A prominent tire manufacturer says
that an excellent way to prevent hard

then be carefully dried and partly
inflated before being hung up again.

first for things which their home town stores could not
supply. Later they returned, and they continue coming
finding the service here the merchandise the prices, the
very atmosphere of the place little more to their liking
than anywhere else.
Gradually and with ever increasing momentum
Cenung's has firm footing in Westchester
Genung's has always been di6crcnt-they have
tried to be-founded with the idea that store was sue
cessfu in proportion to the service rendered in COM
munity Genungs has always been pioneer in West
