A new record!
(on cards)
Library Bureau's latest additions to the many kinds
of card, forms arc the stock record cards for phonograph
dealers. (Catalog numbers 30-5551 and 30-5552.)
They show sales by the day and month. They enable
a dealer to tell instantly whether a record is in stock
without going to the bins. Inventory can be taken, as
one dealer says, "in about two hours and a half, whereas
formerly it took as long as five days, with three sets of
people, and even then was not taken correctly."
Library Bureau carries cards in stock for stock
records, mailing lists, credit lists, follow-up records,
card ledgers, sales records, etc. for every conceivable
kind of business.
L. B. cards increase the usefulness of any card record.
They are uniform in weight, quality and size.
Tell us your requirements and we will bend
sample cards.

When you are making
comparisons of Furni

' that the Strawbridge &

remember that this is ac
counted for mainly by
the fact that we HAD
ALREADY REDUCED
our entire stock from
the 1920 prices; and the
price from Avhich you
take off the 331-3 per

learned that in some in

good old 1920 price

stores cling so fondly
are about 20 per cent.

our regular tickets.

our great warehouse at
Ninth and Poplar streets
are being drawn from
very heavily every day
'every day's selling far
exceeding that of last
February but we shall
have ample supplies for
discriminating choice for
days and weeks to come.
It is only fair to say,
however, that there are
many single pieces and

have no duplicate ware

when sold, cannot be du
