Is it not true that when you go to a store to make a purchase and you are told that the article you want is reduced in price, you immediately begin to examine it and wonder if it is not inferior, defective or out of style? If you are a judge, you will finally come to that conclusion which in nearly every case is true. No merchant can afford to, nor will he, sell his goods without profit. He has either been dishonest by asking too great a profit in the first place, or he has marked his goods up, then down again, or there is some defect in the goods offered.

It is easy enough to buy we will say suits for $8.00, mark them to sell for $12.00 and later mark them down to $10.00. It looks attractive, but it is unfair to the customer who bought early and paid the long price. With our system of strictly cash transactions and no reduction sales, we mark the suit for $10.00 and the price stays there. The man who buys the first suit of us early in the season, pays no more than the man who buys the last one later on. Can we not afford to do this and thus treat all our curtomers alike? PRODUCE We pay the top of the market all the time for potatoes, onions, beans and other produce.

You can better appreciate the close prices we make when you compare them with prices asked in other towns. We consider the fact that we sell more goods at retail than any other store between Nashville and Knoxville as a proof that our prices and service are right.
