WRIGHTS' ' ) I I If the temperature had been lower one could easily imag-I imag-I I ? ine today the last shopping day before Christmas. . .The I L c Store was that crowded. I ' P At nine o'clock the crowds started and even while this is I being written the numbers increase every minute. It cer- 'i tainly looks like the Record-Breaking Sale in the history I J S of the store. I .! If you know of any experienced help send them to us . we can use them. I $ We make this prediction: Tomorrow's crowd will be ' -j greater in numbers than that of today. . .Wednesday will H'i bring an increased number again and so on until the end If of the sale. . .Why do we think so? Merely because those I j r who were here today have found the items ever so much Hi 3 -better than we promised every person who has looked H jv over the merchandise today will go away a living adver- tisement for the sale. ..You should have heard the expressions ex-pressions here today as we displayed the good, clean merchandise mer-chandise at prices which will positively effect sales. All that is said about newspaper advertising is probably true but there is no greater advertisement than a pleased customer and there are hundreds of them boosting for this sale right this minute that's why we look for every day's sales to be a little larger. This store will look rather scantily stocked when the last day of the sale comes we are bending every effort to make a complete clearance simply sell everything here turn the stocks all out clean out the stock rooms empty the shelves have nothing left. The first of July started for us another year our last year's business has been figured up the inventory taken tak-en the balance struck the books closed . . . The goods on our shelves today cost us no more thn the valuation jtfj we placed upon them wheathey were' counted. ..In a ? way everything we have now is left-over stock and since we took it at a low price in inventory, don't you see J E that we can afford to sell it cheap? , jp See the windows that's a good way to get an idea of the values offered and above all things don't fail to see Z . jjj the Second Floor. You will simply be astonished at the If prices. All of those fine ready to wear things which are f f so tempting to women are being sold out at ridiculously ij low prices. ;pP Remember also the Busy Basement Store, where the cur- tains, blankets, trunks, crockery, etc., are being offered ? S at small prices. ' '" S Remember also the clothing store, where hundreds of. 1 m men are today being outfitted at bargain prices. jll If there's anything you want at all buy it now. " 'm |
