No Gambling With
Your Money
A good banker is more careful about his de
positors' money than his own. It's a duty he owes
those who put their trust in him.
That's the way we feel about this'store. The
things we buy, we have to sell. In the end they
are paid for by your money.
We are mighty careful to see that they are
good quality and good style. We buy them from
makers who have a reputation for these things.
We can't afford to gamble with your money. V
