(Ad) 3 Family Yard Sale on Liberty Road, 1200 Liberty Road, Columbia, KY Another ad with a name; a very special touch in the spirit of CM: Joann Elder writes: 3 Family Yard Sale 7am-3pmCT, Saturday, October 8, 2011, at 1200 Liberty Road, Columbia, KY. Lots of items, brand name shoes and purses, clothing and housewares. - Joann ElderA special thank you to Joann Elder. We like this style ad, very much in the Spirit of CM. There's something very friendly, very inviting, about a Yard Sale which includes the givers name(s). Not everyone thinks of that, and that's OK. That doesn't mean they are unfriendly, and anonymous advertisers may have very special, very valid reasons for not giving names, which we respect. But adding a name to a Yard Sale indicating the giver(s) of the sale is very, very, special. Names are so very, very important in ads, news stories, and photographs. Their power can't be overestimated. And, by the way, if a name is omitted inadvertently, either by the advertiser or by us, we'll be happy to update. Just use the Updates or Corrections button with the ad, and we can make the change in seconds after it's opened. -EW 2011-10-07 05:22:28 | Comments | Printable version
