Dollar Day SPECIALS
CASH ONLY
by Mrs. J. R. Hutchison.
The society was delighted to The Deport Times office.
The fellow who buys haphazard—or the one who puts his every-day pur-
chasing on a business basis?
The well-informed shopper always has the advantage when it comes to
the stretching of dollars. And you can not be up-to-date on the shop-
ping news until you make a practice of reading the advertisements.
.) • ■ ......■**“ : _• - - - J.'.
The advertisements show you how to save money—and steps—and time.
Watch them carefully.
He is the one who realizes the great value of advertising when it comes
to the important business of spending his hard-earned money.

Advertising in a small tele-
i}t phone directory that is never
used is of doubtful value, and
particularly in this instance, 11
when there are so few tele-
phone* on the Deport exchange. ]
Local merchants can do as they I
please about the matter of*
Kf placing advertising therein, but
The Times is giving you the
theta.
We have no complaint to
ike of local people connected
th the telephone company,
are our friends and nei-
bors, and render the very
it service possible with the
•r equipment wi:h which
By have to work. These
MMents are made against a
MRflfty that takes out every-
they can get from our
■mmity, and puts back just
r little as they think the peo-
g'wfll tolerate, and their
■flBB for the service render-
i *s exceedingly high.
