"Preparedness" Preparedness is the word of the hour. The Nations have learned their lesson and learned it thoroughly, and at great cost. No Nation will be llowed in future to take any other Nation by surprise. The same word "Preparedness" might also be applied to domestic life at this particular time. The signs of the times would indicate that in the not far distant future, in fact it is already noticeable, that prices of food stuffs-- more particularly groceries of all kinds--will go up in price. Our Advice Is : To "lay in" a liberal supply of groceries while The Model Grocery is selling them at such low prices, as there is no assurance how long we will be able to continue these prices. Our Aim Is: At all times to provide the best quality of groceries at the lowest possible prices. Remember we always have something extra on Fridays and Saturdays of each week. W.
