The Penny Comes
Into Its Own
BY JAxoN

The penny has of late reached a
pretty lowly status when it wouldn't
even carry little light thing like
postcard in one of Uncle Sam's
mailbags.,
However, all those folks who read
their Life. Look, Companion, and
other popular magazines this week
end found out that the penny is
worth dollars in some cases.
Sounds pretty impossible / know,
but maybe you didn't read any
further, although with news like
that / don't see how you could
help but investigate.
All this concerns the National ad-
vertising in the aforesaid Maga.
zines about the one cent sale, Ma.
tionwide, in all Rexall stores. With
every item bought at the regular
price, a penny more win buy its
duplicate.
Rexall Pharmacies are famous
for these yearly events and this
year is no exception. All over the
country the week of October 13 to
20 is the week when the penny
reigns supreme. Our own sale win
start at Gardner's Rexall Pharma-
cy on Wednesday, October Is and
will continue the rest of the week.

at New Orleans and at Tampa"
Warren said, sand / can person

1t was plain to every fair-minded
person present that the Stevenson

Warren, a supporter of Steven

tinued:
1.-THE remarkable thing about
Gov. Stevenson's triumphant visits
to Tampa and Miami was that he
drew such tremendous crowds.
"The 5000 persons who heard
him in Tampa actually exceeded
those who came out to see what
his more publicized opponent
looked like"

at $500, the same size as that
