Are YOU
expert as SHE?
THINK for a minute what if you had the house to run, meals to plan and
children to care for? Do you think you could do the job as well as your wife
does? On the same amount of money? Be honest.
The housewives of the nation study and know their jobs. They read the
advertisements regularly. They keep themselves informed of the best offer,
ings of the stores. They are expert purchasing agents,
These purchasing agents, from necessity or individual desire, aim to makt
every dollar spent return a full one hundred cenU' worth in value. They
know their needs. They know through the advertisements just where these
needs can be best supplied and at the least cost. Such intelligent buying
saves time and effort and money. It results in a management of the home
that is truly efficient.
Here's some good advice for all of us. Read the advertisements. Read
their, ivery day. Through them we can know exactly what we want before
we go to buy. This is the surest way of securing full value for every dollar
you spend.
