Managers Statement

To my friends that are surprised to see
a sale at this store let me say that circum-
stances are such that we must have ready
cash. Ordinarily we do not believe in sales
but this is forced upon u.s. We must get the
cash and get it soon and in order to get cash
we are going to sell as much of the stock as
necessary to satisfy the creditors This sale
is legitimate, nothing is marked up and then
down again. We are shooting straight and
much of the stock is going below present
wholesale prices; in fact we are depending
entirely upon the prices to turn the stock. We
must lose much to save little.
