This issue of The Wingham Advance-
Times contains a special supplement whidh
will be of real interest to every newspaper
re.tier in the district. The advertising sec-
tion has been assembled for the express
purpose of letting the buying public know
that Wingham is a good place in which to

Just to prove the point, and to allow
shoppers to become better acquainted in the
local stores, the members of the Wingham
Business Association, whose advertisements
appear in the yellow pages of this issue, have
reduced their prices on many, many items.
Thursday, Friday and Saturday of this
week will provide you with an opportun-
ity—not just to save money in one store—
but to take advantage of bargains in every
one of the fifty-nine stores 'participating.
After you have carefully read the messages
in this paper you will be able to plan a real
shopping "spree' in Wingham this week
and be sure that you are saving dollars at
every store.
Don't fail to get your free tickets on the
draw which is being run in connection with
Dollar Days. Each of- the participating
stores has them for you—one ticket with
ench dollar you spend. Simply write in your
n-tme and address on the tickets and drop
them in the box which you will find in the
store. Winners of the prizes will be deter-
mined wh'en the tickets are drawn on Satur-
day evening, July 26.
There are three cash prizes, $25, $15
and $10, in addition to which )merchandise
