Explain to folks plainly and sincerely what you have to sell; do it in as few words as possible, and keep everlastingly coming at them. "Advertising is pretty much like running a furnace. You've got to keep on shoveling coal. Once you stop stoking the fire goes out. strange that some people's Imasination can't compass this fact." Wrigley "kept shoveling coal" into whatever he did, whether it was the merchandising of his gum, the promotion of Catalina Island or Arizona real estate properties, the establishment of the Chicago Cubs in the hearts of baseball fans, the satisfaction of his greatest personal ambition--a World Series pennant, or philanthropy.

He was a traveling salesman when other youngsters his age still were poring over school books. He married at 20 on a salary of $10 a week, and started his rise to The oldest children, fortune with an empty, pocketbook. Wrigley grew up to hate manufacturing. His father owned 8. 808 factory Philadelphia, where Wrigley was born, and the latter never took kindly to the business.

He was too full of spirits to settle down aptianterent in prosaic things. WAs sent home from school, suspended. Regularly his father intervened and got him back. At 11, he ran away from of home to New York City and walked down Broadway, jingling the few pennies he had left after buying a ticket. He became a newsboy, sleeping at night on a grating by the old Tribune Building, his coat rolled up pillow and the air from the pressroom keeping him warm.

Other times he slept. under wagons. As he became accustomed to the city, he branched out into other little enterprises, running errands and carrying bundles. He once tried working schooner tied up in the harbor for rerigging, he lasted only one day. Scamper- pert ing the ropes to cut away old pieces of tarred rope from the masts was too much.

Poor Potato Peeler He tried another salling vessel and went to work in the galley peeling potatoes, but was discharged at the end of the day. The cook had complained that he cut off more potato than peeling. He was not out of touch with home, for he sent -cards back to Philadelphia regularly telling of his thrilla, but he never gave a return address. He remained in New York all one summer and well into the fall, then got homesick. He went back to school, but his mischievousness soon got him into trouble, A name plate on corner of the school building took his eye.

He threw a soft pie at it -and was trapped. It was his last expulsion from school. Young Wrigley went to work in the hated soap factory at the age of 12. He mixed soap--it was a long, tedious task. He became strong but rebelled.

Shortly after acquiring long trousers he went on the road at 13 as a salesman. His first customer was a Westchester, dealer, finally bought from Wrigley'8 soap samples "just to be rid of you." Orders came back in a stream from the youthful drummer. He covered New England most of the Middle Atlantic States. When he was 19, he heard the call of the West, deserted his job and used all his savings to buy tickets for himselt and a chum. They were going to Leadville, but at Kansas City, a puff of wind swept their tickets out of Wrigley's hat.

So 'got off there. From a waiter in a restaurant, Wrigley progressed to he could read and write." He became 8 salesman again when a rubber. stamp vendor trusted him with a $10 stock. He sold it at a profit of $300. Suddenly he packed and went home to Philadelphia and took up his soap selling task again.

but not for long. He wanted to get into business himselt. He went to Chicago in 1891 with $32 capital and began selling scouring powder. Through premiums, he built up the business, but his big spurt came when he decided to sell baking powder and offered a free cook book with each can. He got into the chewing gum business by a roundabout way.

He bargained with the Zeno Manufacturing Company to use its gum as a premium. The gum became more popular than the baking powder.
