THE LEADER
GROCERY
We are still headquarters for the best groceries. This
year has broken our past record for business. We feel that this
is good evidence of proper treatment and right prices. We ap-
preciate this, but as fall is here and money coming in we so-
licit your cash business.
Don't forget that we give tickets of 2 1-2 per ccnt for
cash. Give us your cash business, and next spring when credit
time comes again we will be prepared to take care ol ron.
Yours, for a good fall business.
