Georges Thanks Friends Who Have Helped Put Store Among Leading Concerns. I want to take this opportunity to thank my thousands of New Britain friends and those in neighboring communities for the splendid vote of confidence they have given me since I founded this business two years ago.

He didn’t know how “square on the head he was hitting the nail.” k We have to have our little “put-in” with this fellow who drives nails so splendidly. We agree with him from shoe leather up. George Wash- ington never did a better job of telling the truth. If you're an honest man or woman, you know whereof we speak. CREDIT is SOME- THING your REPUTATION entitles you to. Don’t let any one “kid” you. Keep your eyes wide open—AND ON THE PRICE TAG. LIS- TEN TO SALES TALK BUT read those little prices. Demand dollar for dollar value RE- GARDLESS of how you're paying and see to it that you get it. WE ARE NOT A CREDIT STORE. BUT WE believe in CREDIT because it provides a means for EVERY ONE to own things they de- sire instead of a SELECT FEW who by master- ing the art of SELF DENIAL, are able to mus- ter together early in life the price to pay. But we do not feel that we are cutting oft an arm to give you credit. We are perfectly frank in saying that manufacturers extend us credit. It is a NECESSITY in business today and every store takes advantage of it regard- less of how they sell to you. WHEN THEY DON'T IT'S USUALLY BECAUSE THE SHERIFF HAS TACKED A SIGN ON THE DOOR. We pass credit on to you because we think you are entitled to it. An honest face buys ANYTHING IN THIS STORE on CREDIT and we don’t care how dirty is the face. Ask for our Deferred Payment Plan. B. GEORGES Says: “Friendly Relations Built This Business!” Six thousand satisfied customers have placed their seal of approval upon this estab- lishment. * This remarkable growth in two years could ONLY be attained through unquestioned satis- faction. It is a tribute to the loyalty of a buying pub- lic. It proves that people will read, will com- pare, and will go OUT OF THEIR WAY TO PATRONIZE A STORE THEY BELIEVE IN. When people walk past other jewelry stores, to walk in here—there must be some reason. Highest quality merchandise at lowest prices—friendly treatment and conscientious service are principal reasons responsible for the success of this business. The continuance of this policy is my Per- sonal Pledge to every customer—old and new. B. GEORGES, Square Deal Jeweler. “OUR CREED” I believe in the goods I sell T wouldn't sell an__vthmgz that Abe Lincoln wouldn't guarantee —is that good enough? I believe that honest goods can be sold a honest profit—and I don’t want any national holiday named after Georges just hecause I tell the truth. I believe in working—in laughing—and in boosting—in today and in the work I am doing —and in tomorrow. Tomorrow is but the mir- ror of yesterday’s satisfaction. I believe in cowrtesy—in kindness—in gen- erosity—in good cheer and friendship and in honest competition—in making hig customers out of the little ones and “Georges'” customers out of natives of New Britain. I believe that a man gets what he goes after —I am after the biggest jewelry business in New Britain—TI'll get it—because I have great faith in human nature—and in the city of New Britain. I believe in open-minded people in politics. Mayor Angelo Paonessa, George Quigley, and Mr. Weld are all nice fellows. B. GEORGES. THE WEATHER Fair and warmer for Main at East Main Street always. AND BEST JEWELRY STORE ORE EASTER Sterling Silver Thimbles for a Dime to Be One of the Features at Georges’ Store Birthday. No need for any New Britain woman to be without a fine Silver Thimble after Saturday, says Mr. Georges, jeweler, whose store will raise its cur- tain on its second great anni- versary event from 10 a, m. till 9 p. m. with a sale of Thimbles at, Special, Dime a Throw! He expects thousands of peo- ple in the store for the opening on Saturday and Thimbles will be ready Saturday morning. Walk right in, smile and throw a dime. We'll wrap the Thim- ble up, smile, and you're on your way, unless, of course, you want to remain for the rest of the party. Bughouse Fables Some hints to the young folks from one who speaks with authority on the subject, “Love”: It is not leap year—sleep year. But make the most of oppor- tunity, girls. Every young man should carry a Georges Diamond in his vest pocket. N Good - lookers are looking right now. Girls who look around and make comparisons get the best bargains. Don’t “sit tight" if you want to “sit pretty.” Get the Ring or you may get the gate. If he talks “waiting” till times get normal, girls, start looking elsewhere. He may get normal himself. Anyway, it's cheaper to “set- tle down” than to stay single and keep “settling up.” And tie the knot with a Georges Wedding Ring. Not a seam, not a divorce in a thousand. You may not get another chance soon. See me before you see the parson, And say it with flowers, but do it with Jewelry. And step lively! —B. Georges. | \ { [ | When a Customer Buys a' Diamond He Largely “Buys It on Confidence,” Says B. Georges, Jeweler, “and for that reason our firm is particularly anxious to see that each purchaser gets a Quality Diamond.” To the average buyer the se- ection of a Diamond is like ouying real estate in Siberia. Ie buys it sight unseen. We have an ironclad rule 1ere never to misrepresent our merchandise. If we say a Dia- mond is perfect, blue white, so many points, our customers have come to know that we mean it and that we are ready to back up any assertion we make on a Diamond as well as any other merchandise. I am in business in New Britain because I believe it is a good city to do business in. My home is here and my money is here; that's why I am most particular that as near as possible all the gamble in buying a Diamond is taken out of the purchase of a stone from B. Georges. We are proud of our mer- chandise because it is known merchandise, nationally adver- tised and backed by makers who stand behind our own per- sonal guarantee to you. On a policy of quality mer- chandise and dependability we are building our business, and hat the public is appreciative e facts is evidenced by a splendid patronage v are now giving us. Here one will find the types of fine merchandise handled in most exclusive jewelry houses —Rogers “1847” Community Silver- & Edwards and Williar rors & Sons Flat Ware In Watches there are Elgins, Walthams, Hamiltons, Illinois, Hampdens, Bulovas and other fine timekeeping Wrist Watches for women. Such famous designs of Pearls as Bluebird, “Orientos,” as well as many jewelry novel- ties from the foremost houses of America.
