No Pause In, Business While < New Lighting System Is Being Installed

There'll be heaps of noise around the -ePorter Clothing company on First ave nue Monday and the front of the store, even including the big display windows, will be torn up.
 .t But business will go on as usual. .,. Henry J. Porter, Jr., has tackled up } sign in front reading: Don't mind little noise; we are wide open for business" E The torn up situation is due, of ~i course, to the remodeling and expan- sion of the big store, which has been !. in full swing for days.

Porter agreed, that the display windows were temp orarily disabled, making it necessary to hide all those new shoes and hats and suits and things
 But the new show windows will be bigger and better than ever, says Mr. Foster. The contractors have orders to put in the best that money can buy.
 Y The fixtures for the three stories l. of the store are arriving daily. They { says they will help to make good his ,. promise:
 New Fixtures
 Birmingham is to have the finest mems store in the south. Soon they can, come here, stand on a marble floor and buy merchandise of recog- nized, standard makes at prices no higher-nor even as high, as they would have to pay for non-standard goods.''
 Up, to, Saturday 16 styles of shoes had arrived in the new stock-beau- ties, all of them.
 Another feature of the new store is. to be an ultra-modern lighting sys- tenn which was worked out for the firm by the Westinghouse Electric cor poration and the Edison cmopauy. It ] is to be so arranged that customers no longer will have to walk to the front door on dark day to tell the color of a suit or pair of hose they are trying to inspect.
 You ssee," Mir. Porter smiled. i've have nothing to conceal here and are going to- turn the light on everything. The workmen are pushing forward just as hard as they can and we hope very soon to welcome our customers and the general public into our handsome new quarters.s'
