The Tremendous Movement Set in Progress
V
by the Meier & Frank Store
when, on that memorable Sunday two weeks ago, it announced its determination to throw its entire stocks of the world's
best merchandise on the market forthwith at substantially -lower prices than the lowest obtainable up to the launching of
this sale, has been the biggest individual contribution to the cause of
lower prices yet made on the Pacific coast. We are glad to record that
our example has been followed by some other stores to the best of their
ability we knew that we were doing the right thing at the right time and
nothing but good could come of it. We are sensible of the recognition
accorded our efforts by the shopping public and we shall bend every
effort to make the benefits of this movement available to the largest num
ber of people as long as it will be possible for us to keep it up.
This Then Is Notice
that tomorrow we shall begin the third week of the wonderful value-giving
which has made this sale the most talked of, as it has been the most
eagerly availed of distribution of merchandise Jn years.
32 BROADSIDES
OF BARGAINS
Not the least of the wonderful features of this wonder
ful sale is the filling of every one of our 32 show windows
with "bargains" in the best sense of the word old-fashioned
bargains in everyday wanted merchandise GOOD
merchandise at astoundingly low prices. No wonder that so
many Portlanders make it a point to look in our windows
every time' they pass, for their contents are changing in
kaleidoscopic fashion to keep up with the demand, which is
the most remarkable we have ever experienced for mer
chandise thus displayed. You know that this window mer
chandise is not advertised. It does not need to be, for as
quickly as people see the goods and the price they lose no
time in buying. See our windows today they've all been
freshly changed.
(CONTRACT LINES AND GROCERIES EXCEPTED)
That is it "Every Article Reduced" the first, last and the best word the wonderful thing that has come to pass at
Meier & Frank's and that brings back all the best buying opportunities of the old time
January Clearance Sales
BIG Surprise
which we have planned to start off this third week like its
two predecessors, in whirlwind fashion, is one that will ap
peal to every home, being nothing less than a
Grocery Surprise
As you know, groceries have been and will continue to be
excepted from the general reductions in price, but we are
going to give our grocery patrons extra good values in cer
tain standard lines of the staple commodities mentioned be
low (while present quantities last). As before, we are not
going to advertise individual items and prices, for we want
this to be a surprise, indeed, so
We Have Literally "Filled"
Three Big Windows
at our Fifth and Alder corner with good, staple, everyday
wanted groceries such as
Ham Flour Bacon
Lard Butter Coffee
Canned Fruits and Vegetables
Milk Jams and Jellies Syrup
Walnuts Soaps Cereals
Baking Powder Chocolate
We promise you and everyone interested in cutting the cost on these
commodities that the prices will be so astonishingly LOW that it will
pay you to see these windows today and come down town early tomor
row prepared to make the most liberal provision for your needs
While the Present Quantities Last
of Items Displayed in Our Windows
We have tried to provide reasonably large quantities of
these surprise specials in groceries, but early shoppers will
be SURE to get their share. We reserve the right to limit
quantities and, to give everyone an equal chance, we must
say: No telephone orders.
Think what that means Every Article Reduced at this store. Think of the
magnitude of the Meier & Frank stocks far and away the largest in the northwest.
Think of being able to choose from these stocks, what you will, anywhere in the store,
at substantially lower prices than the already low prices at which they had been
marked prior to this sale. Everything. EVERYTHING. Yes, everything in the Meier
& Frank stocks from end to end and from top to bottom everything from the base
ment to the great Furniture floors everything from a paper of pins to a whole house
full of furniture everything on our 11 great retail floors everything that we sell
everything for person and home EVERYTHING (contract lines and groceries ex
cepted) now at a lower, much lower, price.
Why, If This Were a Furniture Sale
alone, or a sale of apparel alone to mention these among the nearly a hundred departments affected this would
still be one of the greatest sales imaginable, but it is more, many times more it is a sale of every article in every
department of the Meier & Frank store (contract lines and groceries excepted).
In Addition to the
General Reductions
which are in every instance considerable and
worth-while, there are in every department
also many lots priced down to the vanishing
point priced without regard to cost or profit
which are in themselves reasons enough
why so many keen judges of values make it
a point to walk through the store every day
they are down town.
And As We Said Before
In all our 63 years of store-keeping we have
never had such a volume of business, never
been so. strongly equipped from every point
of view as we are today to conduct such an
enterprise as this for the public benefit.
