~ R TRADE HAS v BEEN AS GOOD
. as in the past two weeks. Why? Because
you all know FRED GAMER keeps only the
best grades of Footwear. Because when we
advertise you know there are no misrepresentation.
When we cut the price of a Shoe from SIS to So, or from
$3.50 to $3.25, you can depend on that being Just right.
No HuMBue. We claim to be the largest buyers Of high
class Footwear in Montana, and therefore in a better
position to place goods ON sale at lower prices than any
. other firm. Now we are making a special effort for
your trade, and in the face of all competition are selling
more Footwear than any house in the state.
Follow the crowd to FRED GAMERS BIG SHOE SALE,
and you will agree with us in the above statement.
