There Is So Much
News this Month
that we do not have time to write
editorials. The one remark we particularly wanted to make is that
we dropped back 16 pages. Last month we had a 100 page paper
and we were very ambitious to keep that up. We thought a
hundred-page paper was representative of the vending machine
industry, that when it came into the hands of prospective buyers
of vending machines it would stimulate sales. Such an issue com
ing out every month would dignify the industry and induce a high
class of men to come into it.
W e believe this trade is getting large enough to support a first
class paper that will stand shoulder to shoulder with the best trade
papers representing any line of business.
W e want to urge each manufacturer in the trade to take space
and keep in TH E A U T O M A T IC AG E regularly. It will pay. Our
advertisers get good results, and whether they got any results at
all or not they can afford to spend a small amount of money to be
represented with some space at least. Incidentally it will benefit
the whole industry.
