Hear it todayl _JUoD & DUgp Dealer for Tadio Corporation of America. STREF TEL. 4581 The New Britain Herald earnestly requests you to consider its circulation of over 15,000 printed and dis- tributed daily, before placing an advemsement. Circula- tion is the pivot about which result building revolves and all other statements are but foolish prattle when circula- tion is but mentioned. Realizing that there’s nothing to take the place of circulation, the Herald joined the Audit . Bureau of Circulations, a national organization with a corps of crack auditors who check the circulation claim of this paper. That's showing faith with the advertiser, both' display and classified, and there's no two ways about it. Try as one will, by making honeyed statements, the ques- tion of circulation can not be dodged, it just has to be dis- cussed with the advertiser, and well it might be, for tlllt'l N the warp and woof of result getting. Tn conclusion, the Herald has over three times the" circulation of any other newspaper published in New Brit- ain, and is proud of the fact that it is the only local nfll- paver with an audited circulation.
