THE TRUTH
As far as we know the truth.
If candor and straight-forwardness is going to deprive us
of an individual sale we may safely conclude that the sale better
be sacrificed than that the eharcter of our store bo placed in
jeopardy.
There is but one basis upon which the relations between
the merchant and customer may be safely placed and that is
upon the foundation of confidence.
One lie may not destroy that foundation but it develops a
fracture that require many more lies to conceal that the struc
ture is bound to disintegrate.
We must pay a certain market price for our goods and
we must sell same at a little more than what we pay for them
to be able to maintain our structure effiiciently and to pre
serve same in order to aid in the present and future develop
ment of our community.
