EDITORIAL
The Lure of the Mail Order Catalog
--is very important in the furniture business,
probably more essential than in any other
business. We not only sell you furniture
that is very durable, well and arel,
here to give it prominently.
It is regrettable, but nevertheless a fact, that there is quite a bit of temptation concealed in the pages of the Mail Order Catalog, but if those are in the habit of buying from Mail Order Houses would give the matter a little soler thought, they would have to make sure before making their purchases through this channel.
There is no denying the fact that the big catalog houses your stuff. They broadcast their wonderful works of art with keen foretight and precision. Knowing just how to work upon the minds of the purchasing public they show up their wares so beautifully and make their prices look so attractive, that many a dollar is sent away to them and thus lost to the local merchant and the community, even though in every same goods or articles could probably have been bought right here in town at lower prices.
Stop and think a moment before you send that check or Money Order away next time. Who pays for the tremendously expensive catalog? Who pays for the salaries, salary, postage, insurance and upkeep? You pay it, you out-of-town buyers and in so doing you help to support the Big Store conducted by strangers in some other city, to the loss and detriment of your business firms who really deserve your patronage.
You students know full well that these firms can be depended upon to treat you fairly. They are not going to hold you up. The fair and equitable prices they ask you today is the very best advertiser in the world, because they come again and buy more. Then too, they have a fellow feeling and a friendly interest in you and your welfare. Can you imagine the interest the Million Dollar Storeker, hundreds of miles away, has in you? If that greenback you have tucked away can you Sans could talk, it would say: "I am the reason."
Now let's size up and carefully compare these two methods of purchase and see how they look from a fair, square, view-point. Do a little figuring out what is being purchased and it takes you to get your mail order purchase, the possibility of its being lost in transit; the fact that you are buying without having a chance to inquire about the cost of the goods; have in securing a fair judgment in the case the goods proved unsatisfactory. Then add the cost of transportation to the catalog price, and it is just possible you have not gained anything at all in the transaction.
And, last but not least, what about the real grade of the goods you buy via the catalog? They may be all right, and they again may be what we expect. But if they are "seconds" then know what "seconds" are, but a word regarding same might not be out of place. Practically everything we use except that produced by Nature, is manufactured, and there never was a factory that turned what would normally be called a perfect product is a "second" and in order to prevent loss a market must be found for this grade of goods. It is a well known fact that these "seconds" are jobshed to certain houses which make it possible for the "Auction" method, but mostly via the catalog.
So, you see, we are always taking chances, and we are always seconded* when you purchase goods without having a chance of getting the right price. Merchandise and service of the best is here in abundance and there isn't a business man in Law-aware who doesn't have to satisfy both as to quality and price. We want you to carefully check over the list of firms responsible for this page, and we are sure that you will find someone who is ready to fulfill the number ready to serve you and treat you right.
