GROGANS

One of the most absolutely
unfounded beliefs of some
people is that our prices must
be high, simply because we
allow our customers months
of time in which to pay for
their home furnishings.
We prove beyond ques-
ton that this idea is wrong by
marking the price of every
article in our store in fig
ures you can read.
There is no haggling over
prices here; we do not mark
them by a secret code and
then tell you the price ac-
cording to what we think you
will be willing to pay.
We know that our prices
are as low as you can find for
goods of equal value, and We
prove it by putting them right
where you can see just what
they are--an invitation that
you make the cost careful
comparison with the best
prices of any other house in
the city.
Can you think of any more
convincing evidence to prove
the truth of our claim?
