Service 920 SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT On and after November 15th no more groceries will be sold on credit in this store. We expect to sell fully . . T..J. as much as Deiore even more, jam all the sales will prefer cash. We are going to make the change in your interest as well as our own. What you are interested in is the fact that under the new deal we are going to sell you groceries for less money. You see, when we get cash we can pay cash, I his means a saving in our buying, and we shall pass the benefits along to you. We Bhall not, of course, get as much for our goods under the cash basis. But we shall get the money when the sale is made, and can afford to take less than if we had to wait thirty, sixty or nine ty days or more from our money. Why do we think this way? Why is it not just as good for a merchant to get his money at the end of. the month as it is to get it day by day. This is the reason: Every store that gives its customers lowest prices sells its goods on the closest margin. If we give you the benefit of these discounts, we will have to get th; discounts first. The way to get goods so they can be sold at right prices is to pay cash for them. When a merchant has to borrow money from his bank to discount his bills the banker gets a portion of the benefit in the form of interest a benefit that under ordinary circum stances should go to the customers. You will not be interested in a long drawn statement of the whys and wherefore? of the cash system benefits. It ia enough to say that were business in general conducted substantially on a cash basis prices would be lower. This is why we are going to adopt the cash system. No one need feel any sense of in jury at being asked to pay cash. The credit of most of our costumers is good. It isn't a question of getting the money that worries us, its mere ly a matter ofgetting lined up with the new way of doing things, the way that gets cash, pay cash and gives better values for less money. You don't have to take our word for our ability to save your money as a re suit of the new deal. Come in and see. All we ask is a chance to show you. Yours Truly W. E.
