Working for You
....
It would be a great thing for ua to get tho trade of all the men in this
town.
But it would be a much greater thing to deserve it; to do business in such
a way that men would come to us, not because we wish they would, but be
cause they felt they had to for their own sakes.
That's what we're trying to make this store; some of our customers say
we've done it. '
The next thing, of course, is to give such service and such values that
when we once get a customer we'll always have him.
When we sell you Hart Schaffner & Marx clothes we're doing the best pos
sible thing for you; that's why these clothes are best for us.
The only way to' do that is to put his interest ahead of ours; to work for
him more than for ourselves. That's really the way to work for ourselves.
