The Wanamaker'
Store Is Closed This
Saturday Holiday
There Is a City on the
Other Side of the Ocean
where ages ago Charles the
Emperor and the Duke of Saxony
both contributed to the structure
hereof.
It was called -Mine and Thineto
show the joint interest both had in 0
the place. In course of time the
common talk pronounced the city
name Minden,.as-it is to this day.
This great property, built
specially and substantially for
Philadelphia, filled with new and
ever fresh merchandise and its
conveniences for the public, could
only be what it is in its safeties and
hospitalities by the good friendship
and mutual appreciations between
UwnerS; daily workers and the
patrons of an ever-improving
business.
The incident of the far-off little
town by the River Weser and its
quaint name, Mine and Thine,
seems to fit perfectly this big
village of Wanamaker Square.
