KEEP OUT SHOPPERS

Shoppers eager for bargains
thronged the sidewalks at the B. d.

for the counters that could be excell-
ed only by a metropolitan sale. The
store filled so quickly that the sales
managers were soon compelled to
close the doors to keep out the buy
ers. People were here from Marion
and other surrounding counties. The
closing out sale is proving to be one
of the largest ever held in Abilene. 1t
is estimated that l 500 people visited
the establishment during the day.
The days receipts aggregated $4,000.
Business was augmented at other
stores because of the many shoppers
