STAR—FRIDAY, SEPT. 21, 1917, PAGE 4 SEATTLE'S LARGEST UNION. STORE WE CATER TO THE MAN WHQ WORKS Building a -Workingman’s Store There’s no secret about the methods that have been employed in creating Seattle’s largest UNION Store—a big, busy store catering prin- cipally to men who earn a living by the sweat of their brow. ‘jie ie kre Standard quality merchandise, with an assort- ment so large that each individual requirement is suited to a nicety; one price — and that a fair one—to all patrons without discrimination; quick adjustment of the slightest question about any purchase, no matter how trifling. In other words, keeping every customer pleased and satisfied. er Underselling up-town stores, and this is an actual truth, may have a lot to do withthe trem- endous growth of the Carl Schermer store. A landlord who is not exacting, absence of all ex- travagance in store fittings, business-like man- agement in all departments, all these things help to hold down the prices. ° : eee Heavy work shoes, and good substantial dress shoes such as the average well-dressed workman wears, are sold here far below the price of most other stores. Likewise Men's Clothing. It is still possible to find a stylish, well-made Suit or Overcoat of good material for $15—if you buy at - gimage 8 And if you care to pay as much as $20 or $25, you can choose from the very newest, snappiest and most attractive hand- tailored garments of the present season.
