It isn't the sort of thing you can write an "ad" about. The time-honored phrases of
the craft are inadequate. But this is the stark reality of it: There are practically. twenty
thousand shirts involved and they are offered at prices that only a successful series of
gigantic merchandising coups makes, possible prices that in many instances fall below
the wholesale costs today. . That's the nub of it. How our buyers months ago in the largest
shirt manufacturing centers of the country engineered the deals to make this sale pos
sible is intensely interesting, thrilling but what of it. You want to know what you're
going to get. Well, we think that this is everything considered

ing days, BUT some lots, despite the large quantities, are almost
certain to be depleted early, so please do not blame us if you come
too late. Now read-what good luck this sale brings you and be

occasion the entire Main Floor thoroughfare tables running
