, and have always been, used to their morning newspaper, and, as in CANTERBURY, as in ENGLAND, AUSTRALIA, and NEW ZEALAND, the MOBNING NEWSPAPER leads in Circulation and Coverage, and is recognised as the ideal medium, both for National i>.nd 'Retail Advertising. THE MORNING NEWSPAPER is read by the men folk before leaving for bu°iress, and is read and REFERRED TO BY THE WOMEN FOLK SEVERAL TIMES DURING THE DAY. THE CHIEF BUYER IN EVERY HOME is the Housewife, and before leaving home to do the family shopping the advertising pages are eagerly read in order to ascortain where to go and the best that is offering, so as to make the purchases with the minimum amount of effort and time.
