Great Sale of Dining Room Tables at Savings of .$$76 to $33.00 Merchandising in a great store like Meier & Frank's is about as interesting as anything we know of. It has many, many phases. - One unvarying rule of the store is that there always must be large stocks for our customers to see wide variety to please every taste and prices as low as or lower than any in the northwest. The reduc tions on these tables are the sequel to a determined effort on our part to procure enough dining tables to nieet our customers needs during the last year. Our customary table orders were given last April. Be cause of lumber shortage and lack of skilled labor months passed without this factory being able to deliver a single .table. The order was duplicated and given to a second maker, with the Same result of no deliveries. Finally we again repeated the order, giving it this time to a third manufacturer. Then we got deliveries from all three orders! As a consequence the public gets the benefit of these savings on standard merchandise. .. $24.25 Table $15.49 $41 Table $24.50 Waxed golden oak, 42-inch top, six-foot extension.
