With all the constant sales noise about town we think the question is a fair one. We are always glad to answer it. This is what we tell them We buy and sell only standard, first-hand goods. We do not handle bankrupt stocks, imperfect goods, seconds, nor other least desirable merchandise. New goods of thoroughly reliable quality are almost con tinuously arriving at our store. Nothing remains b ere long enough to grow old, shop-worn, out of style, ex travagant at any price. We sell for cash. Thus we have the cash to pay for our goods. The large savings thus made are passed on to you. Our prices are fixed on the goods when they arrive. These prices afford only a moderate profit. There is no "mark up" here in the beginning to provide room for a "mark down" later.. We unfailingly and positively practice at all times ex actly the business policy we advertise. That is, the same fair, just and upright treatment alike to all always. . Our selling price is marked in 'plain figures on every article in our store. That price is the same for all. It maintains until the last of the goods is sold. Even if we were inclined to carry on jazzy, hip-hurrah sales- which we are not, we could not do so for our prices at all times are as low as is asked at the so-called sales for goods of the same quality. The tremendous purchasing power provided by the com bined requirements of our 571 Department Stores, enables us to quote prices in the beginning and at all times, that are the lowest consistent with new, fresh and thoroughly reliable and dependable goods. And it is these ideals of business practice that have made possible the unparalleled success and growth of the J. C. Penney Comuany since its first store was opened in Wyoming in 1902. Wlien there is a better policy, we will adopt it When a customer has once become acquainted with J. C. Penney Company Value, she realizes how needless it is for us to hold a sale. It is then that she appreciates the every-day opportunity which is her's to enjoy here. The J. G. Penney Co. Aims to merit your confidence and good will at all times
