Business growth tells briefly our
reason for moving from GOA Pa. Ave.
TO 636 Pa. Ave. Our new home is
nearly twice the size of the old. We
have equipped it with every modern
convenience known to an up-to-date
liquor business, and we believe we
have the finest establishment of the
kind in the National Capitol. We
laid our plans very carefully in con-
structing our new building, and have
spared nothing that would promote
comfort or convenience. In our new
quarters we will be better able than
ever to handle local business and will
be particularly well equipped to look
after our mail order business, which
is increasing every day, and has
made this the leading mail order
house of Washington, We attribute
our phenomenal business growth as
a tribute to the merits of the goods
we sell.
