4 & To Honor
Founder Here
George Huntington Hartford, in*
ventor of the modern chain store
system, is being honored here this
week, February 10 to 15, by the
•Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Com
pany.
Local observance of Founder’s
Week, announced by R. R. Betz, vice
president in charge of A & I’ oper
ations in this area, will pay tribute
to the man who, in 1859, opened the
first red-fronted store in what is
now the. world’s leading food dis
tributing system.
“Mr. Hartford established the
principle of mass distribution, Betz
said, “and down through the years
this principle has contributed great
ly to the high standard of living of
American wage-earners. By provid
ing the food industry as a whole
with a reason for mass-producing,
the chain store has made everyday
staples of hundreds of commodities
which once were luxuries.
“More than ever before in its 87
year history, the company’s facilities
are being directed now toward im
proving the supply, quality and va
riety of foods. The return of more
than 27,000 experienced employees of
A & who served in the armed
forces is helping speed the installa
tion of new departments and the ex
pansion of new shopping conven
iences.
“We believe there can be no better
way to keep faith with our founder,”
Betz continued, “than by turning all
of our attention to speedier trans
portation, to more scientific packag
ing and refrigeration of perishables
and to thei mmediate, practical use
of war-developed methods of improv
ing the processing of food and the
elimination of waste and spoilage as
factors in food cost.”
The Hartford system, he pointed
tracts at prices reflecting direct dis-
five years ago A & pioneered the
mass sale of fresh fruits and vege
tables. Its “economy” stores were
expanded into “superettes,” forerun
ners of the supermarket. Now be
ing developed, Betz said, is the
“store of tomorrow,” a virtual food
department store were customers can
be served with everything edible un
der one roof.

BUSINESS
The man of business is strictly business, he understands busi
ness and he is full of business he does not meddle in other people’s
business. To worry others with your business is not business. If
you let others know your business you will soon be out of business.
When you’re in trouble it's the lawyer’s business to get out is your
business. To a»k to loan a dollar is not business, to make a loan is
poor business. Advertising is a profitable business. If a man loves
a lady, that’s his business if a lady loves a man, that’s her busi
ness. Soon they are married, that’s their business.
WE ARE IN THE CHICKEN BUSINESS
We buy the chickens you don’t want and sell you the kind of
chickens you do want. Call and see us and we will both do business.

LADY THROWS CANE
AWAY AFTER TAKING
NEW RHU-AID FORMULA
One lady, who was unable to walk
6 weeks ago, due to rheumatic pains,
says she is enjoying a normal life
once again since she took RHU-AID.
In fact, she says she has thrown her
cane away. This lady had to stay in
the house for weeks at a time, un
able to get out much. Rheumatic
pains centered in the joints of her
knees and ankles. She says she felt
stiff all over. But in less than a
week’s time, when She started taking
RHU-AID, the awful rheumatic pains
disappeared from her legs and ankles.
She is well and happy today and says
she wouldn’t take a fortune for the
relief RHU-AID has given her.
RHU-AID is the new liquid form
ula containing three valuable medical
ingredients. These Three Great Med
icines, all blended into one, go right
to the very cause of rheumatic and
neuritic aches and pains. Miserable
people soon feel different all over.
So don’t go on suffering! Get RHU
AID. A. Hauenstein & Son Drugs.
