shown in our advertising pages. To avoid the annoyance of figuring
postage costs these binders will be sold on a quantity cost basis plus
estimated average transportation costs. In other words, these will be
handled by the Association without profit, as a service to its members.
Under this arrangement the cost, delivered to members, will be about half
that of binders of the style used by the War Department when purchased at
retail, or about 65 per cent. of the cost of the latter binders when purchased
in quantities.
