GREAT ANNUAL STOCK REDUCING SALES BEGIN TUESDAY MORNING
Seldom has Omaha's "Biggest of Big Stores" put forth a greater or a more united effort toward the reduction of its mammoth stocks. All mid-winter
merchandise, odds and ends of holiday goods and broken lines must be closed out. Heads of departments have been instructed to use the price chopper unspar
ingly. Every bargain offered is real values mentioned are not inflated, but are strictly genuine. When we say "half price" we honestly mean half price. The
turning of strictly new, up-to-date, dependable merchandise into the almighty dollar must be attained that our buyers may know just where they are at, before
their semi-annual descent upon eastern markets for spring buying. . ,
