HOME OF QUALITY LUMBER
A HOME OWNED, STORE THAT IS
WORTHY OF THE PATRONAGE
OF HOME LOVERS
Sergeant & Clayton went into the grocery busi
ness in Roxboro over thirty years ago. Through
all these years, before the NRA was ever thought
of or ever came into the business life of this County,
this concern was ever anxious to do its part. If
there are any among us who fail to appreciate the
activities of this very live, yet old concern, they
must indeed be new comers, for no resident of five
years could be so blind.
Housekeepers like not only to have their own
homes look spick-and-span, but also like to buy their
eats from such a place.
Sergeant & Clayton knowing this to be true years
ago adopted the motto "The Sta-Klean Store." Visit
their store this week and see how well they live up
to this motto. A cleaner, prettier store is seldom
seen.
Yes, they are worthy of home lovers patronage.
