Than Ever Before
An Open Letter 20 Clarence Bixby,
Manager Of The Wilmington Store
From the Home once,

hoCuesleIs N. I .
Dear Mr.. Bixby:
For % years we have been in the
Credit Clothing business and during
that time our confidence in the honesty
and integrity of the working people has
grown from year to year
1t has always seemed that the more
confidence we placed in the people the
more our business grew; at any rate in
% years We have grown from one store
to 73, we own our own factory and are
twice over the largest credit clothiers in
the world.
We believe that it is generally under
stood in Wilmington that with our
unexcelled manufacturing facilities we
are able to sell on credit at as low a
price as any cash store.
We have just decided to offer more
liberal terms than ever to those who
favor us with their patronage and we
believe that the people who want new
and stylish clothes, hats and shoes for
men. women and children will appre-
ciate our very liberal No money down
terms. For the benefit of the people
who have not yet purchased their VIM
ter clothing you can make this letter
public.
Yours respectfully,
