The aisles are not crowded, one may reach the bar- gain tables or par- ticular depar t- ments more easily, there is more room in the elevators, one may wander about without be- ing jostled and leisurely inspect||, the goods on dis- play before pur- chasing. The chill and darkness of the wet cutdors is quickly dis pelled on entering by the lights and the G & 11th Sts.
