JUST FIVE MONTHS AGO this firm
changed from credit to cash. At that
time many of our good friends were
doubtful of our success, reasoning
that a strictly cash system was al
right for a large city but that our little city
of Columbus was too smalL Many others
predidted disaster, while the KNOCKERS,
(peace to their ashes) predicted that our
lateh strings would be soon decorated with
crepe.
We are still much alive, though seldom
kicking we have no reason for any kick,
besides we haven't time.
With the help of our customers and in
spite of the knockers big and little we are
today doing the biggest business in Colum
bus with all departments of this large mer
chandising outfit full and running over
with the choicest and best selected lines of
mercandise that the markets can produce.
Our sales have averaged from 109o to 20
larger in each department each month since
we have been selling for cash as compared
with the same months last year when selling
on credit With this showing it is evident
that the good people of Columbus are con
vinced that they can do better trading at a
cash store than they can where they sell on
credit. We want to thank you for the en
couragement and support you have given
us. We want every customer to know we
value and appreciate this support.
