I SOOit MIDVALE WINS SECOND PLACE 1 Practicall y every person in the Salt Lake valley is interested in -the case of Melvin Mitchell, a Midvale boy who returned from the world war and from service overseas, In a bad physical condition. Melvin's condition grew steadily worse after the war and he was sent to various hospitals in Denver, San Francisco and Salt Lake City and had specialists from every quarter of the globe working on him, examing him under t~ X-ray and underwen t :four operations . It seemed that each operation complicated rnattters and that he became w~ker physically after each ordeal. However, we are glad to report that on May 11, the date of the last operation in St. Marks hospital, the source oi trouble was definitely located anti Mr. Mitchell has been steadily improving since that date, He is now gaining strength daily and is able to engage to some extent in gainful occupations. Mr. Mitchell is overjoyed , even as you and I would be, when snatched from the hands of death at the eleventh hour. And the lamentabl e fact {)f the whole situation centers in the outcome of an operation, the fifth in number, performed outside the government supervisio n, and after the governme nt medical staff had failed apparentl y to do anything for his case. He became disgusted several months ago with the treatment received at the hands of outside medical specialists and decided that if he ever it w.ould be necessary to take his own hands and prodoctor. after he decided, to place the case J. S. Alley, of 'Mitch1ell states that convinced him, that after years of suffering, he finally hit upon the right course. His last operation was performed by Dr. Alley at the St. Mark's hospital. We sincerely hope for Mr. Mitchell, that his prediction s are well founded and that he continues to improve until no trace is left of his sufferings for the past nine years. Whan you meet him on the street, He has a story ask him about it. brim full of humor and pathos, mixed with red tape and inefficienc y. It is a matter of record also, that some months ago, after paying him compensa tion for several months, it suddenly stopped, and also he is without qulstion, hampered by private doctor bills and the effects of nine years of sickness, caused uhdoubted ly by his service in the army, yet he rect>Jves nothing from the governme nt at the present time. He wonders, and justly so, what caused this sudden cessatiton of compensation which, it appears, is justly due him.

I I Harvard School of Business Research has recently issued the results of a study, made from all sources at its command, of the amounts justified for advertis ing expenditure by various lines of business and with it the total expense justified for sales. They are as follows: Total ·Per Cent of Per Cent for advertis ing Expense for Sales 25.05 . 3.87 ...................

He knows that the grocer, the hardwar e dealer. the druggist , the shoe man and the lumber dealer in 'his town should advertis e; if he approach his task tactfully and intellige ntly he can usually convince even the most doubtful nonadve rtiser that he should advertis e; with the aid of his advertis ing cut and . copy service he can assist them in... preparing.. attractiv e advertis ements which will draw custome rs to their stores and sell their goods; but when it comes to advising the merchan t just home much he should spend in advertis ing he is sometim es at a loss to give thllt service -to fix the merchan t•s advertis ing appropri ation at a figure commensurate with the volume of his business and help him plan his advertis ing expendit ures wisely and profitabl y. If he sets the amount too low and the mereban t•s advertising does not bring the desired results, the merchan t . is more likely to regard the publishe r's paper as an unsatisfactory advertis ing medium and '~blame it on" the paper, instead of realizing that he is not spending enough money to make money. If the amount is too high. the merchan t will likely be dissatisf ied with the fact that he is not getting an adequate return for his investme nt. The usual "rule of thumb'• is the stateme nt that the advertis ing appropri aFrom the tion should be 3 per cent of the gross sales. above table it will be seen that, although the average will run above 3 per cent, attention should be paid to the specific case instead of to the general rule and that the publisher should not ask the lumber and hardwar e dealer to plan on spending as high a per cent of his gross as the furnitur e dealer, the jeweler and the propriet or of a men•s furnishi ng store. The figures furnishe d by the Harvard school are probably as reliable a guide as can be obtained anywher e and as such can be used to advantag e by the publishe r in dealing with his advertis ers. Not only do they offer him a means of showing the merchan t how to spend his money wisely in advertis ing, but in the statistic s on the total expense (which includes the merchan t's advertis ing and overhead ) justified for sales, he can probably offer the merchan t some Informa tion that will be valuable to him in the conduct of his business. The desire of any merchan diser to have regular customers should be the desire of the publishe r as a dealer in Helping the mer~hant _plan his adver.tising advertis ing. expendit ures on a sol!nd economic basis so that he will get value received for his investme nt is one way to make regular advertis ing custome rs.
