To make the soap ad interesting and convey e »—Miss F:_————-——_-——_% Ads that are effective are the ads that are simple and filled with common sense. The common sense of the ad- vertiser comes into play in the preparation of every ad he prepares the more experienced he becomes. It is the ex- perienced advertiser after all who appreciates the value of newspaper advertising, knows how to advertise, and writes the ads that count. If a merchant is going to advertise there are but three things for him to put into his ads—name the article for sale, tell why the article is good to have, and then say that he sells it. An ad should catch the eye of the reader. This can be done by so preparing the ad as to have it easily distinguish- ed from other ads in the paper. It is up to the advertiser or merchant to lay out his ads, and then he puts his own taste and ideas into his ads. By continually studying this - phase of his advertising and putting his best ideas into -practice he will find that his ads will grow in attractive- ~ Dess. Ads must interest by appealing to the intelligence of the For instance let us illustrate a good way to ad- infermation we might show the value of cleanliness, use and misuse of soap, how it is made and the ingredients it contains, and wherein it excells other kinds of soap. In this way we secure the attention and interest, and if the soap can stand the test the ad will be convincing. The attractive, interesting and convincing ads are the Ones- that sell the goods. They are the telling ads and Others have found it out and we want Delicious, appetizing and satisfying.
