In one way or another these questions are being asked and pondered over by
thoughtful men and women with heads in hands all over the world today. What
about Capital? What about Labor? What about the High Cost of Living? Are
prices to be higher or lower? Volumes might be written in addition to those al
ready in print about it and them, and after all, like the Persian Philosopher, we
would find ourselves going in at the door we came out.
The markets of this county are absolutely panicky not a panicky condition
which means smashing of prices helter-skelter, BUT A PANIC UPWARD,
PRICES SOARING, JUMPING HIGHER AND HIGHER DAILY AND HOURLY.
Now, how long will it last is on everybody's mind, if not on everybody's tongue,
Manufacturers and jobbers assure us that prices will not be lowered before 1921
and some say longer.
Six months ago when we placed our orders for this season, we knew there
would be an enormous shortage of desirable merchandise and we bought very
heavy, and from our heavy purchases we received the most complete stock of High Grade
merchandise for Men and Boys ever brought to North Platte. But storms, bad roads and
fuel situations have hampered our efforts and greatly curtailed our sales and as a result
we are very much overstocked. Therefore beginning FRIDAY MORNING, JANUARY
2nd. PROMPTLY AT NINE O'CLOCK, WE WILL START A MOST EXTRAORD-
INARY SALE.
Our Entire Stock of
Men's and Boys' High
Grade Wearing Apparel
to be placed on Sale at
75
TO
72
OFF
