tile Section OF the Chamber OF Com
merce this morning, the following
statement was issued:
"The managing committee OF the

definitely eliminating current mis-
Understandings on the part OF some
OF the Wilmington merchants. as
we'll as a large portion OF the pur-
chasing public. in connection with
the seml-annual Dollar Day just
passed.
1.-THE impression had become cur
rent that due TO the inclement
weather Of Wednesday. which was
the official Dollar Day OF the Mer-
camille Section. our stores would
continue the Dollar Day on Satur-
day, by offering the same Dollar
Day specials which were offered on
Wednesday, In order to give the
purchasing public the opportunity OF
taking advantage OF these bargains,
which they were prevented from Sc
curing on Wednesday.
1T was the unanimous opinion OF
the committee that Il was due TO
both merchants and public that these
rumors should be cleared up def
nitely. and to that end the commit
tee decided to make a forml an
nouncement to the effect that there
would be no continuation OF the Of
fetal Dollar Day at this time. and
that the next official Dollar Day
would be observed at the regular
time. next August"
Although tomorrow will not be a
continuation OF official dollar Day"
some merchants are advertising to-
