A COOL CUSTOMER will buy more goods than a warm one will in hot weather. A cool customer will buy with less palaver. He or she will be better natured, less cranky and easier to sell to; and' you know it. Moreover, you yourself, and your employes, will be in a better selling mood if your store is cool and pleasant than if it is stinky and suffocating and savors of a boiler room in its stiflingness. The Electric Fan is a blessing and a cheer which you can ill afford to ignore. Life in the dog days is a question of degrees. Make your place of business habitable and inviting to the people, and the trend of trade will be in your direction. It stands to reason it's logical it's apparent. Why not invest a little mow in trade-winning cool ness? Electric Pans will create a tempting and delightful breeze, and in every breeze there'll be dollars for you.
