Your Last Chance to

NEW DEAL
WE DO oyR PMrr
The Leader’s Bargain Feast
We are offering you what will probably be the
last chance you will ever have to buy fine mer-
ckandise at the lowest prices this country-Kait
ever known. The leader will stage a New Deal
Clearance, featuring values that would be im-
—possible if, we had to pay today’s prices for^ttef
merchandise we are placing on sale. Our advice
i^to buy as you havejnever bought before._You
will make a good investment if you buy hoiw few
next season's wear.
* \
This New Deal Clearance continues through
the month of August. Let us repeat that this wUl
probably be the last time jrou will ever have ah
opportunity to buy strictly high grade, season-
merchandise at such low prices. America
Mie believe, definitely and finally abolished
h g hours and low wagei^ which means ^t
1< r prices can never again return.
