A Special One-Day Sale Looking backward a few months to a certain "Managers' Sale" when $100 in gold was offered to the departments showing greatest increase of business over a corresponding period ot a year preyious, we remember that the first prize of $50 was won by and awarded to Mr. Frank M. Hamburger, the able and popular young millinery section manager. Mr. Hamburger has served notice on us ihat he has decided to capture the first prize also -of $50 in the present competitive contest this time, however, for the salesladies nuder his direction. Mr. Ham burger has never made a statement to the best of our belief in his life that he hasn't'backed up. That 'swhy this one looks .exceedingly dangerous to competing departments. The resolute way he goes at it decides us to give no odds against him. Yalues like this of today should jam the department of millinery beauty to repletion with eager, enthusiastic buj'ers. What woman won't buy a $10 Hat for $5? especially when she may select from the newest of the new and thi smartest of tlm most beautiful creations ever offered in the city. of values, comprising the $6, $7.50, $S and $30 Hats?
