B. Smith'. Every day over 1.029,000 Indiana women make it a point to shop where they get trading stamps. This large group of smart, thrifty Indiana shoppers, with their common interest in trading stamps, can be thought of as a huge club" with membership in the state. Of course this "club woman" gets wonderful things for her home and family through such favorites as Green Stamps.

Through her thrift and diligence she provides for her family. And although she may seldom think about it, her active saving is enormously good for business in our state. Last year, for example, trading stamp companies purchased $25,538,000 worth of products from Indiana manufacturers. Making these things provided jobs for 2,392 Indiana people. Redemption Stores, paying local rent and taxes, employ many more.

In the light of these facts it would seem that not only Indiana women, but everybody in the state can be thankful that the trading stamp is a part of our way of life. This message is published as public information by THE SPERRY AND HUTCHINSON COMPANY, originator 63 years ago of Green Stamps.
