Washington's Birthday, February 22
A RARE combination of statesmanship and military
genius; an unusual embodiment of tenacity, unshakable
courage; a keen and militant sense of justice; these were the
great virtues of George Washington.
They represent the spirit of fairness which we should
strive for in our business relations which should manifest
itself in the sale of good merchandise, in the giving of
values, in the guarantee of satisfaction. In that spirit we are
trying to run this store.
