Five Mere Days te Save Meney
in This Great Rebuilding Sale
I This announcement will redouble the number of our customers. The last week in all
Van Sciver Sale Events is always greatest in the volume of business because of the additional
advantages. And we are determined that this Sale will prove no exception te the rule. The
great reductions, the wonderful values, the seemingly endless array of Suites and Pieces make
possible selections that have no counterpart anywhere with everything marked at savings
that we believe are without parallel.
fl The unprecedented buying during this Sale of Furniture has relieved much of the over
crowded condition that handicapped us in our rebuilding work. The four-acre addition te our
Great Factory-Stere, which is going up en the site of seven of our old buildings, crowded us
everywhere. t This week's selling will help te clear the worst of the congestion. We have already
seen te this in the great values that we are offering.
9 As we leek back ever the events of our history, we can point te this as one of the most unusual
and advantageous Sales we ever announced te our customers and the public. But it is moving
toward its end. Briefly, we say, make the most of it.
