HE Semi-Annual Clearance Sale is exactly that—a clearance sale. No buyer who ever lived but made some miscaleulation in his buying. Even in purchasing a popular suite, it is possible to order too many china cabinets, or toosmany dressers and it is always the case that when a suite is discontinued by the manufacturers, there are on hand incomplete suites. These incomplete suites—eight piece dining room suite, two piece living room suites, odd sofas, odd serv- ers, odd dressers—we sell during our Semi-Annual Clerance Sale at very low prices. Now the fact that a suite is discontinued and only a part of it is left doesn’t mean that it is in any way undesirable. Perhaps the pieces that are left are all the pieces that you could possibly use in your room. But from the point of view of selling, it is awkward to have these things on hand that we cannot match or duplicate. Besides these things we include every piece or suite of furniture that has been here six months. Inaugurated many years ago, these Semi-Annual Clearance Sales have increased in importance and in volume each year and have saved our customers many dollars. Naturally we have made plansfor and ex- pect that this year’s sale will not only be the greatest in volume but the greatest in saving for prospective buyers. The prices quoted here are cash, but even if you cannot pay all cash, you can have the benefit of these prices by paying us only sufficient add:tional to cover the cost of carrying the account. This means a year or more in which to pay and you can pay us monthly. Strikingly New Sun Room Groups $98 None too early to plan your porch furnishings for Spring. Or if you plan to refurnish the sun room now, use this strikingly new suite. It is finished in a choice of waterproof colors with upholstery of waterproof chintz. Made of genuine reed.
