AN ALL-FAMILY INSTITUTION
The average family, no matter how close its ties may be,
nor how fine its loyalties, isn't as alike as peas in a pod. Father may read blood-curdling detective stories which mother
secretly regrets having around where the children can _ see
them. Mother may like bridge and saccharine moving pictures
while her oldest son may rebel at such amusements— sneak
off with his sister to see an extravaganza, notable for its hot
music. Some of the family may listen to the radio—and other
members may wish fervidly, at times, that it had never been
invented.
But the newspaper—today, more than ever before—is
an all-family institution, it was emphasized at the annual
meeting of the Newspaper Advertising Executives Asssociation in New York last week. With the war intensifying interest in both local and world-wide coverage, the all-family read-.
er appeal of the newspaper has reached a new high. C. E.
Phillips of the Rockford (Ill). Star, told the newspaper executives.
As a consequence, said Publisher Phillips, newspaper
advertising today has far greater sales value than it has even
enjoyed in the past—and far surpasses, in results, any and all
other media: ‘“The educational value of a medium with such
wide circulation and keen reader interest,”’ Phillips declared,
“is becoming more and more apparent to merchandisers. who
seek to sell products of every kind and description. There are . ,
no other advertising media which can compete with the steady
public interest and support that is given to the nation’s newspapers.” :
.. We can think of no badge of public favor we would
rather have than to ge known as an all-family institution. It
is the objectice all publishers seek to achieve—and it is good
to know that the nation has adopted the newspaper as its one
all-family medium. :

__ A survey just completed by Raymond W. and David
