‘

oa ITS A VERY OLD STORY—the story of ‘the man who put in a: |
a great daily newspaper an inconspicuous 2-line advertisement: as: ;

follows: —_— ES

cats Wanted—$1.00 each, before
; 9am. 16 Major street,

He put. in this advertisement to

prove to a doubting friend that.
the public reads advertisements, , ’

You can imagine the doubter’s consternation: when he saw: next .
morning a streetful of men, women and children, each with a cat. |

_ Whatever you yourself’ mny do In regard to the reading of
advertisements, know this: Everything printed in a newspaper
gets read, and there are many who read every Line—news matter -
und ady ertisements—those with lots of time nnd curosity.

The company or firm with something to sell—something w hich
thousands of persons enn buy—wouldn't be very wise if it pud-
lished an inconspicuous advertisement. The right thing for it to:
(lo is to rash in on your attention, by pubUshing an advertisement
which everybody is likely to sec, , ,

Its job is to make youn—n normal nM or Wwonlan—see its
advertisement and to make it go interesting that you'll read it.
Then the advertisement must be persnasiv e. Also it should incite
yon to trke action,

Of course some advertisements—thove’ of local retailers—imay
quite proprly give prominence to pices Thelr job is to direct
you, tather than to inform or persuade you; and to stir you up
to quick action, |

‘The writing, designing and iNustrating of advertisements in-
tended to catch attention, intrigue interest, convey informnetion,
he convincing, breed desire, for what is advertised, and incite the
reader to purchase are highly specialized jobs

Tf you want to know just how diffieult is the job of writing an
advertisement which would get 100 marks from a competent judgc .
try to write one-—about a vaccum cleaner, a motor car, a: writing
ink, a child’s shoe, or any: thing else, limiting yourself te 300 words
or less.

THE HIGH COST OF EDUCATION
The high cost of education is what is
worrying nearly every school board
and. tax payer.of British Columbia.
It isnot so much the actual cost, ag it
is “Where ‘‘is.the money coming from?”
New Hazelton. seems to be something |
of an exception. Here there is an ele-
ment that” seeks, ‘to’ expand’ the eduea-
tional: ‘system and to add to the burden
of taxes, ‘What, conditions Teally de.
mand is a ‘Teduction of the present cost
Just what’ ‘the board ‘of: school. trustees
intend te do with the money tliey ask-
ed the ratepayers to’ ‘vote for the next
year, even’ the tinstees admitted that
they did not know and: ‘eould not say,
but: they Were ‘sure ‘they would ‘need it
a.. That iy hardly good enough in
these times. -

Now a meeting hos been held, and
another {gy called for tomorrow night
tu discuss, and possibly decide on the
mutter of whether it:is not advisable
to open high school classes here and
convert the local school into a superlor
school, That means a very consider-
able inerense in the expenditure an:
nuully, but in. addition, it means a con-
siderable outlay for new equipment’ at
the start. Altogether the cost is out o1
proportion to the benefits to be derived
and the cost will be far too heavy fo1

| the decreasing number ‘of tax payers

who actually pay their taxes,
Hazelton has a\ superior school anc
it is not so far away but that the 1
Pupils from.here pannot attend the

classes there, . the, jsame os they have
for the past two or three years, If
parents are anxious that their children
should go on through high ‘school they
should be willinr *y pay the extra
cost of transporting. These are times
when we must forget about the
Joneses and: get only what we can pay
for and what we really need. Two}:
superior schools In such a‘small area is
not necessary and there is no reason
why the school at Hazelton cannot be
used by. the New Hazelton pupils fo3
another. two or three yenrs, or until
such thnes as there may be a real need
for n high school here,
“Ratepayers will be well advised. to
turn down an expansion of the Ideal
chuols for the present, The money is
not -here and will not be for some time
—for some yeurs in ‘fact.
