i la ap attractive'"ad” published
elsewbtfte, Mr. F. E. Fudge prem
ises to save his "fellow citizens”
money if they will trade at his
well tilled stores.
The sales-people will besurpris
ed at the following facts; but they
will show some advantages of
"trading at home;” Last fall the
editress engaged from Mr. Hill
Fudge two pairs of school shoes
for Misses Virginia Brown and
Ona Zula Toole, at $5.00 per pair.
The number for Virginia was not
in stock. b e requested the sales
man tb order tlie pair; he did so,
but failed to get them, ami return
ed, the S 5.
Virginia bought from a firm in
Valdosta at $7 00. She thought
her's were some better than Ona
Zula’s. When the girls came home
Cbristmns, it was discoverd that
Virginia’s $7 shoes from valdosta
wereddenhcally, even to the stock
number, like Ona Zula’s $5 shoes
from Fudge’s.
Probably two hundred girls at
ibe 8. G. 8. N. C. buy shoes from
that»finn, and if $2 excess profits
are made on each pat:, that makes
the firm | profiteer tn the atp.ojipt
of $400.00.
Hundreds of pood citizens have
already found that merchants “al
home" are the ones who can, and
will, show their home folks real
favors.
Mr. F. E. Fudge owns bis stores,
hi. son* are devoting their lives to
his mercantile business; and it
goes without saying that they can,
and that they have, saved thous
ands of customers money.
