The Lure of the Mail Order Catalog
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 who are in the habit of buying from Mail Order Houses would give the matter a little sober thought, they would probably be making their purchases through this channel.
There is no denying the fact that the big catalog houses known their stuff. They broadcast their wonderful works of art with keen foresight 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; that many people buy very same goods or articles could probably have been right here in town at even lower prices.
Stop and think a moment before you send that check or Money Ord r away next time. Who pays for that tremendous expensive catapult? Who pays for the money they pay for your salaries, 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 Lawrence business firms who really deserve your patr
You students know full well that these firms here 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 advice you can give them. You come again and buy more. Then too, they have a follow feeling and a friendly interest in you and your welfare. Can you imagine the interest the Million Dollar Storekeeper, hundreds of miles away, has in you? If that greenback you have tucked in their jeans 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 on your own hook. Take into consideration the time 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 inspect your purchase, and too, the trouble you might have in securing a fair adjustment in case the goods go wrong, or not be delivered to the catalog price, and it is just possible you will find that 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 then again they may be what are called "seconds". It is likely that most of you 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 three never was a factory that turned out all its product 100 per cent perfect. The imperfect product L a "second" and in order to prevent loss a market must be found for this grade of products. This way, the products are jobsbed to certain houses which make a specialty of disposing of them, some by the "auction" method, but mostly via the catalog.
Merchandise and service of the best is here in abundance and there isn't a business man in Lawrence today but who is ready to serve you to your satisfaction, 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 agree that this is true. And these are but a part of the number ready to serve you and treat you right.
So, you see, you are always taking chances, and may be buying "seconds" which you purchase goods at a discount.
