Wonderful Christmas furniture . . « all sorts > of high quality items at moderate prices. % All Purchases Will Be Delivered Before Christmas!

WOE IS THE LIFE OF AN AD WRITER AT CHRISTMAS TIME in a store like the Victor Furniture Company. We tried—

‘and tried—to pick the items for this ad. You know, a few choice items for last minute shoppers. But it wouldn't work.

There are TOO MANY choice items in this store. . . . . . .

for instance . . . on the first floor... a whole ‘section of miscellaneous things. . . TOWEL SETS FOR $3.95 . . . others

for $9.95 . . . shag and chenille throw rugs and bath sets. . . a 26 piece silverplate set that serves six for only $29.95

cast aluminum waterless cookware at $29.80 and the salesclerk assured us this is West Bend's finest quality. The

same section features oriental pattern throw rugs for $9.95 and SURE-FIT slip covers, knitted and cretonne.

We also saw automatic electric irons by several famous makers for $9.95. There are ice buckets, electric juicers, electric

heaters, hot plates, Cannon blankets, desk lamps with fluorescent bulbs and even toilet sets—all moderately priced.

AT THE

On the first floor we saw modern waterfall knee hole desks with chair for $39.50, There are other desks, genuine mahagony or walnut ones, with nine drawers at $54.50 The selection of tables is hard to describe and you have to see them to appreciate them. There is every kind of table imaginable and. also PAIRS and The prices run from as little as $3.95 up to $65.00. LAMPS are very moderately priced. . . the table lamps are plain tailored or fancy and can be © purchased singly or in pairs. There is a beautiful. FLOOR LAMP at $19.50

THE SALESPEOPLE TOLD US THAT YOU CAN PURCHASE ANYTHING YOU WANT.ON VERY CONVENIENT TERMS AND START " PAYING NEXT YEAR,

The, KITCHEN SECTION is really something. There are deluxe gas ranges of - the most modern design made by FLORENCE AND BEAUTY RANGE at $198.50. These come with or without divided tops and some have . glass windows in the oven doors. The new model KITCHEN SINKS look like something! They have porcelain tops, built-in drawers and bins, sprayer and a new type hinge that holds the doors open when you want them open and closed when vou want them that way. They sell for $149.50 and you can get bases, wall and floor cabinets to fit your kitchen. THERE'S ALSO THE BENDIX AUTOMATIC LAUNDRY, electric ranges and shelf freezers. We were told that there are a few more ARVIN DINETTE SETS at $59.95 FOR THE LUCKY FOLKS WHO COME EARLY.

VICTOR FEATURES LIVING ROOM SUITES by Madden and International and we saw more than we can possibly describe. _ LAWSON and DUNCAN PHYFE SOFAS can be had for $139.50 and there are two-piece living room suites in tapestry, velour and mohair priced from $99.50 to $395.00. There's every choice color you can think of and each

suite, reqardless of price. looks to be a VALUE. OCCASIONAL CHAIRS ARE PLENTIFUL AND

+ MODERATELY PRICED.

ON THE bedroom floor we saw them just bringing in a new mahagony bedroom suite in 18th century design. This suite had chest, vanity and full size bed and will sell for $149.50, we were told. Here is a most unusual value. There are also modern design bedroom suites with either twin or 8 full size beds selling for from $139.50 to $298.50 and one 18th century solid mahagony suite for $750.00. To go with these suites or in any bedroom there are. boudoir chairs in bright colors, priced from $19.50 up. We were surprised to see several famous makes of INNERSPRING MATTRESSES FOR IMMEDIATE DELIVERY. You can get matching box springs if you wish. In addition, we saw good looking Hollywood beds and SOFA BEDS at very moderate prices.

THE VICTOR HAS A FEW DINING ROOM SUITES TOO!

VICTOR SPECIALIZES IN THE TIPTON TILT-GLIDE LOUNGE CHAIR AND

OTTOMAN which sells for $59.95 to $85.00. The salesman told ys that they are recognized by experts to be the finest chairs of their kind on the market. They come in almost any color and cover that you could wish for.

WE ASKED ABOUT RUGS AND CARPETS and were told that they are scarce but that the Victor has a few all wool axminster 9x12 rugs and a limited quantity of all wool axminster BROADLOOM CARPET. The rugs sell for $64.95 and the carpet is $5.50 a square yard. That's not bad! :

THERE ARE SOME GENUINE TAYLOR TOTS AT $7.95!

We'd better stop: before this runs off the page. There's plenty more to tell about but no more space—you had better just come in and see for yourself that it's positively true—VICTOR HAS THE FURNITURE! | |
