The
German attack against Mont Haut was dlspened
Enemy COIJPi de main north of Vauxaliion In
Carny sector and on the Vudun front noar
Beth ncourt and Lamorille Wore eully repulsed

In one town all the Grocer.
• agreed to tell their customers that
dehvery, and credit too, cost money.
They said It wa~ not fair that the
customer who took goodl home
should pay as much as the cus.
tomer who mSlsted on havmg every.
thmg sent
So they charged a penny for
every dehvery, large or small
They charged a bttle extra for
booking goods, too, because bookkeeping costs money and It 18 not
fair that the cash cUltomer should
pay as much as the credit customer
If the Grocers m another town
can do thiS, why nof the Reading
GroceiS ? The Readmg 13utchen
are domg It they charge an extra
I,d a pound for dehvery and 1.<1
a pound credit
