DEAR FRIENDS: i This has been SOME busy place the past twe or three days. I keep telling the boss it's the advertising that's bringing all this business but he doesn't warm up much to that suggestion. When business is quiet he says my ads are losing their punch. When business peps up he says it's the high quality of the work done by The Decatur Laundry. Can you beat that? Wish you’d tell him you're reading these ads. He’s a nice fellow and all that, but I think he is holding out on me. BEN ZEEN DECATUR LAUNDRY “The Farr Way”
