Continuous Improvement

Continuous Improvement
Periodically since the firm was
established. improvements have
been made in the building and
new lines added to keep up with
the requirements of the Tacoma
retail trade area. Recently. with
out any commotion a program OF
improvement was undertaken
which included doing over the en-
tire exterior and providing more
convenient facilities for the dis
play of goods and serving Gus
toners. Each floor has dec
orative scheme that harmonizes
with the character of the goods.
The. arrangement of each floor has
ben planned with the idea OF the
customers convenience. Just now
improvements are underway on
the basement floor which houses
the electric and other household
appliances. dishes. glassware and
lunch room.
The climax of the improvement
program. according to Manager {.
NJ. Gillespie. will be reached this
summer when the exterior Of the
building will be modernized and
the entire first floor done over.
This will include new decorations
and fixtures specially designed. As
far as the building Is concerned
1t will be a new Peoples Store.
The first home of the Peoples
Store in Tacoma. the John s. Baker
building at Pacific and Thirteenth.
is soon to be replaced by a new
federal building. The federal pro-
ject will start about the time the
Peoples Store improvement pro-
ject gets underway.

firm moved to new home at the
corner Of Pacific ave. and So.
Nineteenth. Announcement of the
retail opening was made through
the newspapers an several thous-
and page-size circulars were dis
tributed throughout Pierce county
by men on horseback. The field
must have been well covered. for
on the day the retail department
opened the place was crowded from
morning until night Twice during
the afternoon the shelves were en-
tirely cleared of some lines and II
was necessary to replenish them
from the wholesale department.
About this time shadows of the
financial debacle in the cast
reached the Northwest. Several
retail stores had folded up. Rather
than take chances on a situation
that was becoming more uncertain
every day. the firm decided to go
out Of the wholesale business and
the entire stock was turned over
to the retail department. That
proved to be a sensible move and
the firm came through the depres-
sion in sound financial condition.
Move to Present Home
Next. desiring to get nearer the
retail center, the firm bought
site at Pacific and Eleventh and
let the contract for the present
building. So anxious was the firm
to get into the new location that
the contractor. w. r. Nichols. was
offered a bonus of $40 for every
day he cut down the estimated
construction period. There aso
was a penalty of $40 for every day
over that time. Nichols put cleo
trio arc lights all around the build
ing and made a nice bonus by
working two shifts.
