CAN BUSINESS AND PLEASURE BE COMBINED ?
TO THIS QUESTION WE ANSWER "YES!"
And on Seaboard Celebration Day we will
give a practical demonstration of this fact.
All visitors to Sumter will receive a Cordial Welcome at our store, and we are quite
sure all will realize not a little pleasure in seeing the many beautiful lines which will be
on display.
In our Coat and Suit Department specially low prices will be made to visitors, and al?
though we will be very busy as usual, we anticipate a mutual pleasure in greeting
friends.
