Then we hope that our anniversary sale, too, will mean more to Wash- ington than an ordinary opportunity to save money on merchandise. We are more grateful, however, than merely to ask for congrat- uvlations. Be sure to read about the sales in the eoening papers tomorrow Although we are so humanly ‘vain as to hope that regardless of effort on our part, our birthday might be noticed, yet we are also so humanly proud as to have worked hard to prepare a real exhibition of our standing «in the market,” " to express appreciation for our standing in Washington. All through our store, Seventh street, Eighth, E, top floor to Base- ‘ment store, there are clothes, home furnishings, things that you would want to buy here at this season anyway, Fri- day, at very low prices. We assure you more than senti- mental enjoyment if you participate in our 66th Anniversary. R EEEE
