You can’t guess how much Bill and I have looked forward to to day!,—especially because of your calls and comments. “Grands”, we think, should have a day all-their-own, TWELVE DAYS, in fact, the first two weeks in August,—and the dozens of parents who’ve told us, ‘Do try to persuade Mother to visit you;’, are proof enough that we are not alone in believing that THESE are the portraits most deeply appreciated and highly valued. Because a MINIATURE, hand- painted entirely naturally and beautifully, seems to us PER FECT for YOU,—and because all the days August 2nd through 14 are especially yours, — we couldn’t imagine a more wonder ful ,time to have a VERY SPEC IAL PRICE,—just for grand mothers;, — for these gracious lovely portraits that are, to our minds, the finest in photograph ic portraiture. So . .. the same careful exquis ite workmanship given our regu lar-priced miniatures is yours for LESS THAN ONE-HALF, these two-weeks-for-“grands”,— when you may have THREE miniatures for only twenty-nine ninety-five! Should you need more than three, for other lucky grand-tots,—best-of-all, — addi tional miniatures are only SEV EN DOLLARS EACH,—and in another of the thousands-of- ways which you have shown your tnoughtfulness and love through the years, you give a life-time of pleasure to those closest and dearest to your heart. We promise your order in just- plenty-of-time to wrap and tie and tuck away, to delight a fa vored grandsonson - or-daughter on Christmas morning,—and we hope that you’ll begin planning now to visit us during those two SPECIAL WEEKS. You may wish to write us a card, or just call 747, to give us the most con venient hour for making your sitting,—and we’re all set; Bill and I will look forward VERY much to _ Seeing you, ARP Bible Class With Mrs. Tribble The -Ladies Bible class of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian church met on Monday evening at the home of Mrs. W.
