Last year we distributed 70,720 fifty-pound lots of Consumers coal. You may call them advertising samples or charity just as you choose. In either event we know that we kept 70,720 families warm. This is our Christmas offering and in this manner we propose to make Christmas last all winter. If we profit by it later—when these good folks are in position to become paying customers, you won’t care, will you? We think not.
