If I POSSESSED a shop or store, I'd drive the grouches off my floor!
I'd never let some gloomy guy Offend the folks who come to buy;
I'd never keep a boy or clerk With menial toothache at his work,
Nor let a man who draws my Pay Drive customers of mine away,
v I'd treat the man who takes my time And spends a nickel or a dime
With courtesy, and make him feel That I was pleased to close the deal,
Because tomorrow, who can fell? He may want stuff I have to sell,
And in that case, then glad he'll be To spend his dollars all with me;
The reason people pass one door To patronize another store,
Is not because the busier place Has belter silks, or gloves, or lace
Or special prices, but it lies In pleasant words and smiling eyes;
The only difference, I believe, Is in the treatmnt folks receive!
We btlieve In Edoar Guest's grind
philosophy of "GOOD BUSINESS"
and uie it at a jruid to our relations
and business dt.Ungi with the
people ol this community.
