lead on Trades Day. Why? Because the
people have begun to realize that it is
here that they can get what they
w.«nt and much more economically
than anywhere else A concentrated
line of advertising by the live mer-
chants has taught the people that it
is here in Bay City and not Houlton,
nor the mail order houses not the out
of town concerns that offer the great-
est bargains They have learned that
not only Trades Day is bargain day
in Bay City but every day. however,
they know that on this day they can
get super bargains in practically every
store in the city.
Let's all make this Trades Day just
as good if not better than the one last

city. This day has become a regular
fair day for the county and it is here
that families from all over the county
and the adjoining counties come to
take advilntage of the wonderful bar-

city.
There is possibly no city m the
state that has attempted a similar day
for its community and has had greater
success with it than has Bay City.
Possibly there is no other method by
which the merchants of the city could
