It’s PRACTICAL PATRIOTI
to SHOP NOW!
LARGER SELECTION
FRESHER STOCK
BETTER SERVICE
• •
“THESE are the times that try mens souls.. .” These are the
times when clerks wish they had a soft office job and customers re-
gret that Christmas giving ever assumed such great importance. Yet
Christmas shopping can be made one of the most pleasant experi-
ences of the year... if it is dohe practically. Shop as early as possible
... make a list with at least one alternative for every item... buy use-
ful gifts... carry your own packages, .. accept substitutes ... be
patient with inexperienced clerks... don’t expect the impossible in
service or merchandise. Shop now and consider the religious signifi-
cance of the holiday in the days just preceding Christmas.
The earlier you shop, the better and more extensive the selection of
merchandise ... comein today and choose your Christmas gifts.
If you shop now before the goods have been picked over, you will be
much more satisfied with your selection,.. it’s at its best today!
i
The earlier you shop, the fewer competitors you’ll find bidding for
the service of the clerks... shop now and receive better attention.
