Thrift Is Wise
Spending
Not Miserly
Saving
THE Qualities of West's leadership
aid your spending wisely at this
store whether at clearance prices
or any other, season of jthe year,
, You cannot expect to observe Thrift Week lo a better advantage than
by dcteimininp; to spend moie wisely in the months to conic to spend
carefully, with attention given other things than a mere price.
' i
West's policy which hits maintained out-standing leadership for thin
siore for more than a quarter century has always been that we could
, best aid our customers in the practice of thrift and saving by selling the
utmost in quality the best quality whether the item be an inexpensive
necessity of an expensive luxury.
We, and hundreds of customers who have found increasing satisfac
tion here through the years, have found that to buy quality is lo prac
tice thrift. Quality pays. Good materials, skilled workmanship, expert
styling, careful attention to details these elements in merchandise some
times cosl slightly more than cheap, shoddy goods. IJut their dollar-for-.
dollar value is vastly more in proportion.
And West's Quality is a synonym (of Thrift because
West's is dependable, is reliable, and plays fair. You can
best practice Thrift this week and every- week by spending
wisely at "La Crande'js Leading Store for 23 Years."
