How this is to. lie done is' a challenge to government at all levels, processors. and handlers of food products, to con.- sumers generally and particularily' to • the farming community itself. Store Identification ' Would Help Merchants who are always striving to improve the service, rendered to cus- tomers and at the same time gain new business, should hearken to: the need for a small improvement to the -fronts _ oftheir places of business as suggested , by a visitor, here recently. It was noted by the . visiting -shopper , that very few stores here had the name of the store posted ' at , eye -level where it could be seen by 'a person walking along the street in front of it. This means that a shopper has to look up in an •akward fashion at the signs atop the first storey of the building in order - to identify a place of business. In many Iarger centres it is found ' • that the majority of the stores have a small sign in each display window, or a ss)\•..�. r sign painted on the glass, of the window or the front door naming the place. This makes it not only more convenient for the ' person who is not so familiar with the community, but is especially useful for strangers who may -be -bal- ling in the town. Shopping habits- and .shoppers change every day, and ,only by instituting small conveniences of this . nature can the ser- vice offered on the local scene be im- proved. Surely this is a worthwhile and inexpensive suggestion ' for all Iocal stores .who 'are lacking signs of this eye -level nature: • r Why not? Why not let each and every d shopper know whose store they are pas- sing. Advertise it as a convenience to r them — and a booster for yourself: r (St. Marys Journal -Argus) : - ' N s 7a h A w w •e p w m Mrs. C.
