Under his guidance, this section grew from a little ucorn to a good-sized oak. A short while ago he decided to go into the furniture manufacturing business. We regretted his action, but there was mnothing that we could do about it, so we accepted his resignation. Our new buyer is a man of wide experience. Our furniture business is a big one, and requires a big man to handle it. It is human nature for all of us to like our own children the best. This new buyer feels that there are certain things throughout our furniture stocks that he would rather clean out. We think that it is good business for us to accept, within reason, his recommendations. Hence $100,000 worth of some of our finest furniture has been tagged with clearance tickets. This vast amount of furniture takes in suites It includes chairs, tables, sofas, miscellaneous pieces of every description. And every piece has been marked at such ridiculously low prices that we expect to make short work of it all. for bed rooms, living rooms and dining rooms.
