WHAT MILFORD
OFFERS SHOPPERS
BETTER VALUESFOR The MONEY PAID
OUT BY PURCHASING FROM The
MILFORD MERCHANTS.
WILMINGTON IS NEXT STOP
BUT IF YOU:CAN'T FIND 1T In MILFORD
STORES, GET IT IN The CITY OF
WILMINGTON ANYWAY.

, Ten reasons why people should
buy in Milford:
First. The people in this territory
should buy in Milford because they
get better value for their money, and
see and know what they are buying,
with fitting and alterations quickly
and we'll done.
Second. Because when buying
from a mail order house, you pay be-
fore you see the goods, often getting
an inferior article that will not retain
its shape and color, thereby losing
postage and time.
Third. Because you have an op-
portunity to select from many differ
ent styles, have personal choice Of
color best suited to you, fit guaran-
teed and alterations free, which no
mail order house will do.
Fourth. Because you pay less mon
ey for same quality of goods here, get
what you want when you want it,
pay when you get same; not two or
three weeks before you get it as you
would be Obliged to do were you to
send away.
Fifth. Because money in circula-
ton makes good times in your own
town instead of somewhere else, and
prosperity makes wages higher and
property values more valuable.
Sixth. Buy at home because the
more sales are made the more labor
ers and help will be required, and
fewer people out of work, consequent
ly more happy and cOntented citizen
ship.
Seventh. Because buying in Mil
ford will necessitate more stately and
modern buildings, more civic pride,
more industries, more happy homes,
keep alive patriotism and bring bet
ter opportunities.
Eighth. Buy in Milford and help
the merchants to enlarge their stores
and carry a greater assortment and
variety of goods from which to
choose.
Ninth. Because if your dealer does
not have exactly what you want, his
experience will enable him to get it
for you much quicker and it will give
better satisfaction than it would
should you order same from mail or
der house.
Tenth. Buy in Milford rather than
spend money going on railroad to
some other city, as there is as up-to-
date and as good stores here as will
be found in much larger cities, and
the price of your trip will pay for
your garment and it will look and
wear just as well.
But, if you can't get what you want
here-make up an auto party and mo-
tor to WilmingtOn-Our own home .
city. Keep Delaware money circu-
Iating in Delaware.

PUTTING STAG ON
TUB MILL ROAD

The Kent County Levy Court Com
missioners have had the county engi-
neer of Kent county survey the road
leading from Milford to the du Pont
Boulevard, north of town, and the
Supervisor for the Tenth Representa-

past few days placing Stag on a por-
tion of the road. From the city limits
to a point about half way to the du
Pont road the road has a tarvia sur
face and is in excellent condition.
From this point to the boulevard,
however, the road has been miserable.
