  • 229 Hot Places to Run Your Classified Ad Classified Advertising Is a Proven Method
    THE FPA GUIDE AND 229 HOT PLACES TO RUN YOUR CLASSIFIED AD CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING IS A PROVEN METHOD The FPA Guide is book of companies that have products or services for sale to the federal government. Classified advertising has always been, and will continue to be the favorite method for Mail Order "Pros" to advertise. Almost all Mail Order Pros started with these tiny inexpensive ads since they represent the best cost effective way to reach millions of people. But, smart small business owners that selling to the federal government is one of the most profitable ways to get business coming in the door. It can be difficult to learn how to get contracts with the federal government, but the FPA Guide is the answer to all that messy paperwork. It's s common misconception that all government jobs have to go to the lowest bidder, but that's not entirely accurate. You see, when a government agency needs to procure a product or service under a certain amount of money, their procurement specialists turn to the FPA Guide, a handbook of companies that advertise their products in services within. It's much easier than trying to find and fill out all the paperwork. TWO BASIC METHODS Two basic methods are used with classified advertising. (1) Place an ad offering FREE literature, and then send your literature to all inquiries. A "free" offer will always out pull an ad that requests money, but your overall profits may be larger since you will generate more inquiries. This method is excellent when you are also collecting "Opportunity Seeker" names that you can rent.

C. Price 5 cents U. S. Department of Commerce National Bureau of Standards PROMULGATION of COMMERCIAL STANDARD CS12-38 for FUEL OILS (Foufth Edition) On January 9, 1929, a joint conference of representative refiners, distributors, and consumers of fuel oil, manufacturers of oil burners, and general interests adopted a recommended standard for domestic and industrial fuel oils, which was accepted in writing by the industry and published as Commercial Standard CS12-29. In 1933, and again in 1934, upon recommendation of the standing committee to keep the standard abreast of progress, revisions were adopted and issued as CS 12-33 and CS 12-35, respectively. On February 25, 1938, at the recommendation of the standing com- mittee, a revision of CS12-35, drafted by Technical Committee E of American Society for Testing Materials Committee D-2, was cir- culated for acceptance. The industry has since accepted and ap- proved for promulgation by the United States Department of Com- merce, through the National Bureau of Standards, the revised standard as shown herein. The standard became effective for new production on May 31, 1938, subject to the expiration of the then existing contracts.

"I wish to thank everybody for giving me the opportunity to do this job up here," said Deputy Rory VanDeusen at the dedication ceremony. He and his wife, Joyce, and their seven-month-old son, Scott, plan to move in this Thursday. Also on hand for the dedication was Miriam Johnson, who had previously lived in the house with her late husband, Belton Johnson. She told the crowd that when she was preparing to move out she had hoped the house would not be destroyed and could be put to a good use. That is why she donated it to the Captiva Civic Association. "All this is in answer to a prayer," said Mrs. Johnson, 'The house meant so much to us." She said she was glad that a fine young couple were moving into it and "I hope they will be as happy and as blessed in this house as Belton and I were."
