WE TELL OUR CUSTOMERS
THE TRUTH,
As far as we know the truth.
If caiulor ancl straight-forwardness is going to deprive us
of an individual sale we may safely conclude that the sale better
he sacrificed than that the charcter of our store he placed in
jeopardy.
There is hut one basis upon which the relations between |
the merchant and customer may he safely placed and that is !
upon the foundation of confidence.
One lie may not destroy that foundation hut it develops a *
fracture that require many more lies to conceal that the struc
ture is hound 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 he able to maintain our structure effliciently and to pre
serve same in order to aid in the present and future develop
ment of our community.
