Modern Advertising

The "Old Timers" are perhaps not cogni-
SAINT OF the fact that the more they talk to
people about our cheap auction trash-just
so much free advertising We get. We are be-
levers in telling everybody what we have
through the medium Of newspapers, and al
the same time we fully appreciate the long
winded credit concerns in helping TO boom
us aIong-free OF charge-by calling us Cheap
John, &c.
not legitimately compete with us. 1t only
requires money, brains and pluck.
To the average person 1t sounds most alb
surd to hear our brothers-in- trade trying to
make believe that the quality OF their goods
is simon-pure and that Blllmyer's stuff is
nothing but old inferior auction trash. We
are most assuredly here 10 stay, and IL Is
barely plausible that we would offer only
cheap and shoddy goods, which would in time
keep people away from our ranch but the
people won't stay away. They are blessed
with good, sound, common sense (at least
a good many OF them, and are fiocking In
with their cash more lively than ever and TO
each and every purchaser we ex tend the priv
ilege TO compare our goods both as TO quality
and price with those OF any house they may
choose.
