An increasing number of PensacoIa's s
join hands with The Journal in one OF
the greatest bargain tubilees ever held
In the southern states, beginning April
5th and ending April 18th.
A glance at the list published below
win give the reader some idea of the
many places in which he may trade.
and the variety of the goods one may
purchase to ent1t1e him to the money
spent In coming to town.
BY the plan as previously announced
by The Journal, practically every mer-
chant of Importance in the city is pre-
pairing to make a special effort to draw
people to Pensacola to trade during
the Big Cooperative Festival. Many
of the merchants are planning special
bargains and the wise economical
buyers can certainly save money by
this opportunity to lay in a supply OF
all kinds of merchandise during the
week April 9Th to April 18th.
And to make the plan doubly plain,
please understand Ghat for that xeek
the out-of- town buyer need not ngure
in his railroad fare when he is max
ing UP the cost budget of trip to ehe
Deep Water City. All that is neces-
sary is TO purchase an amount of goods
required. according to the schedule
soon to be published, take the refund
slip with which the merchants are to
be supplied. to The Journal and the
cash viii be paid to you.
Many of the merchants are already
talking about, and have under conSid-
GRAFTON plan to provide some suitable
sort of entertainment during the fes-
tivaI week.
C. w Parker. of Watson, Parker g.
Reese Co, thought it might be a good
idea to have the Commercial Assoc1a-
tion plan some sort OF entertainment
even suggesting a boat trip. Others
reported in opposition to this idea that
it would be difficult to arrange any
particular time, as the ut-of-town
people would undoubtedly drift in at
all times during the week. and a meet
ing and starting place would be DIM
cult to arrange.
H o. Anson, of the Anson Shoe
Store. put forth the idea that enter
tainment was absolutely necessary. and
would be taken care OF in an tndl-
vidual way If not collectively He said:
"A trip on the bay or any other thing
that the merchants may propose TO
entertain the people is a good idea I
certainly would not expect guests TO
my home to walk around and enter
tain themselves and l am sure that the
merchants will collectively meet all
the requirements
w A Ray, of the w. A. Ray Hard
ware Co, was one OF the original
boosters in the trade week plan, being
very enthusiastic about it when the
idea was first broached to him by

an oversight the name of his firm was
left out in the list published yesterday.
