-BURGESS-NASH STORE NEWS FOR MONDAY-
Phone Douglas 137.
Well! Let's See What the News Is From Burgess-Nash
For Monday-Surely, Something of Unusual Importance
IN THE
"ARMY
OF
SERVICE"
It if hard to conceiv of any
man in this great country of ours
not willingly ready to do his duty,
each in his turn, and each accord
ing to what he is best fitted
to do.
It is hard to conceive a busi
ness not subscribing with all. the
energies it possesses to the ap
peal for the "Army of Service."
Many businesses, those most
successful, have grown great
through the constant application
of those fundamentals upon
which this wonderful army of na
tional efficiency is being created.
Great stores to grow and re
main great always have found it
wise to follow that motto,
"Small profits and quick ,
service."
It's the number of times the
dollar "turns over" goes out to
the manufacturer for goods,
comes back from the consumer
for goods and goes out and
comes back again that counts.
The judgment with which
merchandise is bought, the dis
patch with which it is brought to
the particular center of distribu
tion, the quickness with which it
is sold and new merchandise
bought make the great store to
day, ihis medium or communica
tion between the manufacturer
and the consumer performs its
fullest usefulness in the general
scheme of efficiency.
So, this store again subscribes
itself with all its heart, with all
its energies, with all its re
sources and resourcefulness to
the great army of service, feel
ing that although it jias always
belonged to some such army, it
is thankful that its business prin
ciples give it opportunity today
to reiterate again its pledge.
