NATIONAL GUARDSMEN
Warner Wasn't in Business When
Sherman Defined War!
OR many months Warner has been making camp life easy for the regulars in Mexico
and along the border with his UNPARALLELED SHOPPING SERVICE. You boys
who are coming here from the big cities of the East are not going to" be as far away
from the cuy comforts as you probably have imagined. Warner is going to con
tribute his part toward your comfort.
The Warner Drug Company operates án uDHo-the-minute city drug store carrying
very article to be found in the modern drug store anywhere. That is one of the reasons
why Warner's is the mQst popular drug stO(f with El Pasoans'and the soldiers; AN-
OTHER IS WARNER'S REM ARK ArLE FACILITIES FOR QUICK DE-
LIVERIES REGARDLESS OF WHERE GOODS ARE TO BE SENT.
WARNERS FAST MAIL ORDER SERVICE HAS RECENTLY BEEN
EXTENDED TO THE UNITED STATES TROOPS ALONG THE BOR
DER AND IN MEXICO. THIS SERVICE IS FAMILIARLY TERMED BY
THE SOLDIERS THE "WARNER SHOPPING SERVICE" FOR NOT
ONLY DOES THIS STORE FILL ORDERS OUT OF ITS OWN STORE
BUT PROVIDES EXPERT SHOPPERS TO FILL ORDERS OF ANY
KIND. REGARDLESS OF THE CLASS OF GOODS REQUIRED ANY
ORDER FROM ANY SOLDIER AN YWHERE TO WARNER WILL BE
FILLED PROMPTLY AND SENT TO THE CAMP. NO CHARGE IS
MADE FOR THIS EXPERT SHOPPING SERVICE.
THIS SAME SPLENDID SHOPPING SERVICE IS OFFERED TO
THE MEN OF THE NATIONAL GUARD WHO ARE TO BE MOBIL-
IZED ON THE BORDER AN ENCAMPED NEAR FORT BLISS. If you
are to be stationed at the El Paso camp you may telephone your wants to Warner and
ihey will be promptly taken care of and sent to you via our rapid motorcycle delivery. If
you require some article and do not know where to get it it will be necessary only to
phone the Warner store and our shopper will get it for you and deliver it free of any cost
aside from the regular retail price of the article itself. AND YOU WILL GET IT
RIGHT NOW1
If you are to be stationed at points along the border you will find the Warner
service just as convenient as though you were a resident of El Paso. In fact so efficient
is this "soldier service" that it is almost the equivalent of bringing a modern city drug store
to your very tent door. Wherever you go Mr. National Guardsman the Wamer Service
will follow you. Take advantage of it and your stay on the border will not be an un-
pleasant one.
Here are a few suggestions of things you will be most likely to need. They are
carried in large stocks properly priced at Warner's:
Desert Water Bags both plain and Sanitary all sizes and prices.
Icy Hot Water Bottles all kinds sizes and prices.
Safety and Plain Razors of all makes.
Goggles and Sun Glasses Of these we have the very latest in combinations with
celluloid glasses.
Metal Soap Boxes.
Everything that is needed for the field.
Warner's is the "Soldier's Store;" we take particular pride in supplying the wants
of the boys in khaki. Every day we receive scores of letters from men in Mexico and
along the border complimenting this store on the efficient manner in which we have taken
care of their requirements.
