REDUCTIONS
A REAL TRIUMPH
OF course, we expected the
announcement of our January reduction
to bring business but scarcely the great
volume of the past week. Perhaps it can be ac
counted for by the fact that more men than
usual have postponed buying this year until
now. Whatever the reason, we're glad to rec
ord our appreciation and to renew our conten
tion that this is beyond question the biggest / ...,
value-giving event in town.
