Penney & Co. m * * ^ ' ’ Chain 1 The point we are making, you can plainly see. is that the Rugs we have bought and are now buying will be at prices made to hold for a year to come, and we assure you of a saving over goods bought the last year, of from 10 to 20 per c en t Several shipments of Rugs are now on the way and should arrive about the 20th of this month, with several other shipments to arrive about May 1st. We are often asked if the Rugs made now are as good as those made formerly when we used German dyes. We can assure you they are. And we firmly believe they will even be better. Do yon know that in the year 1914 our exports of dyes to all countries was but a littlag over $500,000? Where in 1918 it had grown to over seventeen million. Certainly there must be some virtue in them. 1 Usco SA L E M , O R E G O N ' A Good Tire Y ear You have doubtless noticed the growing preponderance of United States Tires.
