$2. 50 plaid silks $R1.48 yard

A great showing of beautiful plaids. 36 inches wide, in new gingham effect combinations. Very fine quality, handsome col brings and one of the best values in this great January Silk Sale.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1919-01-12

I placed orders for all silks way back in the early fall. before the advance in prices of desirable silk fabrics. Had we bought them at the present market quotations the prices on these silks would be astonishingly higher. Elegance and refinement are two essentials for silks worn by women of the better class, in order that they may wear them with that feeling of sense and assurance of being as well dressed as any other woman at social gatherings or in the ordinary routine of their daily lives I wish to impress this important fact upon your minds: The silks that con- stitute this sale includes a variety that few stores show In fact there is not a weave or fabric that Dame Fashion says will be in de- mand that you'll not find fully represented. The coorings, designs and weaves are such as must make as strong appeal to women who know that the apparel should be the frame to the picture, and that they them selves are the picture.
 From my point of view, with the scarcity of silk fabrics and prices the highest in history, this sale presents an exceptional opportunity to buy silks way under their real value. And I feel certain that you will agree with my point of view. hope every one of you will come to the sale prepared to buy your silk needs for great while to come.

Printed and plain weaves. The truly regal beauty of this silk has made it one of the most popular. They come in wonderful print ings and plain colors, and we say without fear of contradiction that Malli- sons pussy willows are the best and most desirable silks made.
