Fine repairing a. specialty'-such
is the word that Clarence p. Rowell
Of Winthrop broadcasts in his ad-
vertising.
Those words--"Fine repairing a
specialty'-mean a lot these days
when there is too much rush and
hustle on repair jobs. But Mr. Row
ell is a jeweler and optician 1t is one
profession that deserves the word
fine" when applied to repairing and
Mr.. Rowell in the many years he has
been in business has more than made
good on this work
Winthrop should be proud of many
| things. 1t is a progressive place where
all are members of one big family
and everybody joins in to help every
one else. Mr.. Rowell. not only. in his
personal and fraternal relations, but
also in his business life has been
prominent in the affairs of Winthrop
His place of business, probably one
or the smallest in area in the town,
is. at the same time one of the best
The stock carried is of the thoroughly
modern and up to-date kind The
fittings for all kinds of repair work
associated with the business of being
a jeweler and optician are as good as
II is possible to obtain. These, COM
pined with the skill and painstaking
care of Mr.. Rowell make the work
turned out thoroughly satisfying.
/ 1t makes no difference whether il is
watch of the finest mechanism a
! pair of glasses or a bead necklace
that has come unstrung, the work will
| be the same-of the very best. The
, success Mr.. Rowell has achieved is
due to the fact that no matter how
small or apparently insignificant the
Joo may be, he is determined that il
shall be done as if it were the most
expensive in the world. 1t is little
wonder, then, that residents for
many miles around Winthrop take
their watches. their jeweIry and their
| glasses to him for repairs. Add to
| this pleasing personality and a live
interest In all that is going on and it
/ Is easy to understand why Dir. Rowell
IS so weil-lil<ed in his community.
