Every Day Since the War
Began the M. M. Co. Has
Been Saving the People of
Western Montana Money

1t has ever been the rule of this House to so
conduct it's business that it's customers should
profit as much by buying here the stock
holders of the Company should profit by their
purchases When the war cloud descended we
chung to this rule, and turned deaf ear on
mercantile preaching, the general text being:
Take all you can force, and use your wits to
force more
Realizing early that the war would cause an
unusual drain upon supplies of merchandise of
all sorts, we brought our full purchasing power
into action in anticipation of higher costs,
thereby in countless instances saving money
for our customers---in fact it would be with
difficulty that one could point out any line in
which NJ NJ Co. Values have not led the state.
Mssoula---the whole of Western Montana
for that materials, thus, while saving most
who dealt here, saved something on whatever
was bought, regardless where the buying was
done; for it grew questionable to ask more
than the NJ. NJ Co.'s fixed steady prices.

This does not mean that our January sales

What Our Inventory Reveals
First---Our inventory reveals that we have
had reasonably successful year; and we are, of
course, grateful for the patronage that has
made this statement possible, and we are happy
to say that by virtue OF the business accorded
us the past year the Governments war chest
will be enriched to the full extent of its ex-
pectations from this source, thus, while profit
ing by buying here, our customers have indi-
rectly contributed to the needs of our country.
Second---That of our stocks Of staple mer-
chandise bought at pre-war prices many lines
have been sold out completely, while others
have been sold down until only limited quanti-
ties remain---of some lines enough for a
months selling, of others less, and of others
slightly more.
Third--That we have in our ownership
thousands of dollars worth of goods NOT
bought at prewar prices but at prices we have
good reason to believe will in the very near
future be looked upon low; while other
thousands of dollars worth of merchandise SIM
ilarly> bought cannot, we have equally good
We Will Maintain Last Years Prices
as Long as Possible, but Advances
Are Inevitable and Will Be Made as
Necessity Arises
In presenting the above statement we feel
that the thinking public will recognize it's JUS
tice and appreciate that nothing but necessity,
not arbitrary action, will cause us at any time
to advance single price.
In cases such as that of merchandise which
we have been selling until now or recently at
less than present regular retail value,
stocks of which that were bought at pre-war
prices being exhausted, immediate advances
are necessary and will, in accordance with the
policy herein declared, be made.
In cases such as those wherein we are selling
merchandise at less than present regular retail
value and of which we still have limited sup
plies, prices for the time being will remain sta
tionary, but in no instance is it likely that
present prices can be maintained longer than
until about the first of March.
In such cases as recited in the third paragraph
under the heading, what Our Inventory Re-
veals," our customers will, as time progresses
and prices advance and the scarcity of the par
ticular lines becomes more acute, derive Obvi-
Gus advantages.
