He Knows Them By Name

The trade of the home mer-
chant is limited to the families Of
his community. He sells to the
same people year after year.
His customers are his friends
his neighbors. He knows them
by name. He is personally in
terested IN their welfare, and
thus, the home merchant Is a
safeguard to the com munlty. He
is afrlend, a helper, an adviser
to anyone who goes to him with
any problem in the matter of
buying. When your tooth aches
you go to the home dentist
When sickness comes, you send
for the home doctor, In ques
tions of law you go to the home
lawyer. When it comes to buy
ing you want the best values you
can get for your money; and for
this reason, you should go to
your home merchant. You
should talk with him freely and

frankly about the welfare of

talk with your dentist about your

health, or the lawyer about your

er your wants, your needs. Talk
price and quality and Quantity.
There are things, sometimes.
which we as buyers do not un.
derStand and which the home
merchant can make plain to US.
If you have not been 10 the habit
of having heart to heart talks
with your home merchant, you
will be surprised at the real good
be can do you-at the real ser
vice he can render in helping you
to get full value for your money.
Besides you will get to know
each other better, and that
means that you will be better
friends.
