The Westcott famtfy lives eleven mUea
out of town.
Once a week usually on a Saturday
Mrs. Westcott drives in to buy her
groceries at a Safeway store.
Saturday before Easter, the Westcott
hoys Jack, 9 and Tom, 7 rode into
town with their mother. They wanted to
be sure she bought egg dyes. (Easter egg
hunts were a family tradition.)
That evening, Mrs. Westcott set about
coloring eggs. Then she discovered that
the all-important dyes had been left on
the store counter.
With all stores closed, it seemed the
boys must miss their Easter egg hunt.
Then Mrs. Westcott answered a knock
at her door. Her Safeway grocer stood on
the doorstep, the forgotten package of
dyes in his hand.
To save two boys disappointment on
Easter Sunday, he drove twenty-two miles
after his day's work had ended.
BEING A GOOD NEIGHBOR to his Customers
and to all who live in his community
is part of your Safeway grocer's service plan.
He knows that thoughtfulness can make
warm friendships for his store just as surely as
low food prices.
More and more of bis neighbors, your Safe
way grocer finds, are coming to understand that
be is working at a job they want done.
That job is to lower food distribution costs
to eliminate wastes and needless expenses
in between farm and retail store.
The better your Safeway grocer does his job,
the larger his earnings will be So be works '
'vith'a family of food experts--a business team.
When Safeway buyers, warehousemen, truck-
vrs and home economists all help your Safeway
sfocer, money is saved.
This means your Safeway grocer can regu-:
larly sell you fine foods for less.

It means, too, that a larger share of each
food dollar spent at Safeway can be (and
- is) returned to the farmer. . 3L L. Bean,
