The modern way isn't the tedious way of dickering and bickering; it isn't asking your family, the family next door, or the family around the corner; nor does it consist of spending,hours and days going from shop to shop and at last giving up in exhaustion, or getting something that is nothing like what you really wanted. The modern way is quick, satisfying, and simple. It is sav- ing of nerves, strength, time, cash, wear and tear; it is efficient. Reading each week's store news in the Sentinel ads, and going straight after what you want, is the modern way and it is 3,005 better than any other way, ) If you are not a student of the store news join now—this is the appointed time.
