Store has ever been Service and Dependability—the kind of service and dependability that win and hold confidence, not for a day or a month, but for a lifetime- A Store where the satisfaction of a customer is regarded of far greater importance than merely selling something. It is not without pride that we celebrate our fifty-ninth year of business, for one has only to compare the little shop, which still stands on the corner of Wyndham and Albert Streets, with the nine-floor structure in Queen Street to-day to realise that the ideals of progressiveness have been achieved. During the next week it is our sincere wish that the specially priced lines be accepted in the spirit in which they are offered—a practical expression of appreciation of the patronage accorded us during the past fifty-nine years. Every article or line represents seasonable and wanted merchandise, priced so that a considerable saving is apparent, and further, each fully conforms to the high quality standard that the establishment has maintained since its inception.
