INSPIRED-
BY WOMEN of the WEST
To the Western mother and housewife we feel we owe a debt of gratitude.
It is due to her inspiration that we have built food stores where every service
is complete. They have prompted our methods of distribution in order that they
might enjoy higher quality of fresh, appetizing foods at a more economical
price. We pay sincere homage to these women, whose high standards of living
and loyal patronage have made possible the progress of MacMarr Stores.
