June! Ever notice how some words instantly bring to the mind certain things?
 The names of the months are especially significant of events.
 January and May are synon- nous for White Sales. February and August are synonmou for Furniture Sales.
 April invariably means Showers of Silks.
 But what of June?
 Heretofore we've overlooked poor little June-given it no particular significance what soever, as an important month in the store.
 But beginning with this June we are going to make it @ household word-we are going to make it mean some thing in the households of Birmingham.
 Not only to June brides We are going to make it the month when "#the new din- ing room suite came.' '' The month when II bought such splendid table linens at Loveman. Joseph & Loeb's. /" The month when I bought Mason jars and preserving e1gar at factory cost. But the story of June has just begun-watch for the new chapters appearing on this page daily.
