Automobile, Beach, Mountain and
Outing Sweaters Special at $ 1 .95
We have boaght many sweaters,
and have had many excellent values
but it remains for these sweaters to
surpass any previous offering.
This is the real point of this event.
The wholesale season is practically
over and this manufacturer with
keen business sense would rather
take a small loss now than a greater
loss later on. Me sent us a sample
with the price marked providing we
took the whole lot.
There are about 600 of these
sweaters, more than we would or
dinarily buy in one style. But the
worth is there and we know that at
$1.95 they will disappear rapidly.
$3.50 is a fair price for them. So
this saving means the biggest
sweater bargain in Portland.
