B. H. RIDDLEBERGER'S SALE
BREAKS ALL RECORDS.

The advertising of B. H. Riddle
berger's sale was distributed
throughout the county and proves
that the people appreciate good
truthful advertising backed up by
dependable merchandise such as Mr..
Riddleberger specializes. The open
ing day June "a, he enjoyed the
great pleasure of. having dozens of
good big cash buyers at the door of
the store before the appointed time
There were scores of people who had
not visited this town for years and
others who had never been here be-
fore and all patronized this store
and purchased a large amount of
their summer supply of merchandise
through the wonderful saving that
this sale afforded. From the time
the store opened until the close
every day since the sale started they
have been crowded with bargain
hunters, who have come from miles
around to take advantage of the
bargains offered. 1t is an undeni-
able fact that consumers are alive to
the money saving possibilities and
that certainly evidenced by the
crowds in our city every day. They
could not see how Mr.. Riddleberger
could offer such ridiculously low
prices. 1t is the customers who are
benefited. A lot of people who pur-
chased goods at this sale realized
that this sale was a real sale with
offerings seldom placed before the
people. Mr.. A. E. Maddox, expert
sales adjuster in charge, is deter
mined to push out this stock re-
CARELESS of profits to Mr.. Riddleber-
ger. A visit will convince the most
skeptical that this is bona-fide sale
conducted on plan to sell goods at
a saving never before seen in
Charles Town. This unusual bar
gain treat will come to a close on
July LIST. The closing days promise
some extreme revelations in price
wrecking. $4,000 in merchandise
coupons will be thrown from top of
building on Saturday, July l at 2 D.
m. See ad in this issue of paper.

Joe Colletti, Poughkeepsie dy-
weight wonder who 10 managed by
Ed Mooney Poulsen of this city,
outpointed Fred Denscio in the
twelve round main event at the At
'lantic City boxing club last night
The New York state battler beat his
Philippine opponent all the way ana
in the twelfth session, Denscio was
saved by the bell.
Denscio was a great ~favorire and
he received q big ovation when ne
was introduced at the start Of the
fight. His popularity was entirely
due to the fact that he recently
scored a victory over Young Morris,
a popular Philadelphia boy.
Colletti went after mis- opponent
at the opening gong. but the manner
in which Denscio took punishment,
gave the Poughkeepsie battler ad-
vance information not to use UP all
he had in the opening rounds. Col
letti sent his opponent down for .
count in the sixth round after O
ing a clear victory on points in The
previous rounds. Denscio was some
what fresh coming out for the sew
enth, but he could do nothing with
Colletti who was working In ma
chine-like fashion.
No knockdowns were scored until
the twelfth session when Denscio
again went to the canvas and the
re10ee had counted seven when the
final bell rang. Colletti received a
big hand when he left the ring and
Manager Poulsen expects to book his
battler up for another tight at the
seashore club IN the nea future.
