SOME HAPPENINGS IN 1914
Great Industrial Improvement Expected
In 1913
'Hie acute depression in the steel
bdsines-s of the country was reflected
in the borough during 1914 in the 1
shape of a forty per cent, capacity of
operation of the big plant of the Penn
sylvania Steel Compenv located here.
Had it not been for the large sums of j
money spent by this company in mod- !
eruiziug its local plant, this depression j
would have been felt more keenly than 1
i< »a?. with every prospect of better
«on lit 10ns coming early in the new
year.
The program of building operations
announced last March by the local
company has been carried out to the
letter. The chain of up-to-date mills, j
erected in the West End extension is
Hearing completion and the erection of 1
the new million-dollar blest furnace has
been commenced.
The year iust passed has seen over
4 O.C>OO square yards of streets paved
by the borough", which is a larger
amount of paViivg than was recorded in
any other previous year. Building
operations in the borough, outside that
of the steel company, is below tine
average.
The handsome new Hygienic school
building, commenced last April, has j
been completed and is now in use. I

HARRISBURG STAR-INDEPENDENT, FRIDAY EVENING. JANUARY 1, 1915.
JANUARY REDUCTIONS
At .T .satatssasmttm
SUITS AND OVERCOATS
OF OUR ENTIRE STOCK !
We appreciate that ever-increasing measure of
j public confidence in this Live Store which has helped us ]
| make a new high record in volume of business for this year. We never abuse
| that confidence through make=believe sales or something-for-nothing offerings.
But at the season's end we make a clean sweep of every Suit and Overcoat in
the store at legitimate price reductions, for we never carry goods over from
one season to another.
Having done a straight business with straight mer- J
Ichandise at straight prices every day of every week, these January 1
reductions on all clothing on hand involves not the slightest question or doubt as I
to the quality of the merchandise nor the exact amount of real money you can now 1
save. II
This DOUTRICH event has nothing in common |
with other so-called reduction sales. It is not the result of t
* bad merchandising judgment or anybody's mistake. It is simply a stroke of
good business—a method'of keeping the pledge we have made to Harrisburg
people, and we say it sincerely and in all earnestness; profit is a secondary
consideration with us now. For what we lose in money, we more than make
up in the measure of good will which such events as this have won for the f
Live Store.
Reductions Begin To-morrow, January 2nd. j
