pitality on a
large scale is one of the
privileges that go with
the keeping of tn e
greatest Store in the
world.
Where the private in
dividual entertains his
tens Of guests at a time.
or maybe his hundred
if he owns a great
mansion, and where the
great hotel ministers to
its thousands, this great
Store has played host in
a single day to guests
whose number, by ac-
tual count, exceeded
100000.
And every day sees
its thousands of visi-
tors, more thousands
some days, fewer on
others, but always a
great throng coming
and going; some enter
ing the Store for but a
few moments, others
remaining for hours.
Some are Philadel-
phia citizens who know
Wanamaker's as we'll as
they know their own
homes; some are visi-
tors, frequently dis
tinguished ones, from
distant States or even
countries, to whom this
far-famed Store is one
of the not-to-be-omitted
sights of the Quaker
City; while others are
our out = of wn
friends, who, whatever
the occasion of their
taking a run down to
Philadelphia" would
count that day lost" if
they did not run in to
Wanamakers"-
The Store where
everybody fe els at
home.
The Store whose at
mosphere of hospital
ity, of non-insistence on
buying, of personal
freedom on the part of
all who come in and of
personal welcome ex-
tended by all who are
here, became a byword
a generation ago, and
by the second genera
tion is taken as a thing
for granted
The finest compli-
ment that could be paid
to it!
ITO be given the op-
l. portunity to serve
is the biggest part of
the reward for the Gre
alton of a big business.
That the service NAV
be fuller, especially to
to those friends who
visit us from out of
town and sometimes
have not a complete ac-
quaintance with the
Store, a new and unique
feature has been added
within recent months to
the Stores equipment
in hospitalities.
We have appointed a
small staff consisting of
several ladies to act as
our personal represen-
tatives in placing all the
services and facilities of
the Store at the visi-
tors disposal.
They may be describ-
ed as Store Hostesses.
