With the inauguration of a new selling policy by the La Grande Groc

vision of grocery prices to pass our savings on to the consumer.
The wholesale house, by eliminating all salesmen, all broken package
buying, all credit losses, and by making only one delivery per day, have ef
fected a tremendous overhead saving that makes possible new low prices.
. As rapidly as these new prices are put in effect, our retail prices are
reduced so that you may immediately profit thereby. As a result, you will
buy as cheaply and as economically at Pattison's as at any service store in
La Grande. . .
More than that, you have the additional advantage of Pattison's ex
perienced service well known to La Grande housewives for twenty years.
