Fifty-one years of honorable dealing have left their impress on community life. In the whirlpools and eddies of the commercial stream mere survival over any considerable period has significance. The store, equally with the indi- vidual, must square its compass with the verities to make port safely—to leave the print of its personality on the shift- ing sands of life. It must tell the truth about its goods; it must act the truth in its dealings with those who come to it for these goods. Its word must have that simple accent of authenticity which is expressed by the hallmark of the silversmith. Only thus may confidence be created and maintained. The item “good will” set out prominently in every computation of business:assets when translated meays nothing more nor less than confidence—the confidence of the buying public. That the Washington buying public has confi- dence in this institution, and has also a keen sense of valupes, the fact that we are now celebrating the 51st Anniversary of our business life attests. If further proof were needed, the enthusiastic re- sponse to our manner of celebrating it—the Anni- versary Reductions which took effect Monday— would seem to give this proof. ~Not a shoe in our stock at less than 10% off, and many at much greater discounts—a stock consisting of good shoes and nothing but good shoes, the same honest service-giving shoes which we have been selling for 51 years—these savings have a significance over and above the hue and cry of “sale.” Marking this occasion with profit concessions, we do so with - a definite purpose. This purpose is to attract more people o our store. - : During This Anniversary Sale 106p off - .
