m,
Rothschild’s Department Store, in busi-
ness here for more than a quarter of a cen-
tury, is one of the community’s outstanding
business institutions.
Far and near, it has earned a reputa-
tion for dependability and right prices
which has established it a patronage
throughout this section of the county as
well as in the outlying communities of ad-
joining counties.
On July 14, Rothschild's will have been
in business here twenty-six years, having
originally been established at a location
in the building on W. Ennis Avenue which
is now the M. D. Glaspy property; and
having been in operation in the present
location on Main Street the past fourteen
years.
The stoic was established by the late
Sam Rothschild and since the well-known
merchants death, nearly a decade and a
half ago, his family have carried on the
business, and have borne out the same
policies of friendliness and fairness and
' good values.
Rothschild's might well be known as a
one-stop department store, being so com-
plete in its dependable stocks that this pro-
gressive establishment can easily clothe the
entire family—mother, dad and the young-
sters.
And it's a pleasure to shop at Roths-
child’s.
There's a wide selection of merchan-
dise, shown you by courteous and efficient
salespersons who are sincerely interested in
extending to you the best possible service.
Rothschild’s, years ago, adopted the
right slogan—’’The Trustworthy Store"—
one which "sells better goods for less, with
satisfaction guaranteed."
