Intelligent Efficiency, Plus Good Business Judgment,
Is Rewarded in Augusta With Success in Big Measure
THE FASHION—LADIES’ WEARING APPAREL
“WHERE QUALITY TELLS”
1010-1012 BROAD STREET AUGUSTA, GA.
'"PH IS store is by far one of the most up-to
* date and best-equipped Ladies’ Ready
to-Wear stores in this entire section.
It is under the management of Abe E.
Weingarten, who has been identified with
the mercantile business practically all of his
life. Mr. Weingarten came to Augusta in
August, 1912, and accepted a position with
C. H. Snider & Brother, as clerk. It was not
long before Mr. Snider realized that Mr. Wein
garten possessed unusual ability as a sales
man, and was very efficient in handling big
mercantile propositions, and he was made
manager of the Ladies’ Ready-to-Wear de
partment, assuming entire charge of this part
of the business. He remained with this firm
for three years. Mr. Snider realized the need
of an exclusive Ladies’ Ready-to-Wear store
in Augusta and, as a result, he opened The
Fashion, which is Augusta’s only exclusive
Ladies’ Ready-to-Wear store, placing it un
der the management of Abe E. Weingarten.
No money was spared when he
opened The Fashion, located at
1010-1012 Broad Street, to make it
second to none in quality of mer
chandise carried, variety, service
and right prices, which policy he still
maintains.
The Fashion was opened in Oc
tober, 1016, with a complete array
of high-class Ladies’ Ready-to-Wear
and Millinery, and due to the fore
sight and good judgment of its man
ager, Mr. Weingarten, and his cour
teous and painstaking manner of
handling trade, plus his policy
of one price to everybody, this store,
although one of the youngest in Au
• usta, is recognized as one of the

fact that every minute of his time is consumed in the supervision of
sales and in caring for the wants of his large and rapidly-growing throng
of customers. Every transaction in this store comes under the direct per
sonal supervision of Mr. Weingarten.
The Fashion enjoys the patronage and confidence of not only tHe
ladies of Augusta, but throughout this entire section. From present in
dications it looks as if, through the efficient management of Mr. Wein
garten, The Fashion will double its 1918 sales during the present year.
The Fashion employs a force of nineteen highly-trained and effi
cient salesladies, who have a thorough and complete knowledge of the
Ready-to-Wear business.
Mr. Weingarten extends a cordial invitation to tHe ladies of Augusta
and vicinity, to come to The Fashion and inspect the beautiful line of
Ladies’ Ready-to-Wear and make a comparison of prices with that offer
ed by any other store, and, in short, to make The Fashion their head
quarters while shopping in Augusta.
The Fashion occupies a large floor space, tHe first floor b’eing de
voted to the Ladies’ Ready-to-Wear department, with tremendous re
serv' stocks on the second floor.
