WHITE wer a very tips and shoppers 35 inches B'way at 6th Av 34th to 35tia St. “Well, This Doesn’t Look Like ‘Hard Times!’ ” An Oft-Repeated Comment You Hear Among Throngs of MACY Shoppers. Financial flurries are gen erally supposed to have a bad effect on retail businesses. Folks either buy LESS or MAKE THEIR MONEY DO GREATER WORK. At such times this Macy business aiways shows its GREATEST GAINS, because this Macy strictly CASH system de- velops the FULLEST PURCHASING POWER of money. The increased business is apparent even to the casual visiter, whose astonishment at the size of the shopping crowds here finds expression in, “Well, this doesn’t look like ‘hard times!’ ” When money is “easy” it is apt to be spent with a free hand. Prices don’t count so much, Specialty shops, with their HIGHER PRICES for the SAME SORTS OF MERCHANDISE WE SELL, reap a harvest, maimy because they offer an air of quietness and freedom from the crowds that characterize this 80-department business. But in periods of depression, when prices DO count, that air of quietness is much LESS attractive than Macy prices—and the Macy business spurts accordingly. At ANY time money here has greater purchasing power than it has in any other store, because:— We sell for cash only; we give no discounts, pay no commissions, sanction no concerts, theatrical devices or schemes of any sort that add to the cost of collecting and distributing merchandise. We are STOREKEEPERS! Collecting and distributing merchandise along lines of least re- slstance—CASH lines—is the function of cur organization. That we “keep store” to the liking of a great army of people is evidenced by the throngs which inspire the remark:—“Well, this doesn’t look like ‘hard times!’ ” White Fabrics i« MERCERIZED CHIFFON MULL— a sheer, soft material with dots em- broidered in various sizes; suitable for waists, &c.; 27 inches wide; 35c. value, a yard . 2: MERCERIZED CHECK AND PLAID ’ A Men’s Pajamas and Robes lst Fl,, Bith St side, rear, MEN’ PAJAMAS, made in China, of fine quality Shantung silk, hand-finished, trimmed with frogs; all full sizes, $4.50 values; sale$3.74 MEN'S BLANKET ROBES, made of fine imported blankets, plain coiors, with jacquard figures; satin yoke piete. piped seams; Fi GRENADINE, in dainty openwork de- FSET) CET GUY, no.cn ppnnnesancnonnsaonsagonndonaagnns $1.98 Bena WGN laccieliects ea riinctiee wide; very desirable for waists, yok- Dressing Sacques and Petticoats | j#) ts fe: ss. sul: WOMEN'S DRESSING SACQU mide of dotted Swiss, collar trimmed with Val. lace insertion and edge; attached lace cuffs; tucked back.....89¢ LONG KIMONOS, made of figured lawn, tucked front and fancy bor. eras Seuihstsseurvintiancamamtgrecrerst: : >. 69¢ PETTIC made of black and whits check sateen, deep circular ruffle; bands of Black Sateen.....cscsescscesccscuessseseecueessens $1.28 | at Sparkling sold elsewhere at $10.00; our price ALL-IRON FRAME COUCH BEDS, wire spring, wool mattress and bolster, covered with cretonne; map be used as one double or two 2 CEDE ro sold elsewhere at $9.00; our oe ee aS empress SSID SSS salt sewers A eR) wren esc ES . $5.
