^ -^inner-’of First Prize
Because there has never been a time
when the American ^housewife was
mt)re ‘‘thrift-conseious”—and because
the average housewife must save her
pocketbook — retail "grocers generally
are offering her quality vfoods at rea
sonable prices.
But if, in addition, her grocer offers
a courteous and dependable service, if
he can make helpful suggestions, an
ticipating her needs, this for ,the
housekeeper is additional thrift, be
cause it represents a saving not only
of money, but of time and worry and
lengthy planning. -

BLALOCK’S

Keep health in your home and econ
omy in your budget, by trading in
Clinton with the well-known firm,
Blalock’s' Grocery and Market. The
i World war proved the necq^sity of
protection. The depression taught the
value of strict economy. Health laws
demand a variety of fresh, untainted
foods. Blalock’s meets all these re
quirements 100 per cent. This and
other good reasons, is why the people
of Clinton and nearby towns are sat
isfied patrons of this Yirm.
