Keep
Business
Going a.
Usual
The President of the United
States and many wise economists
of lesser note throughout the
land emphasize the importance of
UNINTERRUPTED AND IN
CREASED PRODUCTION in
the factories, in the mines, on the
farms, and every other form of
industry.
War cannot be successfully
waged without internal prosper
ity; war time brings greater use
for all commodities, not less. To
frighten trade at the place of con
sumption is to smother it at the
source of creation. To retard
distribution would be to paralyze
production.
It is important that our buying
and selling be uninterrupted.
Money should not be hoarded, but
exchanged circulated kept
moving. That process alone will
save the country from internal
hardship and outward menace.
A great store like this, whose
reputation depends upon con
tinued public confidence, may
safely be depended upon to serve
as an economical distributing cen
ter its managers are ever alert
to secure for its customers the
best merchandise and the best
values obtainable to bring them
to your door at the lowest pos
sible cost above cost of production.
