Ctritorial
The Christmas holidays
awaken the "do-something-for-others"
spirit in all of us.
A store can be just a store,
or it can be an institution that
recognizes its responsibilities
and fully appreciates its duties.
The "do-s omethin g-for-
others" spirit is the founda
tion of these great January
sales, and we believe you will
agree we ARE "doing some
thing" in offering staple mer
chandise at today's wholesale
prices, and in some cases for
even LESS.
For instance:
Take our great clothing
prices for spring are
than today's retail
sale ;
higher
prices.
Our lingerie, our wonderful
linens, our white goods, etc,
are all priced in this sale at
about replacement cost and in
many instances LESS.
Don't you believe we
are doing our level
best to lower the
cost of living?
