Why It Pays the Customer
To Shop In the Morning
Most tcomen do their shopping in the
afternoon. But did they realize hotv
much better the stores could serve
them in the morning many ivould
change their habits. During the fore
noon ivhen business is comparatively
dull you can make your selections more
leisurely and be fitted without the
slightest haste or confusion.
And there's another advantage. Study
the chart. It shows the condition of
the average mind during ihe entire 24
hours. From 10.30 till noon the facul
ties swiftly become more awake and
alert. Tests by psychologists have dem
onstrated this. Therefore by shopping
in the morning you secure the services
of the salesperson at her highest peak
of ability. Her perceptions, her color
sense, her eye for line and contour are
at their keenest. And the same appties
to you.
We're glad to see you at any time—
morning or afternoon. But just try
shopping in the morning once. See if
you don't enjoy it.

MANAGER IN CITY
Here on Visit to Local Branch
in Interest of "Bigger
Sales"
1,. O. FAIRBANK
Mr. Fairbank, sales manager of the
Firestone Tire & Rubber Company of
Akron, Ohfo, is in Hnrrisburg to-day
visiting the local branch,of the organi
zation. He has a very optimistic view
of the future and when interviewed to
day stated that, while last year was a
record breaker for the Firestone com
pany, plans have been laid to take care
of 1919, which is anticipated will be the
biggest year in the company's history.
Mr. Fairbank says, "The passenger
and commercial vehicle manufacturers
look forward to this being a banner year
with them—which of course will mean
greater volume of business to both the
dealers and makers of quality tires."
Ho outlined various of the many ways
in which Firestone are helping and in
tend to further help their dealers. Many
of the country's largest and most ef
ficiently operated garages and tire
dealers have brought their problems and
troubles to Firestone and received h_lp
that enabled them to overcome their
difficulties and operate on a paying
basis. "The brains of our organization
are at our dealers call and we arq hap
piest when they are taken advantage
of."
Mr. Fairbank states that he finds
dealers and car owners everywhere sin
cerely enthusiastic over the quality
tires Firestone is now building and the
splendid service which they'are giving.
Ho regrets that his time in Harris
burg is so limited that he will not be
able to meet and become acquainted
with all those lie would like to, but
hopes that in the near future he may
have the pleasure of meeting each and
every Firestonefcustomer in the Harris
burg territory.
He says, however, that the wonderful
showing being made by the local Fire
stone branch has proven to the home
office that Branch Manager J. H. Dutch
and his loyal force at Harrisburg are
capable and anxious to help all dealers
along the road to success and prosper
ity.
