save money—if you

want to buy seasonable, standard quality footwear for men, women, big boys and girls, cheaper than you've ever bought before, here's your opportunity, and one you seldom see like it. The present freight embargo has done more to disrupt business than anything else we kno$v of. Merchants everywhere were hard hit —delays in receiving shipments were enormous. Now what's the outcome? We simply must reduce stock to a low level. We are receiving cases and cases of footwear that are four weeks or more overdue. We'll have to forget about profits and costs—price slashing is now the order of things. Here's a good thing, but you'll have to respond quick, for several pairs at a time will surely be bought at these present day unheard of low prices.
