Lowest-in-the.City Prices for High Grade Merchan- dise Is the Last Word in Good Store-keeping "Te years ago our store was opened on Second Street near Wolcott. It was; unpretentious in appearance, and unaware of the great future that lay, before it. But it had adopted the dic- tum that its prices must be lower than those of any of its competitors and it left its own fate in the hands of the public. "T opay our store is admittedly the _~ largest in Casper in volume of bus- iness. Volume of business is our motto. It enables us to quote you the lowest possible prices for high grade merchan- dise that is up-to-the Minute in style and quality. In trading at our store you have the satisfaction of knowing that you are obtaining the best. The history of Fuchs progress has been one of steady, continuous growth. Year after year, this business has increased, without ever a single setback, as the circle of its friends has kept con- stantly widening. Such growth would not have been possible if Fuchs had not kept its pledge to the public Stability in a retail business must be grounded in the satisfaction of the public. Permanence cannot be built on shifting sands. Fuchs has never relaxed and never will relax in its purpose: “To sell merchandise of taste and quality at lowest-in-the- city prices”’ Others may imply that the quality of their merchandise is superi i 7 é ly that tk ° perior, by this claim endeavoring to justify higher prices. After years of successful stuve-keapitig it seems almost superfluous for us to assure or customers that whatever they, buy, here must be of satisfactory, quality and exactly as represen Hone Our aim is not to sell low-priced merchandise but t sell good merchandise at low prices, And the fact that our customers keep coming back in ever-increasing numbers is proof enough that do this to their satisfaction. apc Quality for quality, our prices are positivel bel F all competitors, and often much lower. cine This is no reckless pledge or boastful challenge. It is the basic poli f usi- ness, and to it we attribute most of our growth. Our cash bavi. te otctaorat our organization, our constant vigilance over competition enable us to keep this pol- icy in perpetual operation.
