My dear Ward:
When | told you to mark
those overcoats $35 and
$39,75 | felt that | had been
compelled by market condi-
lions to become almost a
highway robber, but | feel
quite different after seeing
those same $50 coats dis
played in a standard store
window here and marked,
mind you, $5L75.
l knew | bought them UNI
der prevailing market quo
tations but ! really didn't
know how great a bargain
| was offering.
There is no possible
chance of your duplicating
them, and | really hope
you'll have enough to take
care of our regular trade,
| would not try to dis
pose of suits or overcoats
to transient trade. There
is a great scarcity of cloth
ing and i want our regular
Bennington trade to be
taken care of first.
Sincerely,
E-1e--y ;. Cc!e.

Demand for First Cotton Bale.

The appearance of the first bale of
cotton is made an occasion in many
markets and is sod at auction. Buy
ers compete for the privilege of pur-
chasing the first bale on account of
the advertising prestige. and often run
the price to a very hisl: figure.
