The Sign of the Times TMAGINE if you can a huge grocery emporium occupying the whole of a large city block. That will give you some idea of the size, importance, and buying power of G.U.S. Stores. To bring into being such a huge undertaking would, of course, be a great achievement, but is it not a still greater achievement to offer all the advantages that such a store would render, plus the added service of greater convenience. G.U.S. Stores really constitute one huge organisation, divided up into small sections, with one in every district. Look for the G.U.S. Sign, the sign of the times,” in your locality. Here is another reason that will lead you to the nearest G.U.S. Store. On top of the advantages enumerated above, you have the all-important fact that each G.U.S. Store offers a friendly, intelligent, personal service from a responsible proprietor, who is a local resident with all your local interests at heart. \ Every G.U.S. Store offers a complete grocery service, and can be depended upon, day in, day out, right through the year, to supply your household needs with a view to giving you the utmost satisfaction. The following is the Canterbury list of G.U.S. Stores. Note your nearest, and if you are not already a G.U.S. customer, decide to move with the times and become one. CHRISTCHURCH.
