Worth Of Things
For Spring
We could not have invested that much money
in anything that would be more striking to the
eye than the fine garments we have selected
and assembled for Spring showing. We like
to be modest, but \ve believe you too will say
we have the most gorgeous array of Spring
fashions you have ever seen at McNeely's. It
was our faith that tm: pretty things We now
have on display, would justify this extrava
gant purchase, because as tedious as it may
seem, every garment was selected in the in
terest of our patrons individually. Treat your
self to a visit to Shelby’s Fashion Showland
for Women—McNeely's. Even the price tags
on these hew fine garments have more econ
omy appeal than you had anticipated.
HERE IS A DRESS
LIKE THOSE
WE WILL SELL THE LAST THREE
DAYS OF THIS WEEK
For $5.00
A brand new shipment \vc had bought for last
week’s event but arrived too late to be includ
ed in the sale. Frocks of lovely spiking shades
in flat crepes and silk . . . in every style that
you want! 1 1 to 4$.
On Sal© At $5 Beginning Tomorrow!
