(5)) ANMOUNCEMENT It is with a great deal of pleasure that we announce the opening of La Grande's New Stores "SERVEWEL GROCERS" Numbers 80 and 82. For sometime we have felt that greater economy was needed in the methods of food distribution, and we have now per fected the highest type of organization known, a large chain of wholesale houses com ..bineo with a' large chain of retail stores... The firm of Allen & Lewis, one of the oldest and largest wholesale grocery houses in the Pacific Northwest, has for a number of years owned and operated a chain of whole sale grocers. Now centered around each of these wholesale houses are retail stores. This makes in each district a wholesale house to serve as a warehouse, and a chain of retail stores to serve the consumer. Before establishing their retail .stores the La Grande Grocery Company, who are the wholesale branch of Allen & Lewis in this particular district, cut off every item possible from their expense budget, even eliminating their traveling salesmen. These expense savings are passed on to their retail stores, which, coupled up with the tremendous pur chasing power of a large chain of wholesale grocers, combined with a large retail chain, buying in tremendous quantities, and shipping into every community by the carload, en ables this "chain" to serve you at what we believe to be the lowest "Service Store" prices you have seen. For years Cash Store "chains" have been operating and it is particularly gratifying to us to be able to announce to our friends and customers this new idea, a Service Store "Chain." Our policy will be to sell QUALITY merchandise. Your money has a standardized value, good any place, or time, and we purpose to give you equal value in quality mer chandise in return for it. , ' We will gladly extend monthly crdeit (a convenient service) to responsible people. All such accounts must be paid in full by the 15th of the following month, the prices we are quoting necessitate such a rule. ; '.' . -. We will deliver free of charge, serve you promptly and courteously, with, permit us to repeat once more, "QUALITY-merchandise." SERVEWEL GROCERS No. 80 Located in the new L. C. Smith building on the corner Depot and Washington streets, is under the management of Mr. Clark Webb. . The Phone Number Is MAIN 680.
