Home Defense Prices!
As one of the Chief Distributors, in this commun
ity, of an essential necessity clothing we feel it is
our duty to keep the prices down during these wild and
turbulent times. - To this end, overstepping the bounds,
of conservatism, we have gone into the market and
bought surplus quantities of merchandise, thus tieing
up all our capital and more and increasing our risks in
order that we may save this community from the ex
treme high prices that everywhere now prevail. We
are called fools by some for doing this. We could sell
man) of these goods at wholesale for more than we are
asking you. We bought them for you - we want you
to make the saving that in turn you may invest it for
the "bo s over there." These Home Defense Prices
will prevail as long as our present stock lasts. If there
is any question in your mind as to the genuineness of
our position we ask you to investigate.
