Original and Greatest Bargain Givers.
(THE HOUSE THAT GIVES YOU SERVICE)
We advise every one who can do so, to take advantage of this our greatest Sale of the year, commencing FRIDAY, JULY THE 5TH. Every article of
seasonable goods will be placed at your disposal at prices which will be a greatsaving to the lovers of economy. These are times when merchants with
large stocks need not make unusual price inducements in order to sell their goods, wholesalers and Jobbers will gladly take the merchandise off our
hands, and in many instances pay more than we ask our retail trade. We, however, are not unmindful of the existing conditions and prefer giving our
Bargains to those who have helped make our business the pride of all lovers of real bargains. Scarcity of merchandise is now the great consideration,
hard to get deliveries, hard to get shipments, slow transportation, etc. We are daily advised of the closing out of some important line, the Government
taking over this and that factory. To illustrate, during the last few days we are advised by three large Overall factories to send no more orders, the
Government having taken charge of the factories, now making suits for our boys in France. Luckily we had about fiften hundred pairs on hand. We
are goinr to make July like December when it comes to business this year, the unapproachable values will be snapped up, it will pay you to buy almost
any article, as you will find it cheaper now than you will be able to get it after this sale. We try and give no misleading advice, those who put off will
realize the truthfulness of this ad. when they go to buy later. Only a meagre idea of our wonderful offerings can be given here. COME AND SEE.

(Continued from page 2)
had received from a lieutenant in
France in which he likened the war to
a football team and how the lieu
tenant expressed his delight at how
the home folks were cheering the
home team by purchasing Liberty
bonds, War savings anu
stamps. Some cannot go, but these
can cheer the home team.
War Savin-rs and Thrift stamps are
worth more than land. They are safe,
for them you get a fair rate of inter-
, ,1 -.or, linilintf" t.hpitt.
In closing his address Dr. McDamei
quoted the following, which he had
s;id to several thousar'i soldiers just
before they sailed for France:
Here's to the sons of the sun-Kissed
South.
When they meet on the fields of
France.
May the spirit of Lee be with you all
As the men of the South advance.
! Here's to the sons of the wind-swept
North,
When they meet on the fields of
France.
Hay the spirit of Grant be with y-u
" all
As our men of the North advance
Here's to the blue and the grey, as
one,
When we meet on the fields of France.
May the spirit of God be with us all
As our men of the flag advance.
