Having written the int ri'duetion for tbi' advertisement, tlie writer nrrivesi ut the point when, lie is t tell iiliolit j the goods h,. is offering for Mile or that be lias just received in stock to ! lie offered later. j This part of the advertisement Is j every bit ns Important as those which we have already discussed in previous j articles. l'.nn the clenrness of do- ; script ion depends very largely the sue- ' cess of the advertisemeut in creating a (letsire. iood descriptive matter is, first of all, free from misleading or false 1 statements. Then, it is written in simple, easily understood language j that makes you almost fee the mer- J chandlse in your mind. Too frequently the advertiser knows the gumls so well that he fails to renl ize that the reader knows perhaps! nothing about them and he omits Im portant details from his description. The good ad-writer places himself In your position nnd asks himself questions that you might ask. Then he answers them truthfully nnd con cisely with the result that you can understand clearly the correct nature of the njerchnndis READ ABOUT IT Harry-Baber's Three-Way Grocery Store After many years of actual experience in the retail grocery business in Gastonia and after having made a thorough study of local conditions and the local trade requirements, we have evolved a system which we have decided to denominate the THREE-WAY SYSTEM, which We believe will meet with the approval of the public. It has numerous advantages which we propose to set forth in this advertisemnt in the hope that the peo ple of Gastonia and surrounding territory will read it carefully. It is our firm conviction that our plan will suit practically everybody. Some one of our three ways of doing busi ness will appeal to every patron of a grocery store. ; j For the past several years the buying public has been coming rapidly to a realization that groceries can be sold cheaper for cash than on credit; also that they .can be sold still more cheaply if the buyer carries his purchases home with him and thus saves the gro cer the trouble and expense of delivering. And so the Cash and Carry system of selling groceries has rapidly come into favor all over the country. Food constitutes by far the largest single item of expense in the average American home and it is easy fqr any of us to understand how the saving of a small percentage of this regular outlay, month by month, can be turned into a saving worth while in the course of a year. The Three Ways Our three ways are as follows: FIRST: CASH AND CARRY - the cheapest. SECOND: CASH AND DELIVER - not quite so cheap. THIRD: CHARGE AND DELIVER: a little more expensive still. How They Worl Cash and Carry - You come in and select the articles you want to purchase. everything being marked in plain figures, pay for them over the counter and carry them home with you. In doing this at Harry-Baber's you are going to get absolutely thq very lowest prices that prevail in Gastonia. You pay nothing for bookkeeping, collecting, de livering or bad accounts. You are simply paying for what you are getting and you are getting it at absolutely rock-bottom prices. Second: Cash and Deliver: Under this system you come in, select what you want and get it at identically the same price as in the first way, except for the fact that the small amount of 5 per cent is added to cover the actual cost of delivering your groceries. Third: Charge and Deliver: Under this system you purchase your goods at identi cally the same price as in the first case with the exception that you pay the five per cent additional for delivery and another three per cent to cover the actual cost of bookkeep ing and collecting, making a total of 8 per cent for charging and delivering your grocer ies. In order to understand that the whole object of our new system of doing business is to sell you groceries cheaper, bear in mind this fact that even under our Charge and Deliv er system you are going to save at least two per cent because heretofore the general sys tem in charge and deliver establishments selling groceries has been to add into the orig inal price of the goods ten per cent to cover bookkeeping, collecting, delivering and bad accounts. Tf u ,:ii .u4. " j v vs. uiv mil vi i 11 y ,t um iin ui, inu ma ji immui win oiiuw wntil yum njv;ui,y j purcnases amounted to at tne Lash and Carry price with 3 per cent added for bookkeep ing and collecting and five per cent for delivering. In short, your bill will show you eX-' actly to a cent what you could have saved in any particular month by using our Cash and Carry plan, which is, of course, the plan we recommend as being the best for everybody. When goods are ordered over the phone to be sent C. O. D. and party ordering is not at home or for any reason does not pay for the goods, a charge of three per cent will be made for charging and collecting. Our Store Re-arranged In order to take care of the Cash and Carry trade it is our purpose to entirely re-arrange the front part of our store room. To do this will necessitate our closing our store for 3 days. So on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, March 29, SO and 31, the front of our store will be closed but phone orders will be taken and handled just as usual. Fri day morning, April 1st, we will re open for business and we hereby extend a cordial in vitation to everybody to visit our store and investigate our stock and our systems of do ing business.
