Results Gained by Investing
in Modern Laundry Stock
A modern laundry with a capital stock of $10,000, owned by home people, operated by home
people for home people. . ,
The directors will be people you know, wdio live here in Norman, who will have complete charge
of the management. They will employ a manager who is thoroughly familiar with the laundry
business and who will make it a success. .1111 • m
The stock ($10 00 a share) will be sold to home people, who, as stockholders, will receive 10 per
cent discount on their laundry work. It is estimated that the stock will pay not less than 20 per
cent dividend and there is a possibility that it will be even greater. This home institution will be for
home people and is worth your while to investigate even though you only take one share.
Save Labor for More Essential Things
Norman, Okla., August 2, 1919
TO THE CITIZENS OF NORMAN:
,We the undersigned business men
of the City of Norman, realizing that
competition is the only preventive to
exhorbitant prices, recommend that
support be given the Ideal Laundry <
Norman. We further recommend the
purchase of shares of stock in said
laundry, believing that your financial
support will prevent the exclusive
control of the laundry business of our
city falling into the hands of one man
with accompanying power to fix
prices at will.
The exclusive control of any one enterprise in
one community has always proved detrimental to
the welfare of all, except the man who profits by
that enterprise, irrespective whether it is the cot-
ton, electric light or laundry business. We under
stand that shares of stock are to b sold in th Ideal
Laundry at ten dollars a share, in our opinion,
after investigating the capital stock, assets, and in-
come of said laundry, we feel sure that a better
investment both for the welfare of the community
and the financial benefit of the individual purchaser
could not be made.
Signed:
A. McDANIFL,
H. P SEAWRIGIIT,
J. D. PIERSON.
By the use of modfcrn laundry service the busy housewife elimin-
ates the cost of soap, blueing, starch, water, fuel and her labor for laun-
dry work, all amounting to quite a sum and has her time for more nec-
essary things—things she would rather do—things it is hard to find
someone else to do satisfactorily. The difference between the cost of all
material for doing the laundry at home and the finished work from a
modern laundry is very small. So small in fact, the housewife can better
afford to save iter labor for more essential things.
Be Thrifty; Make Money on Your Savings
The proposition of giving 10 per cent discount on the laundry work
of stockholders, and the estimated 20 per cent dividend semi-annually
gives stock holders a permanent income which will materially decrease
the cost of the family wash. The 10 per cent discount on your laundry
work and the 20 per cent dividend (estimated) will in less than a year
pay back the money invested in stock. The money invested in stock is
that much money saved and the discounts and dividends continue, giving
you good return on your savings.
