4 WIL~ETTE LIFE. Au~ust 23, 1929 John R. Kenneys Return From Three Weeks' Trip Mr. and Mrs. John R. Kenney of SUGGEST S"ERIDAN ROAD BE MADE STATE HIGHWAY (Continued from Page 1) 1709 \Vashington avenue and their t\\"0 MORE ON PEDDLERS . WE seem to have caused A stir by our article last WEEK on the Peddler's OVERHEAD and one of OUR customers asked why MANUFACTURERS CHOOSE _ that method of DISTRIBUTION if the . OVERHEAD is so much GREATER than that of THE retail merchant. WE put it this w.1y: THE manuf acturcr sends OUT his high -powered AGENT who cnries his SAMPLES into rhe home WHERE it is difficult to COMPARE them as to QUALITY and pr·ice with · COMPETITIVE merchan DISE. By avoiding comPARISON and forcing sales HE is often able to sell an INFERIOR article at a high PRICE and secure DISTRIBUTION which WOULD · be impossible FOR him in a more COMPETITIVE market. WE thought that Holly WOULD be around last WEEK to give our new FOUNTAIN the once over AND a column news item ON it. But then we LEARNED that he was THE proud father of a NEW daughter, so that WAS some excuse for not SHOWING up. WE have a new fountain ALRIGHT and can say IT is the most modern ONE we could buy. GRACE knows how to DRAW you the best soda THAT you ever tasted. IT will be ice cold. deli CIOUSLY flavored .with THE best flavors money CAN buy. As for cleanliness WE have always prided OURSELVES on keeping A clean fountain. If you HAVE any doubt about it ASK our efficient Health COMMISSIONER Dr. ·- HAWKINS. He can tell you ALL about the fountain in OUR village. Light Lunches- we are serving Sandwiches now, but by next week we hope to have our lunch counter running in full and will tell you more about it. \ras a l ~o sugges ted.
