In behalf of hungry husbands, I would like to suggest that the ladies hold their club meetings from 3 to 5 o'clock and that they serve no refreshments.

It does not seem long since we started in the Northeast corner of our present building with twelve pair of shoes, one dozen socks, two shirts, one necktie and three yards iof gingham. That was really begin j ning on a shoe string. After seven i years, we have added to that string i until now we feel that we have a | pretty good size cable. | Here is how we did it: The right J goods at the right time at the right prices, depositing money instead of making notes and not buying too many automobiles. Simple, isn't it? We always celebrate our birth day by putting on a big sale and ; marking the price down instead of up. We think we ought to be that generous one time a year at least.
