How Can Anyone Know Quality?
h Quality Goes Beyond the Metal on Jewelry
The established reputations of the jeweler
and manufacturer enable customers to know
they are getting fine quality.
Since 1928 we have always striven to merit
this confidence.
Buy Bonds For Victory!
PETERSON'S
r
Food and munitions are rushed to the front
in wood and paper packages. They arrive in
good condition, ready for use, protected by
forest products.
The reason you can't buy all the forest products you want
right now is because they will be at war until the armistice.
But they will make the comeback to peace almost overnight.
Because forest industries need little conversion from war production,
they have been called the "shock troops of employment." They
will be among the first of American industries to employ returning
soldiersthey and the many other industries dependent upon forest
products.
Our forests can continue to serve us, in peace or war, forever,
because, like all living things, they reproduce themselves.
