PAGE TWO >—SECTION ONE What’s In Store? By JOON AYNES The new store fronts on Mitch ener’s Pharmacy and Ralph Par rish's Store are a credit to the com munity. ill town benefits all. The new Edenton Furniture Company build ing and the new Sears Roebuck Catalog Sales Office have improved the looks of the business section of Broad Street, too, and make it a more desirable place to shop. First impressions do count. And with the .added attractiveness of these stores, the town looks like it’s up and coming and ready for busi ness. The windows of a shop are sup posed to entice people into the store to look at the merchandise within. A personal impression, when I first arrived in town, was that there was but one nice shop, The Betty Shoppe, because it was the only store that displayed its merchan dise in an attractive way. To see old faded posters, dead flies, dust so thick you could write in it, clothes thrown on hangers with the belts hanging below the belt line, colors that clash keeps people away in droves instead of luring them into the shops. Also, I’ve wondered why some of the stores feel it is necessary to put everything they have in the window. Attractive' displays of a few items, changed) frequently, would bring in morel people than the confusing displays ] of everything in the store for sale.! With everything looking better all the time, it might be worth taking a critical look at the windows to see what could be done to make them look better, too. Two more items for the “Shop In Edenton” campaign: Seeing an ad in a Norfolk paper, I sent for a small metal table. The price was quite good. Only trouble, when it arrived, the delivery charges ran it up to more than I would have paid for the same thing if T had ordered it from the local Sears store.. Live and learn. It’s some thing to consider, though . . . the shipping charges on an item and if you would do just as well or better to buy in town. Then It friend went to Norfolk to'buy her little girl a coat.

The second time she shopped at the Jill Shoppe and bought one of the car coats with detachable hoods for less than she had paid for the coat in Norfolk . . . and likes it better and thinks it is better made and better quality than the one that was lost. Os course, it makes it a rasher expensive little girl’s coat if you count the price of the coat that was lost, too. but the car coats are cute and attractively priced, if you should be in the market for a young lady’s coat. o Not too many items mentioned being wanted this week: 1. Crochet hooks and embroidery threads. 2. Paper guest towels. (Reminds me I saw some un usual Christmas paper napkins if. Bell’s Gift Shop). 3.
