BACK THE MEN BEHIND THE GUNS1
TODAY, in the J. C. Penney stores in all 48 states,
an army of over 50,000 is waiting to greet you.
1 In this army are veterans versed in the Penney
technique of service. And its ranks are filled with
eager recruits ... the able replacements for the 4,512
stars in the Penney service flag.
Fred Parsons in the shoe department is filling in
for a hero in Tunisia. Lucy Hunt, selling yard goods,
substitutes for a Navy Wave.
!
These new people—like the veterans—do a marvel
ous job! In a sense, they are soldiers—soldiers all!
For, you. can’t do your best at a war job without
the proper clothing. And Penney’s and its people are
making every effort to provide you with the new
clothes you need. Clothing that’s sturdy—smart
thrifty—clothing for all the family.
There are over 1600 Penney stores but each is a
local institution. Each employs local people, pays
local taxes, caters to local tastes.
The people who work at Penney’s are folks you
have grown up with; their daughters and sons!
That is why you’ll feel at home at Penney’s!
