The Steady Return
The Cash Grubutcrla Grocery was the first on tbc Held
to establish a store that eliminated all the red tape of soliciting
orders at your back door, employment of n bookkeeper to fig
urc your account, cut out tbc anytimcinthe-daydclivcry and
a collector to chn.se after you to get you to pay your bill.
The innovation took from the start and the steady return
of the customers tells the story of our ability to carry a splcn.
didly assorted Mock of all the good things for the table. You
can sense the prosperity of the store the minute you step in
to it.
It has come because we have given the public whut they
want at the prices they want, deliver at a regular hour and
deal with you its we would be deult with were we the cits
tomer and you tbc store owner.
