GOING EAST TO

GOLDEN RULE STORE OWNER,
WIFE AND MISS METCALr DE.
PART FRIDAY MoRN1a FOR A
COMBINED BUSINESS JOURNEY

Mr.. and Mrs. Ed Vannice, accom-
panied by Miss Metcalf. will leave to.
morrow morning for New York city
where Mr.. vannice will meet other
buyers Of the chain of the Golden
Rule stores. Mrs. Vannice and Miss
Metcalf will stop in St. Joseph, Mis-
souri,. and visit with relatives until
Mr.. vannice completes his business
In New York.
In the chain of Golden Rule stores
are upward Of one hundred estab-
lishments. representing approximately
$2,000,000. While these stores are
not all directly connected financially,
they made it point to have their
buyers in New York at the same time
each year, and cooperate in that way.
Az there are about fifty of these
buyers. It Is easily seen that their
great purchasing power is something
to be- considered by the manufact-
urers and wholesalers. and the entire
chain Of stores reap the benefit of the
very best prices. which benefit is in
turn passed on to their customers.
