Throngs of shoppers arc on every side, at each table, case and counter, choos- Ing and taking advantage of the great values which the Mill End sale offers,
 The interior of the store Is decorated throughout with small yellow stream CTS which are symbolic of the mill end sale, These with the tremendous quan- tity of merchandise displayed on im- provised racks in and around each de- partment cannot fall to impress tho ob- server of the thorough preparation which has been made for this sale.
 Busy is the word that rightly de- scribes the entire scene, for even though the firm has supplied the regu- lar selling force with scores of extra CleihS' Sllh tNeIypouN Dtilnu 'Hu counters seems to have their hands full attending to the orders of hundreds of mill end shoppers.
