Service! We thoroughly agree with Uncle Sam: “Better a week eatly than a day late.” Just let a gift arrive too late, and the entire purpose of giving is out of harmony! In order to avoid delays, to help you in every possible manner, we have in- stalled aid stations in the most convenient locations throughout the storc. The Special Service Bureau On the Third Floor—is a relief to busy Christmas chopners who ap- preciate the assistance it renders. Information on subjects apper- taining to mail, express—in fact, many points that arise in the sending of packages. Parcel Post, regulation mail, parcels wrapped, and scores of ac- commodations that will make your Christmas shopping easier. Early in the day Early in the week Is ‘a good maxim to follow, for then every one is in the ascend- ancy, fresh for the day’s work, and you'll not only find it more pleasant from a personal and service standpoint, but naturally stocks are spic and span when freshly placed on the counters. Elevator Service Qur system of elevator service was carefully studied, and we ar- rived at what seems to be “the "greatest good to the greatest number.” You will notice that we eliminate unnecessary stops wherever possible, making it less tiresome and confusing for you. Carry Small Parcels Requiesting this favor, we are not thinking of ourselves, for it is our duty to serve the public to the very best of our ability, and the Washington public knows how we endeavor to do so. We do it en- tirely for your own convenience, for try hard as we may, delays might occur, and we feel that every well-disposed person will comply with this request for their own convenience and in order to co-operate in bringing about a perfect shopping system during the holidays. Last, but not least, MERCHANDISE and VALUE Never in the sixty-one years of I.ansburgh & Brother’s mercan- tile experience, have we been in a better position to serve our es- teemed patrons than at this time. More complete stocks, values that seemed almost impossible when we set about preparing for the Christmas season. However, we are grateful to state that we DID SUCCEED, and we now pass along the good fortune to those who have helped us make this store successful in its service to you as well as in its just profit to us. Thank you. Six floors of worthy merchandise Embroidered Pillowcases Gift Boxed $1.69 Pair Pretty Pillowcases, made of “Fruit - of - the - Loom” muslin, hemstitched and embroidered.
