T 1 IS with a feeling of deepest sincerity thif we send you dur
cordial Christmas Greetings.
It is a good custom ... a wholesome custom ... a custom which
we in America-shall forever protect.
And while this Christmas may not be as "Merry" as those in years
past, we may still clasp the hands of our friends with a true feel-
ing of brotherly love —and an abiding faith that when the
• "rmnutt and rhr shouting dies ’ . . . and Victory has erbwned oor

in yesteryears. ,
Through floods, drouths, boom-times and depressions, war, peace

been able to supply through home-owned independent retail
, dealers the health-giving fresh fruits and fresh vegetables that
you have been accustomed to enjoy at Christmas-time and every
-day throughout the year. - ■ . .
And come what may, we renew our pledge to continue this service
to our friends in die Southwest for your good health and'enjoy-
