It indicates, as nothing else can—that more and more people are leaning

toward fitness, taste and quality in their giving—it presages that the

number of men to become possessed of the perfectly natural inclination : to open certain gift boxes first—will be tremendously increased!

The store with its spacious quarters—and with its vastly expanded services—works smoothly under pressure—it meets the challenge of this new, almost fantastic, holiday record, comfortably, within the framework of its usual store hours. |

But even with our enlarged facilities, even if each of us had three hands— there comes a time, particularly on Saturdays, when it’s well to = stretch the store hours a bit—to keep service-from getting out of hand! The Store is open Saturday from 9 till 6—Come in—and bring the Family! You'll all enjoy the experience. |
