Only a master ..ugcian could have known all the needs of cn instruraent that would give such accurate tone reproduction. It was Forest Cheney, violinist, teacher, master musician, who put the acoustical pr’ iciples of those supreme musical instruments —the organ, the violin and the human voice—into The Cheney. He it was who gave The Cheney the tonal ver- satility of the organ, the musical fineness of the violin, and the flexibility of the trained voice, He it was who gave The Cheney that accuracy of reproduction that makes it the quality musical instrument—not just a mere phonograph. Any model of The Cheney Phonograph may be purchased in the Wanamaker Phonograph Salons, first floor, new building, on convenient deferred terms. 5 JOHN WANAMAKER f BROADWAY AT NINTH STREET + NEW YORE GITY 1920. Broadway at Ninth, New York We are Much Gratified with | the Results of Our Efforts the Past Two Short Busy Weeks doing something plainly and positively bene- ficial to our city and elsewhere by putting cash into the hands of people who took home with their purchases one-fifth of the estab- lished actual values of everything in our warehouses. They carried away or had sent home not only the merchandise of established value at usual and unchanged and untampered-with prices, but they had the dollars saved to count out into fathers’ and mothers’ hands. The Whole Country Seems to be Waking Up to work down some of the cost of living. All storekeepers appreciate the favor that their customers bestow upon them. Now that the great hardships of high prices-have been borne for so long, it seems only. fair that the distributing storekeepers should join together to cut off all unneces- sary expenses and cut down prices to no profits or to the smallest margin of profit for a time, and by every possible means to urge producers ot goods to take less than the com- mon war profits, when goods were scarcer than they are now. If only all the men will resume their former tasks and when claiming higher wages offer lo “er hours to add to produc- tion, we will all f-2i more cheerful. There are good signs of decisive progress in the past fertnight: and if all the critics would join in an orable attack against ad- vancing costs the great victory could be won. ast ( [feuseatS May 18, 1929 “90 Per Cent. Off -JOHN WANAMAKER Telephone Stuyvesant 4700 Store Hours 9 to 5: Everything” Is Still the Good News (With the exception of a few minor price-restricted articles and our separate catalog stocks) 22 From the very beginning there were some people who seemed to wonder if we meant what we said. It was all plain enough in black and white, and the goods were here with their re; off the charges, seem possible. ar, undisturbed markings, and salespeople taking 20 per cent. iving back $1 every time you paid $5—and still it did not Sut now that we have gone ahead doing it for two weeks, and are still at it, it has become an accepted thing. New And all at 20 per cent. off French-last Pumps We had in stock at $20 pair, 206 pairs of French last Theo ribbon-lacing pumps, in black and brown ooze calfskin, with French heels and heavy turned soles. We have just bought 240 pairs of the same pumps at a special price, which permits us to mark them $16; so we have reduced the price of 206 pairs in stock, and, Wednesday, the whole 446 pairs will be put on sale at $16 pair, deducting 20 per cent. from this brings Wednesday's price down to $12.80 pair. NOTE—Ooze calfskin looks exactly like new suede, but remains softer and wears longer than suede. First floor, Old Building. French Blouses Just out of the boxes are fine hand-made blouses of marquisette, batiste, voile and handkerchief linen —extremely lovely and distinguished by small and exquisite hand touches that mark them as Paris- made. Real filet and real Val. lace plays an impor- tant role on many of the voile blouses. $13.75 to $38—less twenty per cent. Second ftoor, Old ‘Building. 50 Mosoul Rugs. Mosouls are the most popular ot the smaller Persian rugs. Their colors are deep, dark, soft, rich, and warm—the sort one never ti es of seeing. 50, hearth sizes, just unbaled, will be on the Rug floor Wednesday at $85 each.’ From this price deduct 20 per cent. ($17) when you make your pick. ; ‘hird G. ery, New Bui'ding. A New Purchase Under Price! ... 032 Fine Suits for Men...

