There's No Secret About
This Clear-Away of
Trimmed Millinery
Even though styles are fully established, new ideas will
lie constantly taking shape, and it's our policy to SHOW
THEM FIRST in Harrisburg.
But they will not materially affect the present running
styles, and hats that were worn on Easter day will be stylish
for Aveeks to come.
Our reasons for this sale right in the heart of the season
are (1) to make room for new models; (2) and to dispose of
present models before they become common or out of style.
