The old Romans held it in honor of the goddess of the fruit trees and in Britain, the Druids celebrated a festival at the same time in honor of their sun god and in thanksgiv- ing for harvest. When the people became Christians they instead held it in memory of All Saints and Martyrs. Thus the eve of the fes- CORRESPONDENT: Mrs. Raymond Stuart, R.

Th_is_‘can.be ov‘erc'ome- to The Problem Of The ' RETAIL MERCHANT a great extent by carefully planned advertls- ing. As a control medium advertising can be of considerable value in keeping sales at an economic level. Retail merchants now- ever, especially those in small communities are confronted with the need of a very flex- ible advertiing medium. One that can be used regularly throughout the entire year, yet pliable enough to suit the needs of the moment. Also, it must be one that can be tailored to fit any budget and at the same time give maximum coverage. Due to fluc- tuating prices it must be advertising that can be planned to reach the buying public within two or three days. , Newspaper Advertising is the advertising vehicle that has proved beyond doubt to be of greatest value to retail merchants. It fills all their requirements and has' been the most important, single factor, in the success of so many. The Liberal is at,your service. We publish a well printed weekly paper that will give your advertising very good coverage in this area.
