This store stands on an independent footing.
} We insist upon absolute freedom in conducting
business. We buy groceries at whole
sale and pay for them, and we reserve the right
to fix own margin of profit 1t is not our
desire to fleece the people. We are satisfied
} with reasonable profit. We decline to be a
party to any combination association whose
object is to raise the price of living who combine
to make people pay an unnatural profit for the
necessities of life. Our stand is in the interest
of the people and the fight being made against
, us is a fl 5ht against the people. We propose to
sell groceries just as sell everything else in
this store-at the lowest possible price and make
living profit II others quote you q price be-
low what we are selling for now, is it not an
open acknowledgement that they We're charging
you an unnatural and Unfair profit before?
