E. L. & P. Co.
Jii the rush of the busy busi
ness day the ood principle of
courtesy is easily overlooked.
Sometimes a business institu
tion appears to be a cold machine
instead of an organization of
warm-hearted, human, regular
fellows most business people
really are.
Every courtesy, every order,
no matter how large or small, is
.worthy an expression of appri
ciution.
Our wish is that this may ex
tend our sincere thanks for the
business you entrust to us and to
make you feel that we are always
at your service.
