Dalton Brothers held an informal opening of their enlarged store Friday evening from 8 to 10 o’clock. Music was furnished by Moore’s Orchestra and refreshments were served to the many friends calling to extend their congratulations. The occasion was a happy one. Hundreds of friends called to share in their hospitality and to congratulate the members of the firm on their enlargement and to a greater and bigger Dalton Brothers.
Dalton Brothers inaugurated their opening sale Saturday morning, May 2nd, which will continue through Saturday, May 9th.
Dalton Brothers opened in Forest City September 1, 1922, with small capital and modest stock. By application of strict business principles, honesty and air dealing, their store has become known through this section. Thru the application of the same principles and the high class of merchandise handled, they have been enabled, during their 2 ½ years of business existence, to double their floor space and double many times the value of their stock.
The firm is composed of Messrs. George W. and John Dalton, sons of Mr. E.H. Dalton of Forest City, R-2. They are assisted by their sister, Miss Emma Dalton.
Mr. John Dalton, manager, attended the University of North Carolina. During the World War he served with distinction in the 81st Division in France.
Both of these young men are Rutherford County boys, and are well known throughout the county. Their many friends are gratified to learn of their splendid success in business which has been achieved through courteous dealing, honesty and integrity.
