A Wran. gell he will confer with interests there which have been promoting a similar company for several inonths. He will seek to bring them into his own organization He probably will go from thero to Ketchikan and then return hero to close his arrangements with lo- cal people. “The Southeastern Alaska fiéld offers a magnificent chance profitable air transportation the establishment of such an en- terprise will be of valie to eve community which it touches,” de der services which are badly nezd- clared Mr. Brannan. “It will rens ed, and at a cost which is reason- able in every respect.” He has already re surance of business from South- astern Alaska salmog packers which will bring in an annual reve- nue of §$12,600 at the outset, he added.

The ships the company expects to purchase are duplicates of the famous Spirit of St. Louis in which Col. Charles A. Lindbergh mads his New York to Paris flight. They will be equipped with the latest type of Wright Whirlwind motors and fitted with all metal pontoons for water landing: “These ships are as modern and =afe and as well suited for this run as anything that flies,” Mr. Bra n said.

You who believe advertising is teo exepnsive to justi- fy its returns, listen to this: Twenty-cight years ago the makers of a watch pre- duced a cumhersome but accurate article, priced $1.50. Without advertising, they sold that first year 12,000. The next year, with a little tentative advertising, they sold 87,000. Encouraged, they increased the factery and dis- tribution, reduccd the size of the watch, priced .00, made a reasonable advertising apprepriation — and sold 485,000. When the makers of a famous camera began adver- tising thirty years ago, they made one camera which took a 2Y%-inch picture, and sold at $25.00. In 1917, that time of the distressing upward trend of prices, these people made a better camera that sold for $10. Who pays for the advertising? Or does the advertis ing pay for itself? And what good advertising - executed in attractive print did for the watch and the camera, it can do in some measure for your product.
