iPPPPMPn ...,...,,..,, THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, J921 i The Newer Wilmette Village Hall On March 2, 1919, Wilmette was swept by a. terriffic tornado. With le course of the storm following Wil- mette avenue the Village" Hall sus- tained the brunt of the twisting winds and when tranquility resumed was found to be in a deplorably damaged condition, practically roofless and rain-soaked throughout. President Zipf set about imme- diately with his Village Board to bring order out of the chaos,at the municipal headquarters. While dis- cussing the ways and means of ef- fecting the rehabilitation of the struc- ture, the far-seeing officials hit upon the expedient of "doing the job right" or "killing two birds with one stone", if you please, by rebuilding the in- terior of the structure and adding a second floor which had been provided for as a future possibility when the building was constructed. McCLURE DISCUSSES ADVERTlSlCTEPES Head of Wilmette Sunday Evening «e»der in Advertising Field Says Ads are Good News About Good Goods CHURCHES REALIZE NEED Public Institutions, He Says, Find That Paid Advertising Space Car- ries Accurate Messages "Governments, political parties, boards of health, churches and schools realize that paid advertising space accurately qca^ries t|heir messages", says W. Frank McClure. 219 Broad- way, President of the Wilmette Sun- day Evening Club and chairman of the Advertising^onnc4^of-the-^hica- go Association of Commerce. " Mr. McCIure's statement came in an address recently before the Execu- tives' club in the Hotel Sherman, Chicago, in which he made the signi- ficant statement that more advertis- ing had been done in September of this year than in any month for many years. Timeliness and human interest prevail to a large degree in modern advertising," he said. "It helps ad- vertising to* be as effective as it is, -and that is only about 5 percent at present. Like electricity, its full pow- er has not been developed." Governments. Political parties, boards af health, churches and schools realize that paid space accurately car- ries their messages. The best artiste ~ contribute their effort s to advertising \nowadays, when a decade ago they thought it unethical, the speaker said; and the best writers likewise are turn- ing ad "writers. Unscrupulous Advertiser Passe "Advertising, in the strictly com- mercial s?ense,is good news about prood goods. Through organized advertising bodies, and legislation in thirty-four states, the unscrupulous advertiser of the past is being driven from his last stand. Apart fruiitâ€"legislation, thou- sands of publications are consistently refusing questionable copy. All this has the effect of making advertisers of our strongest business institutions. "Annual advertising appropriations of banks in some instances run as high as a million dollars. Advertis- ing builds good will, and that is the basis of credit. Many a manufacturer of a nationally advertised product could lose all his physical equipment and his entire stock of raw material, but his greatest asset, good will, would remainâ€"the thing created by advertising, r "Advertising has pulled many a bus- iness out of the mire, and turrted fail- ure into success as if by magic, Mr. McClure said. "Building reputation is more impor- tnat than spearing for immediate sates. The skillful advertiser appea as accurately as he can senses, to impelling . motives, "the" public sense of fairness. Type Faces Important "Even the tvpe itself may suggest strength, feminity, serenity, dij antiquity, common sense ness, Mr. McCture said. to human and to or cheap- atmosphere of strength." he said "Colored illustrations appeal mast to women, but another kind must be used for men. "Americans respond more favorably to a question than to a command. Ac- tion commands more attention than ads whichâ€"doâ€"not suggestâ€"action. The public reads that which is easy to read and worth reading. These are a few of the reasons why adver- tising is growing by leaps and bounds in the United States." WOULD WARN MOTORISTS AT STREET TERMINUS APPROACH Village Trustee Paul A. Hoffman, as spokesman for the Wilmette Im- provement association, of which he is president, Tuesday evening asked the Village Board to consider the erec- tion of signs at Sixteenth street and Central avenue, informing motorists that Central avenue terminates one- half Block west of that point, block north and west of that point. Motorists, it was explained, frequently proceeded on the street until their cars left the pavement and entered vacant property .where machines could be manuevered out only with great difficulty and after consider- able noise and consequent disturb- ance to property owners. The Im- provement association, Mr. Hoffman explained, would pay for the placing of the signs.
