SHOP EARLY
For better selections and to re-
lieve the crowded situation in the
stores during the late afternoon.
Because there are so many people whose working hours makr it impossible for them to
shop early in the day, and who are forced to do their grocery shopping after 5 o'clock in
the afternoon, we urge housewives who have time to shop earlier in the day Otherwise,
with the shortage of labor, a crowded condition exists that makes it hard on both the sho|
p**™ and the clerks-
Then the selection of foods, especially fresh vegetables, is usually better earliei in (be day
WE WILL APPRECIATE YOUR COOPERATION AND HELP IN
HELPING TO SOLVE THIS CONDITION.
