All Ready for Holiday
Business in Our Own Store
On Wednesday we moved back into our old store and are now ready to receive you. Ever -
department is fairly bristling with new merchandise. Carte after case of new goods has been open:
up and we have worked day and night getting the bright fresh stocks all marked up and ready f..,
holiday buyer..
We have searched the markets over for a stock worthy of this big bright store and have
gathered together one that must win the approval of every shopper that visits it. Holiday stocks
must have the first place for the next few days and we are taking practically the entire ground floor
for their display. We have a whole month's holiday business to crowd into eleven days and are go-
ing to make it just as easy as we can for you to look or buy. More than ever before this will be the
Christmas store. The stocks of the useful, the practical and the "beautiful, suitable for holiday
giving, that it contains today will make it so. Come to it whenever and as often asyou wish. Make
yourself at home. Von will find something of interest in ;every visit and there is plenty of room
here to shop in comfort.
When we opened the doors on Thursday morning we welcomed you to one of the most
convenient and best appointed dry goods stores in Western Ontario. We want von to feel that it is
i, your store as well as ours --to feel that you are at liberty to come and go as you please --in fact
to feel perfectly at home whenever you come. It is our desire to give you the best possible service
in every way, both in the variety and quality of the stocks carried in the different departments and
in the service the store itself will give. To sum it up, we intend to make this an ideal shopping
place. One that is worthy of the town of Goderich and that will be a credit is it.
