At the beginning of our fiscal year we issued orders Practically everything in the store is new merchan- p dise. It was bought on the lowered market. That is the way it is val- ued in our advertising. Exceptional Values in tments that comparative valuations ng must not be based on the pecak- prices that prevailed some months ago.
