After Christmas
S!

When we purchase our Stocks f o r the Christmas
season we would like to be able to purchase just enough
so that there wouldn't be any unreasonable goods left
over. But that isn't possible, so, in accordance with
our policy of having large, complete stocks, we pur-
chase very literally so as not to disappoint.
The result is that after Christmas day we are sure to
have here and there a lot of Christmas goods on hand.
These we do not care to carry over into next season,
SO we cutth prices toreduce the stocks quicklyt to normal.
This affords after Christmas Shoppers a great opportunity for
saving money. Those who have been presented with cash will
find this opportunity especially advantageous, they can spend
their Xmas money and get more for it than they had calculated.
While we list only a comparatively few items, it must be remem-
bered that throughout the store u will find many others
equally attractive
