Our Mail Order Service
SUCH service' as we render today to the out-of-town customer would have
been thought an impossibility only a few years ago.
The country resident now Kas his rural mail route, telephone and receives a
daily paper. Instead of waiting a week, or- once a month to visit the town and
make his purchases from small, limited stocks
He has a Meier & Frank big, complete catalog and watches the advertisements.
He orders over the long-distance telephone at our expense
The purchase is shipped by us the same day and often arrives by the rural
carrier (if sent by mail) the following day.
Through all our advertisements appears the line "Order by Mail." This is
to let you know quantities are sufficient to fill orders by mail. Through this
modern mail order service, out-of-town patrons are offered all the shopping
privileges that Portland people enjoy in person.
