The Nome Brass Band went to the Maynard-Columbus Hospital on May 30th. at the conclusion of the Memorial Day services in A. B. Hall, and serenaded the sick folks there. The band played two very fine selections for the patients, and then entered the hospital and shook hands with the sick. The band was under the able leadership of A. L.

The development of mining proper

its establishment the store at Lowell
outgrew it's rented quarters and the
commodious building which 1t now oe-

Event, Says Local Manager
BY c. c. MCBRIDE
Manager Douglas Store, Phelps Dodge
Mercantile Company

The 41st birthday Of Phelps Dodge
Mercantile company is an event of
which our company is very proud
Forty-one years of service to the peo-
pie Of cochse county, Al years with
providing them with merchandise of
quality, Al years of selling merchan-
disc at fair prices.
We know of no better way to cele-
brate our 41st birthday than to place
on sale at special offer for the next
two weeks the best merchandise which
our great buying capacity can procure
at the very lowest prices possible.
There are hundreds of merchandise
firms in the United States with whom
the Phelps Dodge Mercantile company
has transacted business for many,
many years. And when we were plan
ming for our birthday party we went
to the wholesale merchants and manu-
facturers and asked that they join
with us to give the people of Douglas
and the Bisbee district and all of CO.
chise county, bargain event which
would remain long in their minds.
These merchant friends Of ours have
responded most graciously and we have
for our friends, who have patronized
Phelps Dodge stores during the past
an array of bargain offerings which
we know will prove most welcome at
this time.
Every department in the stores at
Douglas, Bisbee, Warren, Lowell and
Naco will abount in Anniversary
Event specials Our buying staff has
spent weeks in providing special mer-
chandise to make of this event a real
bargain time long to be remembered
by the patrons who have favored US
with their trade during the past
months and years. The cream of the
markets of the east and on the Pacific

L. A. FIRM MAKERS OF
PERKY PEGGY DRESSES

Perky Peggy dresses are known
all over the United Statesj but more
particularly in the western country.
These dresses are manufactured by the
Goldson company of Los Angeles, who
have established a reputation for the
production of wash dresses. The Phelps
Dodge Mercantile company has been
constant patron of the Goldson COM
pany for many years and the women
of the communities in which the Phelps
Dodge operates know the value of
Goldson silk dresses and Goldson wash
dresses.

coast has been brought to our stores,
and at prices which will certainly
prove attractive. The whole event has
been planned to celebrate the 41st
birthday of Arizona's greatest mer-
camille organization.
We have instructed our advertising
department to detail in part some of
our plans and some of the items which
we are offering during this event
Then we have provided copy of Doug
las and Bisbee papers to go to every
home in the county, for We want every
citizen of this great county to know
that we are celebrating our birthday
and that we have some mighty attrac-
tive bargains for each and every one
in the county. The listings on the
following pages of this special Phelps
Dodge Mercantile company anniver-
sary edition are but few of the many
items which we are offering-just a
few items from each department A
visit to the various departments will
reveal many more bargains that are
just as interesting.
And we have arranged that each day
will bring to US still more specials, so
that if you cannot be here the first
day, it will be just as profitable for
you to come on some other day of the
Anniversary Event. We are going to
tell about these special offers each day
as the Event progresses, and it will
certainly pay you to watch our adver-
tisements during the next two weeks.
The quality of merchandise from
loc ,11x of I,o
best, and this event will prove no ex-
ception to that rule. We will have
nothing but the best, and our friends
in Cochise county know that. The
buyers for Phelps Dodge Mercantile
are welcome in every factory and mill
and in the show rooms of the largest
and the most exclusive, because of the
large volume of their purchases. So
the very best is what is shown to them
seconds and shoddies are not even
offered to them, and we are not both
cred with that class of goods. ~
Price is another advantage which
the Phelps Dodge Mercantile has over
many merchants. Our purchases for
the stores in the Phelps Dodge circuit
amount to so much more than the ord
mary merchant, and our buyers are
given the benefit of price. reductions
which come only to those who buy in
large quantities and pay cash. Then,
too, there is the matter of freight
carload shipments enjoy a much lower
freight rate than shipments by local
freight We will have nothing but the
best, but we are able to buy the best
at the same prices that other mer-
chants are forced to pay for goods of
lesser quality. We have merchandise
for every purses and the best that can
be bought at that price.
And now a word about service
there is no more important considera-
tion in Phelps Dodge Mercantile prac-
tice than the kind of service that is
given our customers. You will find
polite and attentive salespeople ready
to fill your wants. If there is any
question as to whether you want mer-
chandise, it is decided in your favor
before the transaction is started-if
YOU want it, it is yours, but no sales
person will force merchandise upon
you. Deliveries are prompt and every
preeaution is taken to make your shop

We shall await your coming with
pleasure, for we want you to share
this happy 41st Anniversary Event
with us.
