BRETT'S STORE FOUR YEARS OLD On Oct. 3, 1914, one of Altoona's leading department stores was launched and today, the store which has steadily grown and prospered and become a household word in practically all homes in the city and surrounding country, is celebrating its fourth anniversary. Bretts means fair dealing, and the store is prepared to start on its fifth year in Altoona without a regret, without an excuse and with no apologies to make. The store has made good, and the people of Altoona have recognized its worth as a shopping center. When the store opened four years ago the management decided to give all persons who made purchases on the opening day, an annual dividend of 5 per cent. A record was kept of the sales and all persons making purchases at Bretts on Oct. 3, 1914 can get their dividend by calling at the store today. In addition to the dividend, the store is offering a discount of 10 per cent. to all patrons of the store on this, the fourth anniversary. Altoona Times, Thursday Morning, October 3, 1918
