VIEWPOINT To Girls State Duchesne High From Altamont Selects Envoy Incorporation Of CLIFF 'MEMMOTT, Editor Altamont Town Given Final O.K. 1 CHAIN STORE FOUNDER PRAISES NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING MEDIA At a recent meeting of the Inland Daily Press Assn. in Chicago, J. C. Penney, founder of the chain of 1632 department stores in 48 states that bear his name, made the following statements that are pertinent to every retail business operator in the country: Retail merchants cant do' business without newspaper advertising. We spend the bulk of our advertising dollars in newspapers. It seems perfectly natural to us that retailers can no more live without newspapers, than newspapers can live without retail advertising. Our dependence on newspaper advertising follows due consideration of natural magazines, radio, television and other media, Mr. Penney said. Previous statements by the chain store founder have given newspapers in small towns and larger areas credit for the tremendous growth his company has enjoyed since he established his first store in Kemmerer, Wyoming fifty years ago. .... s Srn.Ml3l I Called For non-partisa- HAVE UNIQUE PLACE . . . High readership, strong circulation and local interest have established weeklies as the most effective advertising mdium yet developed, was the conclusion of a panel discussion at a recent at the University of Utah, where experts in the Workshop field had been invited to address the annual advertising conference sponsored by the University Extensionmarketing Division and the Intermountain Marketing and Sales Industry. Over 600 people attended the conference. Reports of surveys conducted by the Brigham Young University showed that weeklies have ninety to one hundred per cent readership, while dailies have approximately thirty per cent, and radio and television have approximately fourteen per cent. The conclusions of the conference were based on the type of stories the small town paper carriesprimarily stories about local people; features that concern neighbors. The weekly editor is in close contact with the and . learns to appreciate them. . . He knows what people they enjoy reading, because they tell him, the report stated. Those of us who edit and publish newspaper each week get a lot of personal satisfactionyour out of feeling that his strength is felt in a civic and moral way , , . hundreds of people get their names in every issue of that our newspapers. . . We are trying diligently to improve our product, and do' appreciate the fine help and acts of en couragement extended us by the good people of the Basin. v E v What fromMrenasonVer WWl &TdeMly ey only sh for La Rochefoucauld of weekly newspapers fr ir We love without reason, and - without reason we hate.

Mrs. Vida Curry, representing the stake, welcomed the Seagull girls who had graduated from Primary into the Mutual work. She also thanked all ward and stake teachers for their untiring efforts in the Bee Hive work. Mrs. Arwella Moon, from the stake, told the girls what a wonderful thing it was to have Pri- d the stake, presented the Seagyll girls with their lovely bright' blue bandlos, with which they will begin their Bee Hive work. Each girl was also given a card on which was printed the Spirit of The Hive. This is one of the first things the girls must know in order to fill one of their requirements.
