One day last week a man, a good customer too, and should have known, was surprised to know that we carried Scovill Hoes, Binder Twine, Screen Doors. "I had no idea you carried them. I will come to see you when I get ready for them." That ' s what we want to ROOT IN YOUR MIND, that it may be this store is carrying lines that YOU DONT KNOW ABOUT and are SOLD MUCH CHEAPER than you cam buy elsewhere. When this is the case we both lose. IF IT'S IN TOWN WE'VE GOT IT. IF YOU GET IT HERE IT’S RIGHT. THE BIG STORE SELLS EVERY THING CHEAPER. Etheridge, Smith & Cos., JACKSON, GEORGIA. Progress vs Tradition “We shall draw from the open air an invincible force that will run our ma chinery, pull our trains, light our cities” said Progress. “Dreams, dreams; it can’t be done’’ answered Tradition. “We shall build ‘horseless carriages,’ and we will photograph motion and re produce it in moving pictures,” declared Progress. “Utterly impossible; it can’t be done,” replied Tradition. “We shall send telegrams through space along electrical waves, and we shall build a boat that will go under the sea,” said Progress. “Ridiculous, it can’t be done,” scoffed Tradition.” “We shall have flying machines that will travel throughout the air and we shall discover the North and South Poles,” predicted Progress. “Preposterous, it cant be done,” protected Tradition. “We shall ouild, equip and operate an up-to-date Department store second to none, carrying all lines of goods that will meet every demand of the public,” in sisted Progress. “Out of the question, it wont pay,” sneered Tradition. “We shall increase sales and raise the standard of Merchandising, make volume and small profits displace old methods and long profits. Do business along lines of least resistance, ” urged Progress. ” ‘ ‘Foolishness, watch what I tell you it’s wrong. ’ ’ cried Tradition THE FACT REMAINS That 1200 good accounts are on our books besides the cash trade, all of which we truly appreciate and esteem VERY HIGHLY. We are adding new ones daily. We are steering straight ahead to the stakes we set when we entered upon this line which we now love and expedt to always follow.
