It was bought so that it can be sold at less than the cost of materials alone, and make a little money for the new own- ers. The public make most. Only the previous owners lose. Everything is marked at half price and two-thirds. Children’s suits are going for a song. The new owners will discon- tinue that department.

Shoes, hats and furnishings are all offered at about half price. The new owners will clean it all out and begin with a new and up-to-date stock. Better get in line.
