Rapid Growth of an Optical and Cam- 

 era Business- 



W. A. McClelland reports satisfac- 

 tory progress in the upbuilding of the 

 branch of his business opened last May 

 in the building formerly occupied by 

 The Putnam Trust Company in Green- 

 wich, Connecticut- Mr. MeClelland's 

 business in Stamford has also out- 

 grown its present location and will 

 necessitate enlargements in the near 

 future. Both stores are equipped with 

 every facility for supplying eyeglasses 

 cameras and similar optical goods. At 

 the Stamford store an expert photo- 

 grapher and assistants are doing com- 

 mendable work for amateurs, and the 

 store is rapidly advancing along these 

 lines. Mr. McClelland and Mr. Pratt, 

 who is associated with him, have be- 

 come popular through their courteous 

 and genial manners and through the 

 satisfactory treatment which they give 

 to every customer. There is a pleas- 

 ing, homelike atmosphere of geniality 

 about the store that has proved more 

 than attractive. These methods to- 

 gether with the high class goods sold 

 at reasonable prices are rapidly build- 

 ing up an enormous optical business 

 We are glad to know that the public is 

 in sympathy with these enterprising 

 gentlemen. They deserve it-
