1t used to be necessary for
those who really demanded assort-
ments and service to go to New
York to shop. Your suburban
shopper was a rarity.
Things are different today.
| personally know at least fifty
REPRESENTATIVE WOMEN
of Newark and vicinity who, up
to three years ago, bought little or
nothing in Newark, but who now
buy EVERYTHING at Bamber-
gers. These fifty women of my
acquaintance represent but an in
hnitesimal part of the great shop
ping group which has turned from
the metropolitan stores of New
York to the one METROPOLI-
TAN STORE OF NEWARK.
Bamberger's deliveries have
more than quadrupled in Mont
clair and surrounding towns. The
same is true of the Oranges and
other suburban places. The deliv-
cry department. is the true barom-
eterof a business.
Stocks and service. Stocks and
service. Stocks and service. Two
vigorous factors of success. The
Bamberger store carries as large
and as complete stocks of good
merchandise as the best New York
stores, while in point of service,
believe the best New York stores
could learn much from this estab-
lishment. not only believe it, |
KNOW 1T. And you know it.

deed, the founders used to say to
themselves: Some day we shall
shorten our hours of work so that
our people will have more time for
rest and recreation. Some day we
shall close our store at 6 o'clock
Saturdays"
The years rolled by and New
ark grew away from SMALL
TOWN CUSTOMS and became a
GREAT METROPOLIS. The
time was ripe for the abolition of
the provincial habit of keeping
open Saturday nights.
Nov is the time to throw off
the yoke" said the founders. They
threw off the yoke. The store
closed at 6 o'clock sharp Saturday
nights. The business grew and
prospered as it never prospered
before.
During the Christmas season,
Just passed, the subject of not keep
ing open nights came up for dis
cuSSion.
rs not the Newark public suf-
fciently metropolitanized to ac-
custom itself to shopping during
the day?' asked the founders.
''Why, then, should we follow the
villagecustom of keeping our store
open nights, to the very positive
detriment of our employees? We
shall remain closed"
The Bamberger store remained
closed the six nights preceding
Christmas and did, by an over
whelming percentage, the LARG-
EST BUSINESS EVER DONE
IN NEWARK.

when | say that L. Bamberger &
Co. will never again be open Sat-

VIII.

Liberality is a little word, but
it is pregnant with meaning.
The founders of the Bamber-
ger store do not claim to have orig
mated the practice of refunding
money for unsatisfactory pur-
chases; distinguished Philadel-
phian attended to that while the
present owners of this store were
lads in school. The Bamberger
store did, however, inaugurate the
custom in Newark and thereby
built up a great business.
Many of those who read this
story will recall the little shop that
opened up twenty-three years ago
in the old Hill & Cragg store. 1t
was a small place even in those
days-but it was liberal.
The little shop Of twenty-three
years ago is Newark's foremost
store today. Has IFS remarkable
growth stunted its liberality? BY
no means. The great store of to-
day is more liberal than the little
store of yesterday. 1t can afford
to be liberal. Liberality pays i'm
mense dividends-not cash divi-
dends, but the dividends of public
satisfaction, which are more to be
desired = and HARDER TO
EARN.
The liberality | speak of is not
altogether that of satisfying you
when you have real or fancied
grievance. The liberality of the
Bamberger store is greater and
more far reaching than that. There
is literally of management; iiber-
ality in treatment of employees;
liberality of thought and action,
and best of all, the liberality which
enables this store to put out dol
lar where it will not, apparently,
yield full hundred cents worth
of returns Immediately. This is
the liberality of the merchant who
sees beyond the shining discs Of
his own polished spectacles. 1t is
this sort of broad-minded liberal
ity that has caused Bamberger's
to reach up and up and up. | do
not know of another store where
the expenditure of dollar is con-
sidered as little-when it is known
that that dollar will do some future
good. This is an admirable quail
ity-an almost distinctive Bam-
Der quality, | might say.

