tell how many.
As Quickly as I could I ordered

slble assistance. They acted
- quickly and were able to take
many people out of the water.

men could not tell. They did not
report seeing any one sink but
t the water was pretty cold and
those taken out were suffering
from exposure."

y commandant of Goat Island, spoke
eommendlngly of Lieut. Perron's
prompt and efficient action and
expressed satisfaction that the
nary men had had an opportunity
to be of assistance. "

Quality Is Our
Insurance
A successful merchant once said that he con-
sidered honesty the greatest single factor for suc
cess in retailing. "Build integrity into your busi-
ness" he advised, "and you not only safeguard it
but your contribution to the community you live in
is immeasurable."
Wie words! And that Is one of the reasons
why, we pay so much attention to the quality of ther
goods we sell. It is so easy, to skimp on a lining
or substitute inferior leather m the inner sole of a:
shoe. But then we would not be running an honest
business, and it would gradually crumble into ruinsJ
Selling honest merchandise at a fair price is
more than an ideal with us. It is our "insurance
policy" against failure.
