Were kept busy landing goods to the Econ-'
omy last week. At least it would seem so if
you had seen our receiving and stock clerks
Kepi Hustling
To get their several departments into
shape. Such jamming and slamming! Ham
mers and chisels were playing lively tunas
on the back of Bedroom Suits and Side
boards and other articles.
WOW.
We aro ready for you. A better or larger
stock never was presented for your inspec
tion. Then there is our price the Econo
my's price that means a lower, price than
any other. Another consideration is "Econ
omy's Liberal Wait-a-While Paying Sys
tem." '
