.This .great mile, which Is held
every:, year liys the big Central
, struct store , Is known .an 'Mann'
.. July Clearance", ,und '...is' awaited
by hundreds of Uirifty , southern
Oregon shoppers, who' have come
to know of the exceptional yalue-i
offered during tljla. event.. v...-
The exact figures for Saturday's
business are not .u,uita complete,
but a record Jimp day., was. al
ready established. Thin is, indojCl
a tribute to this, store, by the
shoppers of Met'ford and vicinity.
. Mr. Moffat, yie general manager
01 tanii s, siaiea, tnal an. in
crease of 44 ncr cent over" last
year's, , business l was , 'already .on
the books and tiiat before closing
time,' ho , expected that increase, to
; reach,;, 4S , pet cept, , nil;itig th,e
largest single .days' "business In

comparison,, -w I t , laqt .. year's
higher prices,, prpving . this record
' dayman unusual,, achievement. The
opening d.ay.lait year., was t(ip ;lnst
Saturday o-r the niqnth, . the same
as yesterday. : ' .. .
With such nn announccmpnt as
the above,, it is , bardlo,, believe
.that a depression or , so-called
depression' -has. over -.axlale d, . ,es
' pecinlly 'in -southern Oregon.
It I? impossible. ,fuv,. the goneral
public to understand tho A'ast
amount of planning necessary,, -In
securing the hundreds of items
which must be assembled for a
sale of tills magnitude. Wholesale
houses from all parts of tne
United States are called upon to
quote prices. They aro Informed
many weeks In advance Just what
Is , wanted. Their salesmen call,
lines are bought and the rcsuU.is
Mann's customers profit.
Mann's Department store is a
firm believer of consistent adver
tising. They are progressive mer
chants who. are always striving to
give their customers tho best the
marfcots of the world afford ftt
prices within .the reach, of. all.
This policy coupled with the ex
ceptional low prices prevailing
during, the July clearance no
doubt account for this huge dnyy'
volume and the ever-gloving
opularlty of this store.
