Quality Maintained
RECENT years have seen considerable reductions
in the cost of commodities and service in all lines.
The public has learned to expect lower prices. It is
important, however, to see that these reductions are
legitimate, and not effected by a sacrifice of quality.
It is one thing to buy at a lower price when quality
remains the same, and quite another to accept inferior
merchandise or service offered as a "bargain."
Our charges for merchandise and service are lower
today than they have been in many years, but the re
duction is the result of lower costs and economies in
management. We refuse to sacrifice our high standards
of quality and mislead our clients .with?, 'savings,' which
are only apparent.
