To Ovr CUSTOMERS AND FRIENDS : ‘
Read this letter to the very end. .
You work day in and day out to make money ; then why not let us help you save it? for a dollar saved is a
~ dollar fuade, and the work is a great deal easier and far more pleasant. This is especially true when you have someone
able, willing and anxious to help you. It is this: You and your family cannot get along without the necessities of
life, You cannot make them all, then it is forced on you to buy some of them.
During the time we have been in business in Marietta we have earnestly and honestly endeavored to so select
our stock of goods and sell them so that we would by our methods of straightforward dealing, truthfulness and hon
esty win the confidence of the people. =We sincerely trust that we have been successful. We have also tried to “hold
our customers’’ ; that is, we have not tried to g2t rich on one transaction with you, but to sell you a superior class of
goods and at such prices that you feel that you have gotten a ‘‘square deal”’—your money’s worth—and by so doing re
tain you as one of our customers. Our aim 15 to sell you what you want, what you need, and at a close margin. If we
have been fortunate enough to have you as a customer, we feel that our methods of dealing with you have been pleas.
ant and satisfactory, and that you will eontinue to favor us with your patronage. assuricg you that with age and expe
rience we have gained valuable information of which you get the benefit. If you have never traded with us we feel that
you have been hasty or injudicious, for, as you well know, it is always best to thoroughly investigate hefore making a
trade.
It is a pleasure for us to show you, so do not hesitate to come in and ask to be shown the goods you want. Our
buyers have spent their entire life in the mereantile business and enjoy better advantages, and, as a matter of course,
are better suited to the work—the all important work of getting just the thing you want. Don’t get the idea that you
are forced to buy just because you come in and inspeet the goods : it’s a mistake. It’s true we like to sell you, and we
feel that we can, for we are sclling at just as close a margin as legitimate business methods will permit. We extend to
you a personal invitation to come in and let some one of the following clever, courteous, accommodating and experi
enced clerks show you what a large and well selected and choice stock of goods we have: Mrs. Hattie Nash, Miss Alma
Mayfield, Miss Jrene Rutherford, Mr. Frank Northcutt, Mise Nina Moon, Miss Leila Moon and Miss Baugh, of the
millinery department, ’
We keep ‘‘open house’’ every day, except Sunday. during business hours, two doors from the Post Office, on
the south side of Park Square, and you are always welcome, [lf you have been one of our customers in the past, we
wish to thank you for your patronage, and if you have not been a customer of ours, then we want to assure you that
we will appreciate your trade. Promising you a ‘‘square deal,”’ and wishing you unbounded success, we are
Yours very truly,
-J. R. KING DRY GOODS CO.
P. B.—Owing to the death of Mr. John J, Cogging, who was president of our company, the administrator of
