. ~Y' ,? ' :'t v ' '&??;* * ** * " Every Night at 7:30 J Personnel of I The Camden j Furniture Co. J Arthur Smith in 1912 took over the Camden Furniture Company when it was quite a small business. Today it is the oldest and largest furniture store in Kershaw County. We believe that in addition to the large stock carried by this firm its greatest succes has been due to the pleasing personnel of the company. | Mr. Smith, the sole owner of the business, has always endeavored to employ only such help as would j meet the hearty approval of his patrons. The well- j known Clyde Baker, who has been with the firm longer than any other employee, has charge of the sale and j installation of the Servel Electrical Refrigerators and Mr. Baker's genial personality has played a big part in the success of the business. Next comes Mr. G. L. Parsons, our popular inside salesman. Mr. Parsons has numbers of cvistomers who always call for him. Next we secured the services or Mr. Theo R. Thomas. Mr. Thomas has charge of the sales of musical instruments. In this line the firm has made a marked stride due to the salesman in charge of this department. Mr. Paul Thomas, our youngest in years and youngest in service, has charge of the out-side installment M business and in this he is quite efficient. Mrs. W. H. Rast, Jr., is a most popular inside saleslady and very often leads the sales force. Mrs. Nellie Holland, our efficient bookkeeper, is always ready to give you your balance. Try her and see. u A Complete Stock of $50,000 Worth of High-Grade FURNITURE Awaits Your Inspection j Every night at 7:30 o'clock we begin our big auction j sale. The store is always crowded. Last night at } least twenty-five per cent of those who came were unable to get in for quite a while. We have this situation taken care of and we will promise not to turn anyone j away from now on. We have about fifty additional chairs arranged and ther eis one for you. I We have held numerous sales since our organization but none have given us as many satisfied customers as the present auction sale has. We have shipped furniture to all the surrounding towns and, in addition, we j ! have shipped to Charleston, S. C.; two suites and odd pieces to Florence, S. C.; also a nice shipment to Charlotte, N. C. It only goes to show that not only our regular customers are well pleased with the sale but also the trav- j eling public who is only passing our way cannot return | to their homes without a share of these never-before- j heard-of-bargains. 1 One man has expressed this as being the place where } your dollar stretches like a rubber band. Never be- | , fore has Camden witnessed a sale of this kind?where j cost mark is forgotten and the customers set the price. i | It is an opportunity that rarely ever comes to one in a j I life-time, but we are glad to offer our many customers j this modern method of reducing our large stock. H At each and every sale we give away, absolutely I free, several valuable prizes. These prizes are given ; to persons present whether they buy or not. The last night of the sale we will give away a grand prize which is your choice of several pieces of solid mahogany furniture which you may select from, now on display in our j show window. j Cel. F. K. Graham of Charlotte, N. C., has charge of j these sales and he is doing everything in his power to make it a big success for the customers of the Camden j Furniture Company. We are proud of our customers and it is our determination to make them proud of us ! through our service to them. B With a stock of $50,000.00 worth of modern furniture to select from, with no upset price, can you imagine a better opportunity for the new home builder. Every one can use an odd piece, if not an extra suite; j if so come. ' The remainder of the days of this sale will be given ; largely to high-priced room suites, livihg room fumi- i ture, bed room furniture, sun parlor suites, odd pieces, solid mahogany tables, high grade felt mattresses, Wilton rugs and in fact everything that will go to make i a home a better place to live. Come early and get front seats. Lots of fun, free valuable prizes and, last | but not least, goods at your own price. I mm w? ??
