RAWLINS GROCER
PRAISED @ ADV.
IN REPUBLICAN

II. e. Mcfarland, local Fifth Street
grocer, was very ~agreeably surprised
upon receiving his March copy of
THE International Grocer" a maya
zine OF peculiar interest to the mer-
chants engaged in that line of bust
Less; for it devoted considerable
space to the Rawlins grocery.
The subject Of the article which
appeared under the department head
ed How Other Stores Advertise"
was 8 six inch advertisement which
Mr.. Mcfarland had run in The Re-
publican entitled Talk. Don't Walk"
This was treated under the general
talk on Service. and what 1t mean
TO the grocer. Part Of the article
follows:
Service" has become one of the
weasel words OF business and IL not
come a joke. As one writer in the
Literary Review: the play on Service
is being done to death by the butcher.
the baker. and the candle stick
maker. What Is service. anyway?
Every organization progresses in d.
rect ratio to the amount and char
acter of service II renders" wrote
Roy Dickinson In Printers Ink, but
service is an intangible thing to Wis
ualize to q large number Of people.
1t means n thing to one person,
and = totally different thing to an
other.
I'm discussing a Congressional re-
port that forty-nine cents of every
dollar paid by the consumer goes
into what Is known as service. the
San Francisco Journal said: Service
Is an elastic term that covers modern
delivery systems, telephone orders,
credit departments. fancy packages,
welfare work. and a number OF new
tangled notions listed under over
head. Service Is that department Of
human activity that has to do with
the machinery OF distribution. includ-
Ing the processes that reach from
raw material to the finished product
on the table or back.
One OF the best definitions u SER
vice was given by q writer in the
Chicago Journal of Commerce: Ser
vice is the source of all profits In
business. Without service there can
be no business. because business IN
itself q service. defined in the En-
cyclopedia Of Religion and Ethics as
The systematic attention to those af-
fairs by which the necessaries and
comforts OF life are obtained and by
which social organization is sup
ported"
Delivery service was graphically
suggested BY II. z. Mcfarland OF
Rawlins. Wyo.. in this manner:
Talk. Don't walk" Why take
time from your household or social
duties to select and carry homo your
groceries! Phone 50 OF 80. Your
order will be carefully selected and
delivered promptly. No extra charge
for service.
