realize that the merchants shelves are not stocked like they used to be but is there not real value in keeping their name be fore the public we notice the big chain stores are increasing rather than decreasing in their advertis ing when they have little merchan dise they use their space to promote victory loans victory gardens and other worthy projects thus they are on solid ground these big or ganizations know that publicity in any form is going to react to their advantage they know that mr public who is attracted and influ enced by their smart advertisments is going to have a feeling of
