Show I I A GOOlJE TO TRADE I The Long Expected Event I I I Begins Tomorrow j I I i4 Store WiWe Clearance Sale Begins With The j I j Opening Of The Store Tomorrow Morning J I i this is the literal fulfilment of the prophecy made hy ! I j many that prices would find a lower level after Christmas. j I j no reasoning person could expect prices to remain at the I I ! high levels they reached during the war. j no farseeing merchant will ever hope to sell his stocks on j m I j hand on the basis of what he paid for them. j I for every manufacturer in the land will now sell mer- j p I chandise at lowered prices. Stocks must, therefore, be j n I j looked upon as worth only the prices at which they can now j M I be replaced. j E I j every merchant in the land is, therefore, due to take a j I I I Joss; might just as well do it cheerfully, do it liberally j M I j and do it now. I I j the sooner we can clear away these great stocks; the j I j sooner will we be in position to take advantage of the i M I j lowered prices. I I I now the public will buy liberally they will buy all of ! those things that they have so greatly needed. No longer J B i uiJJ housewives strain to get along without the merchandise ! I j they need, j I c j i and we venture this prediction'. This lowering of prices will be adopted by progressive stores in every I i city in America. Stocks will be consumed rapidly; mills will be called upon for more merchandise; the I wheels of commerce will begin to spin, our railroads will be spurred to greater activity; idle hands will j be employed. America will enter an era of prosperity such as she had not known be I ore. I I I our step in this march of progress starts tomorrow. The sale is to be store wide. Lowered prices will I IB i J apply to everything. Charges will be suspended, for cash will be the rule, and as rapidly as merchandise j 15 turned in cash, the cash anil be reinvested in fresh merchandise. A GOOD PLI TO' TRADE j I I 1 j Wi |
