Attractive Dollar Bargains

has been engaged for Friday, Dollar
Day, and Will play selections in al
the stores which have signified their
intention of celebrating this first big
shopping event in this city. The
Highlanders Will be on the war path

attraction for the hundreds of shop
pers who will be in and out of the
stores during the day.
All the merchants are busy on their
windows, and several of them have al
ready completed their decorations.
The bargains on view so far are at
tracing crowds TO the stores and the
store keepers are being impOrtuned to
lay aside some of their articles until
Friday. That the dollar bargains on
view are really bona fide is acknowl-
edged by every one. There is a fine
spirit of healthy competition among
the merchants who are vieing with
each other in arranging attractive dis
plays. The success of the undertake
ing is now assured, and il will, here
after most likely develop into a semi
annual affair.
The country buyers will be in the
city in force Friday, and every eff
fort will be made to entertain them
and to give them a good impression
of the city and it's live and up-to-date
stores.
Wednesday morning The News
