The Leonard Graphic—Friday, Sept. 19,1952
IT STARTS AT 9 A. M. FRIDAY, SEPT. 19th In Leonard, Texas
■
That creeps upon you at various time swept the entire
contents from the store adjoining ours recently. While
our stock suffered no direct fire losses, yet our stock was
subjected io a severe smoke damage. Smoke literally
covered and engulfed our total store leaving in its wake
the mark of damage that called for an adjustment from
the insurance companies. The insurance companies came
and made adjustments for the losses inflicted by the fire
next door. Now in order to completely close out all dam-
aged goods we are inaugurating this colossal Smoke Dam-
age Sale. The price reductions are storewide, however,
and1 our entire stock is thrown into this MILLSTREAM
OF BARGAINS that beckons all—Calls the thrifty to
North Texas’ Greatest Smoke Damage Sale!

Once In A Blue Moon Opportunity
Right at the beginning of the Fall season comes this mighty explosion of bargains. Our
large stock is involved in this sale. Now we are merchants, NOT ANTIQUE COLLECTORS,
and have firmly made up our mind to clear this stock at any price as profit is not the object
of this sale. Make out your list now and plan to be at our store Friday at 9 a. m. when this
$35,000.00 stock goes on the altar of sacrifice at prices that will baffle the most skeptical.
