To Our Customers :
The past half year, which is now one of history, was very successful for us. Although conditions were at times
very unfavorable, we have made wonderful progress, and have closed the year with monthly sales of more than five
times the amount of our first month’s business.
While we have striven hard to attain this record, much credit is due our numerous friends and customers who
stood by us during this period, and also the many new ones whom we have interested in our line of goods. To all we
extend our sincere thanks.
A policy that has brought us success in these few months requires no change, and you will find us working
along the same lines in 1908. As a means of retaining your valued patronage we shall continue to offer products of
quality and merit, prices as low as good business judgement will permit, prompt service, together with courteous
treatment
Again thanking you for the favors extended us, and wishing you and yours a Happy and Prosperous New
Year, we remain,
Sincerely yours,
Wood & Son.
