If you hive a chance you do it every time something new comes along. When your team wins, by skill or weird luck, it isn't enough to see it pictured to hear it told just once.

You take a second look in your newspaper. It's the only sports medium that gives you a chance to gloat and mastermind to your heart's content. Whenever a politician, or a labor leader, or an act of God changes the traffic light for your business, you take a second look at your newspaper. It's the only news medium that gives you a chance for quick complete re-evaluation. When you want a house, or refrigerator, or television set, you look in your 'newspaper at A's ad, then B's and C's, then back to A's.

You take a second look. And your newspaper is the only advertising medium that gives you a chance to shop and compare, and see what's for sale here and now. Everybody wants a chance for a second look on the things that interest him most. That's why practically everybody reads the newspaper every day. Just as you read the paper now, your customers and prospects read the paper too at the time they choose, for as long as they choose for the advertising as well as for news or for fun.

When your selling is backed by newspaper advertising, your story has a chance to reach almost everybody. Not just comedy fans, or mystery fans, or sports fans but everybody. That's why advertisers today invest far more of their money in newspapers than in any other form of advertising. Only the newspaper is first with the most news first with the most people first with the most advertisers! respectfully call your attentiort to the Community Chest.
