Wednesday —The August Sale of FURS EVERY woman knows Furs are cheaper in these August Sales of Ayres’—every woman knows the reason —how the August Fur Sale has been built up into a tremendous institution each year because stores are willing to take smaller profits to produce greater sale-volume at a time when the Fur Department would ordinarily be quiet. What EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW is the story of selection that stands behind this great annual Ayres' event. The story of how our staff has worked for months, searching markets, choosing, picking, selecting the best of style, the best of pelts that the money can buy and buying in co-operation with larger stores to get better bargains. The story of how assortments have been built up to make this sale, our most successful from our viewpoint —that of increased sales—and from the customer’s viewpoint—that of greater satisfaction in style and savings. Buy Furs on Payments if Desired If one desires, furs can be charged on October bills, payable November 1; this keeps your saving for you, and gives you the garment when you will want to wear .it. Or one can take advantage of the layaway plan by paying a 25% deposit on the garment, and it will be kept in cold storage without charge until paid for. \ Save—Buy Furs in August
