There is an attainment. And
after that only duplication.
Wilmington has attained a
completely rounded out civic
service. Only in the numbers
of individual types of public
service is it exceeded-not
in the different types them
selves.
1t affords its citizens and the
people of its natural trading
territory a comprehensive
group of stores and shops
that meet every require
ment.
Its restaurants, hotels and
amusements are comparable
with the best of the country.
Its public vehicles-its rail-
roads-its steamboats-its
buses-its street cars (which
incidently are the last word
in this 6eld) its taxicabs are
unsurpassed in the desirable
qualities of comfort, safety,
and rapid transportation.
To the people of Delaware,
the nearby counties of Mary
land, Pennsylvania, and New
Jersey, we say to you, Shop
at homeI" But if you can't
find there what you want at
the price to suit your purse,
come to Wilmington. You
can readily make the trip in
a day without fatigue or dis
comfort. You will not find
annoying traffic congestion
or surging crowds-but open
roads. parking space and
enough elbow room. There
will be no difference, but a.
hospitable welcome awaiting
you. -
To the people of Whining
ton, we ask for fair chance
to show you that there is a
decided convenience and adj
vantage to buying in your
own city.
Wilmington is ready for its
busiest Christmas season.
