. . and the management and
every clerk take a personal
pride in seeing how well we
can meet these requirements.
Good light today is to inexpensive that no one can
afford the cost of poor light. Protect priceless eye-
sight. Enjoy better light tonight.
Vulcanizing
You can’t buy new tires or have old ones re-capped
or re-treaded, but you can still have those breaks
and holes vulcanized.
Sight is the most precious of the five senses. Eighty-
seven per cent of all that children learn is through
their eyes and their ability to fill useful jobs and
enjoy the blessings of life depends so much on good
eyesight.
You want your child to have every advantage, so see
that he has plenty of good light for home study.
Time and again it has been proved that good light
helps children learn more rapidly ... results in bet-
ter grades.
