Why Sixty Merchants Say jghting Pays Good L Sixty merchants were asked this question "What has better lighting done for you?" Their answers, reduced to simplest form, are given here. , , s 1. Better lighting adds attractiveness and value to even the best merchandise. 2. Belter lighting shows the true value of mer chandise, thus reducing the returned goods Droblem. Better lighting creates an atmosphere of cheerfulness which affects customers and clerks alike. Better lighting instantly creates an impres sion of cleanliness, neatness and up-to-dateness upon even the least discriminating shoppers. 3. 5. Better lighting overcomes competition by at tracting trade from the poorly lighted stores. (1. Better lighting saves rent by enabling a store located in the middle of the block to compete with the corner store. 7. Belter lighting makes it possible to use every foot of floor space and eliminates dingy corners. 8. Better lighting brings out the true color and texture of materials, thus eliminating errors in matching goods. !). Better lighting pays for itself many times over, through the increased sales and quicker sales produced by it, for well-lighted mer chandise is already half sold.
