Closed All Day Friday (New Year's Day) THE PEOPLE OF OMAHA will read with pleasure that our husiness for the year 1914 showed a very big increase over our business for the year 1913. This success means to us that we have measured up to the expectations of the people of this city and surrounding territory who patronize us so generously almost unanimously. This will be an inspiration to us to make still greater efforts. The people of Omaha take just pride in the lirandeis Stores. There is not a parallel to these stores in any other city pt the size of Omaha. The Immensity of our Stores, the Completeness and Variety of our Stocks and the high efficiency of our service is the wonder of commercial men who visit Omaha. The Brandeis Stores speak well for Omaha. They typify the thriving spirit that is characteristic of Omahans and Nebraskans generally. The. Brandeis Stores are usually compared with the very best 6tores of New York and Chicago. That there should be such a large and well-equipped merchandising institution in the City of Omaha carries an inference of wealth and progress for Omaha and Nebraska. That the year just dawning be one of prosperity, peace, happiness and health for all U our fondest wish, and to our array of faithful employes, whose loyalty has been our strongest help in achieving our success, we extend our sincere appreciation. We will start the new year with a merchandising event that will benefit every home in Omaha and for hundreds of miles around: . Our JANUARY WHITE SALE . It will bp the bigcest in our history, so far as quantity of merchandise is concerned, but what is far more important to all is the fact that we have brought the immense pur chasing power of our stores here and in New York to bear upon prices, and by buying in enormous quantities we have obtained concessions that will mean considerable saving to the people, who wait for this 6ale every year to stock up on all white merchandise.
