Will Have Another Sale

Saturday last, was market day in
Kendrick, the weather had changed
so that the farmers were permitted
to get into their fields after the long
rainy spell and of course not many
were in town. The sale was carried
out as advertised and the articles
that were placed on sale were sold
to the highest bidder. Just because
the crowd was small does not mean
that the Chamber of Commerce will
not hold another sale, for they will.
Now keep this in your mind and
watch for the date, and while watch
ing look around the farm and at
your home in town and see if you
have something to sell that you have
no use for, maybe your neighbor
can use it, bring it to town and sell
it. 1t costs you ABSOLUTELY nothing
to sell it. The stores will also place
bargains on the counters, that are
bargains. The Club means business
and expects you to honor their effort!
by your presence, Watch for the
date.
