EVERY WEEK we write a Ietter to the reading public telling
about our goods and prices, and at various tenses offer special
bargains which some readers are very quick to take advantage of
This was especially noticeable regarding our great sale during
the, past two' weeks. Many people' coming late, after perhaps
bearing frotn• their neighbors about our sale, sAid 64 Why did. .
not let us know of those big bargains you were offering in Boys
Sults, Boosts and Shoes, Ladies' Coats and Laress Good rr qVe
asked them: " bid you read our "ads." in The Sentinel?" And
the answer in many cases was : "We do -not take The Sentinel,
or we did not read your ads." To these we can only. say, that
you missed a big money -saving opportunity,' y g pp y, as can be detested
by hundreds who saved money by coming early and often. We
mighty also add, t .at those who do not, take The Sentinel could`
have saved enough to pay their' subscription for a number of'years
if they had seen our ads. and taken advantage of the bi bargains
we offered,.
