The " Dusiness’ Center ot Norwich A Merry Christmas To You All ON THIS GREATEST OF ALL CHRISTMAS DAYS MAY PEACE ON EARTH, GOOD WILL TO MEN BE ESTABLISHED FOREVER PEACE ON EARTH- GOOD WILL TOWARD MEN As we approach the end of a successful year we have reason to congratulate not only ourselves, but also our many customers. We realize there could be no success for ourselves which was not a corresponding one for them. There could be no good fortune for us without equal prosperity for them. Fair and careful treatment, a careful study of the de- mands of our customers have enabled us to close the most prosperous year of our existence and we wish to extend to all the compliments of the season. THE END IS NOT YET HERE. In spite of our increased sales we find ourselves over- crowded with a stock of Housefurnishings that is better than gold dollars. But we must reduce our stock before taking inventory. To achieve this end we have decided to offer you our surplus stock at less than factory price or replacement value.
