VOLUME XVIII WAYCROSS, GA., FRIDAY, OCTOBER 6. 19JI NUMBER 289 THIS MAY CONCERN YOU! OAE YEAR AGO TODAY Just one year ago today tho doorj of our store was thrown open to the trading public. Since openingg day our store has been crowded. We have enjoyed a good trade, and for which we are indeed grateful to the good, people of Waycross and Ware county and surrounding territory. We iriust say we never dealt with better people. And just at the time are about to start upon a new year we desire to again call your attention to the fact, it is our earnest and constant endeavor to please every patron of this store perfectly—to carry out, in fact, our repeated guarantee of satisfaction or your money back. So we want to say right now that if any one has purchased here any article that has not proven to be worth all we charged them for it, we want the opportunity to make It right. No dealers any where examine their goods with greater care, and none are more particular about the kind of goods they sell, but we are only human, hence we sometimes make mistakes of judgment, and if have sold anything during the past year that has proven unsatisfactory in any way we want to know about it. Drop in at your Earliest conven ience, tell us about it, and we will see to it that you are reimbursed for any shortcomings in the goods we have sold you. We realize fully that only by serving you well can we hope to serve you often and to that end we will labor with might and main. You can come to our store expecting much—for much is waiting here for you—much in quality, much in service, much in everything that goes to mak^ satisfac tion certain for our customers."' We appreciate your patronage. Come again. Yours to serve, , / Churchwel! Brothers. WILL STAND FOIL RE-ELECTION • tent officer, and will be*strongly sup* J yorted for peJelecHlon.
