our Straightforward arguments in

1t is but logical that this condition

We have tried to drive home the fact
that many batteries are from three
to six months worn out when finally
placed in the consumers car. By the
exclusive Prest-O-Lite process of
manufacture which enables the bat
terry to be shipped to its destination
without the deteriorating acids and

we are extending ourselves to edu-

petent sales force. An up-to-date re-
pair shop, equipped with modern ap-
proved machinery, in charge of exper-
fenced mechanics, will be opened in
each of these new stores-sales and
service under one roof.
THREE STRINGS OF STORES
After these places are opened we
shall have three strings of retail
stores, namely, our present implement
stores, our recently acquired hardware
stores. and our Ford and Fordson
stores. They will be entirely separate
and distinct, each from the other.
Another fixed principle of our busi-
ness policy is ECONOMY. To the
end that our handling cost shall be
minimum and our retail prices low
For purposes of economy we shall con-
tinue the following departments at
our headquarters:
First: Purchasing Department. An
experienced buyer for each Of these
chains of stores will be retained.
Second: Shipping department
Practically all merchandise will be
shipped in carload quantities from the
factories direct to our central ware
house, and distributed to our branches
by our fleet of trucks.
Third: Accounting department. All
accounting and correspondence will be
handled in single department in our
general office.
Fourth: Price department. In this
department all prices for all stores
will be figured, and every individual
sale re-checked. to the end that no one
shall be inadvertently overuharged.
Fifth: Credit DEPARTMENT. A single
credit manager will supervise cred. Its

A managerial staff, having general
supervision over this entire system,
will be located at headquarters.

Naturally some time must elapse
before this plan can be worked out,
for practically all of these business
blocks must be built especially for us
In the meantime we shall continue to
sell the Ford car and its parts through
our eneraliimplement stores But we
shall handle the Fordson and its i'm
