Pay Cash for Meat and Save Money!

On October I we will begin selling on a strictly cash basis. Nothing will be charged to any body. Those who do not wish to pay for each purchase may buy coupon books good for s or $ i'll meat, and a discount of ten per cent will be made, mak- ing the books cost s2. 70 and s4.5o. Unused portions of these books will be redeemed in cash.
 The credit system has proved a failure and is just as bad for the consumer as for the dealer. By selling strictly for cash we expect to be able to furnish bet ter goods and to save money for our customers. We hope this action will meet the approval of our customers and we assure them that everybody will be treated exactly alike, no excep- tions being made to this rule. dtf
