Now came an advertising solic- itor and claimed his circulation was “OF A BETTER CLASS.” This so- licitor knew that the paper he rep- resented was making an equal ef- fort for ALL classes circulation, and had been doing so for years. And he knew, of course, that this newspaper never asked the finan- cial standing of any subscriber, but accepted rich or poor without question.

The very newspaper which so- licits your business on the so-called QUALITY claim would give its printing press for a larger QUAN- TITY of circulation, It CLAIMS QUALITY only because it has FAILED TO GET QUANTITY. The Editorial and News Policy of The Star appeals to men and ‘women in all stations of life. *This is shown by the fact that The Star has a circulation in excess of 40,000 paid copies daily. Remember, Over 40,000 Paid Daily
