BLOUSES
or Those Who Want to Save

If you have any desire whatever to save
on your Roluses,g then by all means should
you buy them here. p+@'@ = n
Just stop to consider that we are COOP
Grating with the makers in a manner that
eliminates all selling costs, and reduces
making costs to a bare minimum.
Summed up this means buying our
BlOuses for less, and in accord with our
established principle selling them for less.
We don't claim the impossible; but we do
claim that cooperation of the right kind
between manufacturer and retailer cuts
cost, eliminates waste and makes better
values possible.
And because of such cooperation Wtth
the resulting superiority in values, you can
always exercise substantial savings on the
Blouses you buy here.
Here are some good examples of Thrift
in blouse buying WirthmOr Waists, that
would really sell for more, that are worth
more and are prettily styled, dependably
made and perfect fitting, and are still
priced at just $500. See these new models
tomorrow, and you'll wonder, as we some.
times do, how it's possible in the face OF
rising costs to still sell these Waists at this
low price

This machine is equipped with magazines carry ing an assortment of the latest faces in display type which is not the case with any other linotype in South western Alaska. Our antquated paper cutter is also being replaced by more up-to-date make; punching machine and other equipment and material is being added and when it all arrives the Daily Times will have
 plant that will compare favorably with those in the larger cities in the States
