WHEN the Furniture in the February Sale is sold and delivered, and the figures summed up, there will be recorded a net loss to this Store. But it is our policy to make ours the most attractive Furniture Sale in Philadelphia, although we have not always succeeded in making our values SO FAR SUPERIOR to others as we have done in this February Sale. Our entire stock is reduced, the greater part one-third and some lots one-half. This is the SEC OND REDUCTION. Everything was reduced late in 1920 reductions of not less than 10 per cent. These savings were shown on green tickets at tached with the regular price-tickets. At inventory, January 1st, new price-tickets were placed on the entire stock, thus establishing the REDUCED PRICES as the new lower regular prices. But here and there January Specials were created at extra January reductions. In these few instances, of course, the regular ticket with the first re'duced price was attached for February, from which the customer DEDUCTS ONE-THIRD at the time of purchase. The important point is this: Strawbridge & Clothier guarantee that two reductions have been made first, a reduction of at least 10 per cent., establishing the new low prices; then a further re duction of at least ',Yi l-.' per cent, for February. Figure it out for yourself a total reduction of forty per cent, from the regular 1920 prices. This applies to our entire stock excepting lots at a still greater reduction. And what a splendidly diversified and well se lected stock of Furuiture for critical customers!