ture of Newark and for the
future of their associates.
1t is difficult for me to tell
you how grateful this store is
for YOUR help, YOUR good
will and YOUR moral sup
port. Mr.. Bamberger and
Mr.. Fuld realize that without
this good will and whole
hearted interest, their efforts
would have been for naught.
They realize that YOU have
made this store what it is,
and | assure you they are not
without appreciation.
1t has always been Gus
tomary for this and other
stores to publish graceful
little cards of thanks the day
before or the day after
Christmas. | believe Bam-
berger's was the only
store in Newark that
failed to do so. The omis-
sion was intentional-DE-
LIBERATE. No simple card
of thanks could possibly con-
vey to you the grateful and
deep-seated appreciation of
this firm. A meeting was
held and it was decided to
prepare whole page to be
published in The Evening
Star the Monday after New
Years. This is the page.
This is the manner in which
the Bamberger store has
chosen to thank you. And,
believe me, its thanks are
sincere. My only regret is
that these words of apprecia-
ton must lose so much of
their warmth by being print
ed rather than spoken.
Ambition is a relentless
task master. | sometimes
wish | did not have so much
ambition. | know | would
not have to work so hard.
The ambition of this store
is not only to be the best
managed, the best equipped
and the MOST PROGRESS
SIVE STORE IN NEWARK
which ambition has been
realized-but to be the best
managed, the best equipped
and the most progressive
store in the country. Who is
to say that even this latter
ambition may not be real
lied? Ambition itself is a
wonderful thing, but the
realization of ambition is
SUBLIME.
| was talking with a Dry
Goods Economist reporter no
later thanlastFriday. He told

in all your life you will read
this one.
Don't call me an egotist,

call me an enthusiast because

ing more or less of kill

You are going to- read
every word of this advertise
ment-not because it is well
written, for it is not-not be-
cause it scintillateS with hui
NOR, for it is somewhat dull
but because | believe that
you take as keen an interest
in this business as | do.
The present active heads
of this store are not going to
see the proofs of this page
until it is set in type, and |
earnestly hope that they will
not change a word or a para
graph of it.
Now let us get down to
business:
| am not going to bore you
with dry statistics nor nause-
ate you with empty plati-
tudes. You want FACTS. |
am going to give them to
you.
The year just passed was
the greatest in the business
history of our country.
Smith, Brown & Co., of Enid,
Okla, wound up its calendar
year with the most notable
gain on record. The great
store of Marshall Field &
Co., of Chicago, did more
business, by a big margin,
than ever before in its his
tory. What is true of the
little town of Enid, Okla,
and the great city of Chicago
is also true of every city and
hamlet and tiny crossroads
in the United States. Dame
Prosperity has been lavishly
impartial with her bounty.
1t is not without pardon
able pride that the Bamber-
ger store points to the larg-
est years business in its his
tory, or to be blunt-to the
LARGEST YEARS BUSI-
NESS IN THE RETAIL
HISTORY OF NEWARK.
This store got practically all
the business that it could
take care of-and deserved
all that it got. Why? Be-
cause the men at the head of
the business are not so vital
ly concerned in the making

Y.
| want to say something
about the Bamberger store
and its relation to its en-
ployes. There has always
been some opposition to pub
fishing much about what this
store does for its people.
Those at the head of the
business think the public is
not interested. | think the
public is VERY MUCH in
terested.
The Bamberger store pays
HIGHER SALARIES than
any other store in Newark.
1t follows, therefore, that the
Bamberger store has first call
on the very best class of help.
A good salesperson is a valu-
able asset. | believe that
much of the success of this
store is attributable to the in
telligence of its helpers and
to their unflagging enthusi-
asm and loyalty. Bamberger
employees are CONTENTED
AND HAPPY, and content
ment breeds efficiency.
This was the first store in
Newark and one of the first
in the country to establish a
school of salesmanship and
efficiency for its employees.
They are taught by conpe-
tent instructors how to ap-
proach customers-what to
say and how to say it. They
are taught to know their
wares intimately, and how
their wares are made and
where they are made. This
educational work makes bet
ter salespeople and better
salespeople earn better sal
aries. Your Bamberger
salesperson is not a mere au-
salesmanship is a
science here. Our people are
TRAINED SPECIALISTS.
tits true, at Christmastime
we were obliged to engage
eight or nine hundred extra
helpers, who possibly did not
know their stocks as init
mately as the regular force.
You must make allowances
for these people. They made
mistakes, but for all that
they served us faithfully and
we'll. They enjoyed their
short sojourn here and were
h happy. The Bamberger
store is indebted to them.
