BANKS TO CLOSt
The local banks will be closed
Friday and Saturday of this week
observing the Xmas holidays.
We are crushing out the profits on a large number of
Men’s and Boys’ Suits and Overcoats, that we have
only a fey of each style, or, perhaps only a few broken
sizes in a lot. This is simply an unheard of oppor
tunity to get GREAT CLOTHING VALUES right in
the midst of the season. For we are going to dispose
of them at once regardless of profit. They must GO.
