THE NORMAN DEMOCRAT -TOPIC. NORMAN. OKLAHOMA. FRIDAY, JULY 25. 1913.
!!!£ Holland Store
is to be re-established upon the merit of Merchandise and Service. Ma-
trons and friends are urged lo compare merchandise and prices in arriv-
ing at tlie proper estimate of value. There is a vast difference between
cheap merchandise and merchandise cheap. A high price does not neces-
sarily imply good goods. Neither does a low price always mean inferior
merchandise. J-lence, the importance of looking for value. The best for
the price. Don't he misled bv the alluring pretense of "something for
nothing" in tlie form <>l "prizes, but give heed to intrinsic value in the
articles purchased ami be \e well assured that no merchant will deliber-
ately give you anything. I'ri/.t are invariably paid for very dearly by
the consumer.
Aside from the pernicious, immoral and gambling features conned
ed with all prize propositions, they art- cost I \ to the purchaser and pro! it-
able only to the merchant or promoter of the scheme.
Note the following net cash prices:
$4.00 Beacon Shoes, to close. $2.85
$4.00 White Nubuck button oxfords ....... $1.98
$4.00 Tan Pumps $1.98
$1.50 buys Ladies' Canvass button Oxford $1.50
$1.50 Childrens Oxfords and Slippers, to close ........ 75
$3.50 All Solid Leather Work Shoes $2.98
$2.50 Work Shoes $1.98
These are all standard, up to date styles. We make these startling prices to close out the
lines and make room for new fall goods. An opportunity of a life time, you can't afford to miss.
$5.00 Curlee Pants, all wool, full peg, side buckles and belt loops, to close $3.98
$2.50 all wool filled Mayfield Pants $1.75
50c Work Shirts ...... .39
25c buys a light blue work shirt, not very good 25
$1.00 36-inch Taffeta Silk, to close 75
20c Dress Voiles, now only 12 l-2c
It is our belief that the principle of "giving something for nothing"
(or pretending to do so) is not sound, and the only basis on which a mer-
chant should bid for trade is service and price.
These are sound principles and they involve every legitimate con-
sideration for patronage.
Accordingly your co-operation is solicited with full assurance of
much appreciation. We sure do appreciate the loyalty of m> many of our
patrons through the trying ordeal of financial embarrassment and we
are greatly pleased to inform you that very satisfactory arrangements
are completed whereby we are enabled to purchase first class merchan-
dise at as low a price as any merchant (big or little) in Oklahoma can
buy. This is a fundamental basis for success. We sincerely desire to
conduct the business so as to be worthy of your confidence and patron-
age. We want you to make this your trading place. Any suggestions
you will make for the improvement of business methods will lie cheerful-
ly considered. Especially do we ask for criticism. If you are pleased
with our merchandise and methods, tell your neighbor; il displeased tell
us and we will try to improve.
