MERCHANTS IN
MOVEMENT TO
BOOST TRADE
Real Buying Opportunity for
People of MiddIesex County
at Big Cooperative Fare
Refunding Sale, Oct. 24-31.

Nearly forty Perth Amboy pro-
gressive merchants have already
agreed to cooperate with the NEWS
In promoting a Big Cooperative
Fare-refunding Sale, the greatest
trading event ever held in Perth
Amboy, week Of October "a to 81.
They are thoroughly enthused with
the plan to refund railroad fares on
the cooperative plan to their out-of-
town customers during this sale, and
when this, in addition to the re-
markable bargains in up-to-the-min-
ute merchandise, is taken into con-
sideration, the event will surpass
any effort of its kind ever made in
Perth Amboy or anywhere in this
section of the state.
BY the plan, as previously an
nounced In the NEWS, practically all
the leading merchants In Perth Am
boy, are preparing to make special
effort to draw people here to trade
during this big cooperative sale.
There will be special bargains at
nearly every store, and the wise eco
nomical buyers can certainly save
money by taking advantage of the
unusual opportunity to do their
shopping in Perth Amboy during the
week of October "a to 81.
Not only are the merchants going
to make special inducements to the
buying public in the way of prices
and assortment of seasonable mer-
chandise, but in addition to this they
have arranged to refund the railroad
fares to all out-of-town customers.
Shoppers may distribute their pat
ronage among as many stores as they
maye desire, and then by coming to
the NEWS office, will be presented
with the cash total of the railroad
fare from their home to Perth Am
boy and return.
A pleasing feature of this part of
the arrangement as previously stated
is the fact that person is not COM
PEELED to make his purchases all at
one store, but he can, on the con-
trary, trade at as many different
stores as he may like, the only pro-
vision being that the aggregate
amount of his purchases equal the
sum designated in the published
schedule. Say, for instance, q per-
son coming from town where the
amount to be purchased is SIS, can,
II desired, trade at fifteen different
stores, spending 81 at each place
and be entitled to his fare back just
the same as though he spent the
whole SIS at one store The pur-
chases, however, must all be made at
the stores which are participating In
the sale, and whose names are listed
on the back of the refunding slips
furnished by the merchants to each
customer. Full instructions as to
how these refunding slips are to be
used will be published In the NEWS
containing the special bargains of
the merchants which will be issued
in few days. Watch for 1t and post
yourself thoroughly on this and all
other features of the big sale. That
edition will also direct you where
to get genuine bargains.
Where to Get Bargains.
Here is list of the stores where
bargains will be found and where
fares will be refunded. Cut 1t out
and send 1t to your relatives and
friends residing outside of Perth
Amboy. 1t will give them some idea
of the magnitude Of this sale and
what 1t will mean to them.
