The good work to which we refer
is the Going Out of Business Sale
at The Leader, and it is a good
work for it means to the pur
chasers the opportunity to .pur
chase goods at lower prices than
they ever be fore purchased
them in North Pl&tte. It is a
good work for the proprietor, for
the sales are so heavy as to
warrant him making the pro
posed change in business. It is
an actual fact that goods in
many instances are being sold
away below wholesale prices;
and many of our customers at
this sale will readily tell you
that this statement is true.
Watch our windows for changes
in displays and prices
