That's far from the general view. But it's way a sizable number of businessmen are talking today. Some are talking about their particular industry, some about their own firm. A few refer only to the first part of the year, olliers to the last pnrl.

But clearly some lines of business believe they'll march to new heights in the new year. Many important, segments of th are prepared for a sill next year. The majority now scorn that the 1954 tally lor biisl ness and industry in general ma not equal the 1953 record. But here is what be Jieve they are exceptions to the saying: Take the auto industry. Outpu sights for the industry as a w'tolo have been lowered.

Manufacturers of road making machinery look for a dip in business the first of the year but expect sales to pick up at the close to a level greater than in 1953.

A glut of gasoline and fuel oil plagues the industry right now. But demand for oil products should go up by five per cent next year, many believe, and help ease the problem. The coal industry is worried now, too. But the National Coal Assn. believes output in the next three months will top the first quarter of.1953.

Main Sales Servict Phont 2071 THE ONE-WING BOASTY BIRD can't make headway with one wing tied, but still he wants to keep trying A BOASTY BIRD Is an advertiser who purposely flies in the face of experience even though he knows it's harder that v.ay. He'd rather climb stairs on his hands and knees than take a comfortable ride in an elevator. And he'd rather use an advertising method that might succeed in place of a method that doesn't fail. Fortunately he's a rare creature.

The advertising that always docs its job, of course, is newspaper advertising. It's basic. Very few manufacturers or advertisers, for example, would even dream of trying to introduce a new product without using newspapers. Because only the newspaper reaches just about everybody in town day in and day out. And today more people are reading more newspapers than at any time in history.

No wonder it's basic for advertisers! All business is local and so are all newspapers! Tbh menage prfpirtd bj BUREAU OF AD', UK USING, American Newquptr fublhhtn Anoclatkn THE BLYTHEV1LLE COURIER NEWS.
