Herald MRS.
TUCKER PLANT HAS 25th BIRTHDAY
Mrs. Tucker and the Denison Herald, neighbors for twenty-five years, have helped to build and advertise the Southwest, and are both celebrating anniversaries this year. While the Herald celebrates its golden year – with fifty years of service to North Texas and Southern Oklahoma – Mrs. Tucker, in Sherman, celebrates her silver anniversary. Mrs. Tucker’s shortening was first placed on the market in 1913 when kitchen work was mostly drudgery; and, during the last quarter of a century, this ever-improved shortening has played a large part in helping this section create a better market for its products, and in making cooking more certain and enjoyable. Mrs. Tucker’s shortening was the first to carry on it containers “Made Exclusively From Choice Cotton Seed Oil,” and her policy of making only a pure, vegetable product has meant much to digestion and health in the Southwest. When housewives showed a preference for shortening in cartons of . . .economy, Mrs. Tucker pioneered and developed air-tight inner seals of cellophane, which has made her product known as the "Shortening with the Silver Lining." After a quarter of a century of laboratory testing and control, Mrs. Tucker's shortening continues to fill homes with more smiles of cooking and eating satisfaction. As a feature of the twenty-fifth anniversary, Mrs. Tucker is offering a four pound carton of her shortening for 25c if it is paid for with a 1913 quarter, the year in which she started business. Mrs. Tucker also is offering beautiful silver plated spoons on which her kindly face is embossed, which are guaranteed for a life time of service. These two neighbors join hands - The Herald in Denison and Mrs. Tucker in Sherman - in a friendly spirit to continue their good work for the Red river section and the entire Southwest.
