THE BUSINESS
OF KEEPING STORE
The basic principles of successful store-
kee^.ng are the same today as they were yes
terday . . . and will be tomorrow. They are
intelligently selecting and buying right mer
chandise at the right cost price and adding
the least mark-up to make the right selling
price.
The margin between the cost price and the
selling price is what permits the merchant
to pay for the services he renders as agent
between maker and user. The quality of
the merchandise, plus those services, is the
degree of value the merchant offers ... it is
the public’s yard-stick of the merchant’s
greatness and his right to continued patron
age. If he keeps his mark-up low, with a
high standard of service, he increases the
values he offers . . . and thus he insures his
future.
For years Chevrolet deal
ers have had the largest
number of trade-ins and,
therefore, the widest op
portunity to service and
condition all makes and
models. • • • Make sure
your car is serviced right
—make sure it is serviced
by your Chevrolet dealer!

winter and spring months. The
work is limited to men receiving
little or no government compensa

support.
Contributions received for the.
poppies on Poppy Day are a
principal source of support for
the vast welfare work carried out
by the Legion and Auxiliary a-
mong the disabled men and de-
ndent families. With the new

increased need for funds durinj

by the Legion and Auxiliary annu

With the nation again at war, the
poppy has new significance this
year and will be worn as a symbol
of patriotism by millions of Amer
icans throughout the country.
More than 13,000,000 of the
flowers have been made by dis
abled veterans for the Auxiliary,
the largest number since the ob
servance of Poppy Day was begun
twenty years ago. Orders for the
poppies from Auxiliary Units
every where have increased this
year in anticipation of greatly
increased demand for the flowers
of patriotic remembrance.
