Come to Perth Amboy to trade"
is the slogan to be used by every one
Of our merchants. Shout it so loud
that it can be heard for twenty-five
miles in every direction and let the
people of this section know what this
big cooperative trading festival
will mean to you.
That this big cooperative sale will
be a great success from every point
of view Is attested by the character
of the firms that have already united
In the movement and have agreed
to refund the fares to all out-of-town
customers during the big week s
sale.
These merchants are planning to
make this actually the greatest trad
ing opportunity ever known in Perth
Amboy or anywhere in this section
of the state.
Fare-refunding Plan.
Special attention is called to the
= fare-refunding feature of this big
cooperative sale. Under the ar
rangement, fares are to be refunded
to all out-of-town customers who do
their shopping in Perth Amboy dur
ing this sale. Persons coming 10
Perth Amboy from any of the towns
listed in the schedule, should keep in
mind this feature, and be sure to get
their fares refunded before leaving
for home.
Not only will the people coming
direct from the outside towns get
their fares refunded, but farmer
residing near any of the places listed
in the schedule will also get his fare
or an amount equivalent to the price
of railroad ticket refunded to him
whether he comes by auto, team or
rail. A rate has also been made for
the inland towns in the radius of the
sale so as not to show an partially
in this respect.
This, of course, is in addition to
the many special bargains to be Of
fered by the merchants during this
UlS COOptidIlFo safe.
Another Pleasing Feature.
Another pleasing feature of this
part of the arrangements is the fact
that a person is not compelled to
make his purchases all at one store,
but he can, on the contrary, trade at
as many stores as he may like, the
only provision being that the aggre
gate amount of his purchases equal
the sum designated in the published
schedule. Say for instance, person
coming from town where the
amount to be purchased is SIS. can,
If desired, trade at fifteen different
stores, spending one dollar at each
place, and still be entitled to his fare
back just the same as though he
spent the SIS at one store. The
purchases, however, must all be
made at the stores which are partici-
pating in the sale, and whose names
are listed on the back of the refund
ing slips furnished by the merchants
to each customer. Full instructions
as to how these refunding slips are
to be used will be published on the
first page of the special edition OF
the NEWS, containing the announce
ment and the special bargains OF
the merchants which will be issued
In few days. Watch for it and post
yourself thoroughly on this and
many other features of the big sale.
This edition will also direct you
