DOING A RUSHING BUSINESS
Past Week Has Been an EXceD-
tionally Busy One For the
Webster Business Men.

At this time of the year most of the
towns of the northwest are dull and
business is stagnant, but Webster is an
exception to the general rule. The
past week has been an exceedingly
busy one for Webster merchants, and
during the rush hours last Saturday
some of the stores found it practically
impossible to accommodate the many
the county to do their shopping. Not
since the rush days of the holiday sea-
son have the stores been so crowded
with eager purchasers and merchandise
been in such general demand.
Webster's fame as the best trading
point in northern South Dakota has
spread far and wide, as is evidenced by
the distance many come in order to do
their buying here. We doubt if there
is a town or district in the county which
has not been represented among the
crowds in Webster's stores during the
past week.
One thing which has added greatly to
Webster's popularity as a trading point
is the fact that every merchant con-
ducts his business upon a square deal
basis. Their sales are made upon this
basis, and when they cut prices in order
to clear out overstocks in certain lines
the purchasers know the cut in price
is not an imaginary one. The average
person generally buys his goods where
he is assured of a square deal and low
prices, and this fact is largely re spon-
sible for Webster's popularity as a
trading point.
