Sales and silks

For thirteen years we have been holding
Fall Silk Sales. Some years sales from
the customers standpoint, have been
good, some have been better.
This Autumn Sale, we believe, will prove
this the best ever.
It's certainly better in merchandise. There
are larger quantities of it-and the sual-
tiles are better.
The only real advantage we have in proyid-
ing for these sales is in the potential I'M.
fuence of our large and larger purchases
from sources of supply.
All rebounding to the benefit Of our customers and
likewise ourselves.
