Swafford's
Sayin's
Can you tell me where the
time goes? I am beginning to
realize that "time flies," for
another year has gone by here
at the 'Ole Country Store. I
hope that during the ten years
here that I have been a help
to you in some way.
I invested in my own Com
munity because I knew there
was not a better place? or bet
ter people as customers, friends
and neighbors. I have said ? and
I say now ? that no groceryman
anywhere has a better group of
customers than I have. Of
course I realize there are some
who feel that a country store is
not good enough for them,
but I try (as near as possible)
to have what my customers
want. There are two things,
Ithough, I do not furnish:
wrecker service for "stuck-ups"
or a remedy for "swell heads."
If you think you are above folk
like my customers, just look up,
you have a surprise in store for
you, because, as a whole, there
is not a better group of people
anywhere.
You people, here and in ad
joining communities, have made
it possible for me to stay here
In the 'Ole Country Store for
ten years. I appreciate your con
fidence and your loyalty as cus
tomers. If I stay here another
ten years (I hope you will let
mei I promise you my best, in
every way possible.
I wonder how many of you
would send me an anniversary
card, or letter? I'd love to get
one from you.
P. S. Watch for an important
change in this ad.
