The one thing about Ad-

average reader is the faet
that the merchant who
spends most in advertising

how can he undersell the
merchant who doesn't spend
anything for advertising f
Doesn't the ten thousand

The people who buy the

decided that South ,Omaha was the only

South Omaha needed something new and

the only way to be convinced is to call
on them. The store I. equipped with first
