For days my store has beon crowded to capacity with people anxious to see their dollars grow. Ily competitors say: "Oh, let Bill Cunningham rave," but secretly they do the raving while Bill does the savingfor you. I still have on hand nice Christmas gifts for everybody. Let your dollar buy twice as much at my store as it will elsewhere. Your volume of trade for the past year has enabled me to sell at lower prices than any merchant in Western North Carolina. And I would be more than ungrateful did I not take this opportunity to thank each and every one. V A ( i
