Reconstruct ION
THE OLD SUIT
i is TOO SMALL

Some time ago a young man
wrote US a pathetic letter about
a suit of clothes purchased at
this store ten years ago.
81 am the youngest Of the
Jamily," he said, "aHd this
sMf has been handed DOM from
brother 10 brother, as they grew
older, and IL is in such good
condition vet that am drsad-
Tally afraid ii lDW Iivs 10 reach
me. Won't YOU take il bach be-
fore Ibave to rear it,"
This old building is like that
suit of clothes. 1t has served
one family after another, as they
grew up, wearing wonderfully
well.
Long after It was really out
grown, we patched it up, let out
the seams, and made it do-but
now it can be stretched no
lareer,an we must RECON-
STRUCT; rebuild
But this contracts our space.
More than a fourth Of the store
is in the hands Of the builders,
as you can see. Stocks are ter
ribly crowded in the space that
remains.
There must be a RECON-
STRUCTION OF THE
STOCKS, while we are recon-
structine the building, and to re-
duee them to a proper, workable
and comfortable size, we are hold
ing special RECONSTRUC-
TION SALES in many parts
