\ THE SUNDAY STAR, JANUARY 16, 1921—PART 1L 1 LANSBURGH&DBROTHER Washington, D. C,, January 16, MONDAY STORE NEWS 420-30 Seventh St. NW. Going ‘“the Market One Better” in The Sales of January You read a lot these days about price =isa i -~ T e v 1o Y o . i N —————— e o - e NG adjustment. There's something to that. It’s a com-~ mendable ’thing’. But, to our way of thinking’, the store that simply reduces merchandise to what it can be replaced for isn't doing’ anything to brag‘ about. The Lansburgh store is doing two things now— (1) Reducing the merchandise it has on hand to levels MUCH lower than present worth. (2) Keeping alert to the special offerings the market affords— purchasing those lots that make possible prices that would tempt the customer these between-season days. We are frank in admitting that we realize that business must be done on a PRICE basis these days. And price has been keeping us busy in days that usually would have been a period of inactivity. the point of value-giving, the one we held just two weeks ago.