And, nzturally, they were bought But we're gled the opportunity came at this particular time; because, with 20 per cent. off, the price to you comes down to $38. The variety is good Finished and unfinished worsteds are always good for service; flannels in plain shades are excellent for summer; end the neat pin stripes have a clean-cut, business- like air that most men like. ‘ll.ey are single and double breested models some particularly for young men, with a few extremes of fashion in pockets and lapels; and an ample variety of the more conservative models for men who prefer them. We know that men will appreciate an opportunity that offers GOOD suits under price and then takes 20 per cent. MORE off besides. Ready on Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock in the Lower-Price Broadway Store for Men. The Down-Stairs Store —still offers everything at 20 per cent. off, except a very few articles that are restricted by the manufacturers. This applies to special sale lots, as well as to our regular lower-price merchandise. “*] have spent the entire day at Wanamaker’s Sale” Writes one of our women critics From restaurant to Down-Stairs Store the most impressive feature, next to the values, is the Patience ahd courtesy of the employees toward every class of customer. Christmas business and crowds seem small in comparison, yet I have never seen sal le observe such unfailing patience as during this sale. Among the sections | came in contact with, the Knitted Underwear, Hosiery, and Notions de- serve special mention. ,In these sections | saw numbers of situations which would have tried the patience of Job, but without exception the sales- people kept their equilibrium, soinetimes having to call on the aislesmen for ad. fey but a satis- factory result invariably followed for the cus- tomer. The restaurant was wonderfully handled. In these two weeks of sale, I have had four luncheons at Wanamaker’s, and the standard of food and service has becn kept up to top notch, so far as I have observed, and personally experienced with “smilingest;” cheeriest waitresses and heads, In the Waist, section, I found the nicest, most helpful saleswomen imaginable. I should like also to compliment the Corsets, Infants’ Wear and the Boys’ Shop, and Millinery. The service in Wanamaker’s Gowns and Suits —especiully Gowns—is erfectly lovely, and this stock deserves the most enthusiastic praise in choice- ness of models, I was beautifully handled in the Misses’ Section. And in the Negligees and French Underwear, the service could not have been better. I must not forget the elevator service, which perhaps was the most sorely tried of all. On two occasions I witnessed a slight loss of temper, but the provocation was so great I did not blame them. Another section deserving special mention for courtesy is the Down-Stairs Store. The Perfumery was another section where the . highest-class service prevailed. Camee Candies should be specially mentioned. Fur Storage is in very pleasant hands. Wanamaker's sale is the topic. of the day. If only the railroads and ships and trucks will keep on bringing new goods in fast enough then we can still keep up our stocks and prevent our assortments being broken, and continue to supply what is probably the most extraordinary demand that has ever been made on any store in the history of merchandising. Some of the best manufacturers are co-operat- ing with us splendidly, and the hope is brishter and brighter that there is-going to be a high pro- duction and a definite lowering pf prices in the near future. And all at 20 per cent. off Beaded Chiffon Gowns Some exquisitely fine and beautifully designed afternoon gowns have come into the Women’s Gown Salons, Sheer black, finely patterned with very small chalk white beads, in a design that re- sembles the finer of huge spider webs, in peach color, yellow or white. And some cool frocks of swiss and organdie in pale lovely colors, and of voile and gingham, $12.50 to $59.50! Twenty per cent. off. 110 Anatolian Mats 110 rich red, blve, ivory and rose-toned rugs just in, specially bought, will be $12.75 each today less than wholesale price of the same grade of rugs three months ego. The 20 per cent. to be deducted will bring them down to the very low price of $10. Third Gallery, New Bldg. Second floor, Old Building Upholstered Furniture Two of the newest decoretive ideas are em- bodied in two all-over-upholstered living room suites just received. One shows the use of a two- tone velours (black and henna)—a very striking effect, yet subdued enough to hold your liking. The other shows the use of velours and damask in combination. The two outer panels of the settee —arms, seats and back—are covered with’ two- tone blackggnd gold velours. The center panel is covered with a bright damask. Twenty per cent. off.
