Beyond any dis- pute, it is the most valuable, most tangible as- set one can have, It is largely GOOD WILL which makes a man or wo- man buy jewelry from us in preference to buying of a competitor. This preference is a sufficient protection against the blight of hard times. It renders one inde- pendent of wars and rumors of wars; of competition, de- pression and panic. - For years we have been furnishing our trade with high grade jewelry that have enabled us to build “good will” to weather the storms that tossed others on the rocks. A satisfied clientele always has meant more to us than a fattened purse. We'd rather make a friend than make a dollar. Once yon patronize Klein & Son you'll realize what service and Good Will mean. 3Klein & $on Jewelers “Uſtye &ift £ebop of Ølabama” 3.
