CROSIER MANCHESTER Ie Fu (al 14 Le 57 HM AND SAVE MONE g ~~ ih ; Make Your Dollar Buy More During PORT PERRY'S Cut Price Week AUGUST 7 to 14, INCLUSIVE: In connection with the opening of Port Perry's new cement roads, the local 'merchants are putting on Cut Price Week, com- mencing Thursday, August 7th and continuing until Thursday, August 14th, both days inclusive. As will be seen by the advertisement on the local page, the Council will take charge of the opening ceremonies; which- takes place Thursday, August 7th. 4 In the evening there will be a concert and possibly a com- munity dance, but of that there will be further and full informa- tion regarding this part of the program which will be under the direction of the War Memorial Committee. USE THE WINDOWS As we expect that the merchants are going to make a real bid for business during Cut Price Week, we expect that they will take advantage of their show windows to drive home the fact that real bargains are to be had during Cut Price Week in Port Perry. Here are some ideas from a trade paper along this line that should be worth considering. Has it ever occurred to you that men who buy from cata- logues make up their orders after supper, because they have not time to make their selections during the day? Why not make each change of window display as it were a page from your store catalogue, where you show the actual goods (not a picture of them) classified, priced and lighted up to the best advantage? It will not only make sales, but make waiting on customers easy, because the goods are "sold" before the purchaser enters the store and your clerk supplies their wants quickly and so is able to wait on more people in the same time--this is an economy. ing about pricing the goods shown recalls to my mind the time when I was first convinced that it was absolutely neces- sary to do this to make a show window's selling force complete. ' Rifles and shot guns were at that time retailed all over the States at a uniform price established by the manufacturers, but this was not generally known. : Talking to a local hunter as to the prospects of selling him a new rifle for fall I learned that he had just received one "and your people did not receive any fancy price from me either." Surprised, 1 enquired the make, model and cost, and taking a similar one _ from the show case showed him the tag--he was out the expres- sage, we were out the sale, but we both learned something. t day we put price tickets in our windows and I have never since f the lesson. I have no doubt that my friend n nqui the local price before sending out of town, but in goods shown in store windows this enquiry should not place in town. Just call 61. We 'do the rest.
