Here is news for you. Perhaps you don’t know that we have broken ground for an immense new business home at the corner just below us. We expect to have it ready for occupancy this fall. We're going to walk into that new store empty handed. Not a dollar's worth of our present stock will be carried there. It must all be sold before we move. To that end we have inaugurated this “RE- MOVAL SALE.” There's nothing that fur- nishes a home that we don’t sell—and nothing that we sell has escaped the reduc- tion.” If you want to see your money go further than it ever has before—look in on us now.
