seeking deferred classification are
seldom successful and that the appeal

boards.
The district boards, each handling

Though all local examining boards of

Registrants who have received notifi

It gave specific Instructions-, for the

only two or three counties may need

Well, you should see the extreme
values Cherry's are offering in suits

She says that she never had anything
to equal it in all her life at even twice
the money.
I bought myself a beautiful plush
coat, reduced from 165 to 337.60. Yes,
know that it is getting a little late
in the season to buy a Winter coat, but
the prices are so much cheaper now
than they will be next Fall, and mate
rials better. So you see. I figure It a
good Investment besides, I get ad
vantage of Cherry's Easy Payment sys
tem that is. a small payment down
and the balance I can arrange to pay
in small payments, just as is most con
venient. In this way, you see, the first
thing I know I have my garment all
paid for, have been getting the use of
it all the time, and do not, even miss
the money or have to stint and plan to
save up enough to buy and pay all cash.
Believe me, it is the only system.
