STARTS
Thla has been a peculiar season with us. We bought largely early.
Had very active sales. Stock became depleted. Buyer rushed east again,
and yet again.
Mild weather recently held up the business a wee bit, and so we
find ourselves with more garments than we ought to have at the CLOSE
OP THE YEAR.
The ill wind for us is in the right quarter FOR YOU.
Nor is this all. Desirable merchandise is scarce, due to dye short
age, etc. No telling when the EMBARGO WILL BE LIFTED.
Are you not, then, impressed with the advantage to you from this
great sale?
