Eternal vigilance is the price of business success—vigilance in buying, vigilance in carrying stock, vigilance in selling.
Economical Buying.
One merchant can buy as advantageously as another, so far as price 1b concerned. Economy consists in buying just the right kind of goods and the right amount, so as to have what your customers want without having a lot of stuff they do not want.
Economical Carrying
Large stocks are accumulated more often from failure to exercise vigilance in buying than because there iB a demand for them, and are then an entirely unnecessary expense which must be borne by the patrons of the store.
Economical Selling.
Many merchants think they must always have salesmen enough to wait on the busiest crowd during the busiest part of the busiest day of the week, even though onehalf of them are necessarily idle during all of the balance of the week. This is very expensive selling, which must be borne by the patrons of the store.
WE PRACTICE
economy in buying by never overbuy ingjeconomy in carrying stock by supplying the needs of our customers from a small, up-to-date stock economy in selling by working the harder ourselves during the rushes and employing no help —hence our small running expenses and low prices.
