Ours is a Business Built on Service
To deliver to you promptly the merchandise you want when you want it at a price you are willing to pay is a very minimum service a store may render. It is not our ideal of service. It is a conception of service that may win some customers, but our ambition is to make friends first and customers after. Service with us concerns itself with "plus services," in not only serving but serving graciously, in making adjustments cheerfully, in viewing every accommodation we are able to render as an opportunity to strengthen the bond of friendship which years of courteous square dealing have built up be- tween this institution and it's customers.
