The Advertising Value of Circulation It is Always Found in the Home Going HomeStaying Newspaper The value of newspaper circulation cannot be gaug ed by the yardstick of quantity any more than a mans brain can be measured by the size of his head There are many ways to estimate the value of newspaper circulation to advertisers but only one way to PROVE it The proof is found on the merchant s balance sheet at the end of the year Thats the one true test of returns on any advertising investment The onetimeonly special sale adver tisement is seldom satisfactory An advertiser may by chance succeed with onetime advertising aiid this may lead him to the conclusion that this kind of advertising is permanently resultful But he doesnt count the cost and will never get much further in an advertising way by clinging to the onetime method Those influenced by such methods are not likely to repeat their purchases un less he continues to tempt them with extravagant price concessions Nor is a single advertisement a true test of the resultproducing power of any newspaper What an advertiser really wants to know about a medium is How do its subscribers

THE DUTY OP A NEWSPAPER Unfavorable criticisms of news papers are frequently made on the ground that they misrepresent things That is true They Ire qnently do But the newspaper which is trying faithfully to give the reading public the news makes remarkably few mistakes when it is considered how many state ments it is called upon to make in eachissue Those who are in the habit of charging inaccuracy in newspapers should remember two things First the average news paper makes certainly not less than ten thousand statements a year If none of these were er roneous or slightly misleading it would be astounding And sec ondly it is customary for one mis take in a newspaper to provoke more criticism than the nine thousand ninehundred and nine tynine correct statements And this very fact is much in the newspapers favor If the mis takes were so common they would not excite so much comment The record for accuracy and truth as held by a standard newspaper of good repute and enjoying a wide circulation among aa intelligent clientalle would put to blush any stump speaker platform lecturer or magazine lecturer in the land We once knew of a
