dated Stores swing open FRIDAY MORNING, December 6th. THE BUYING PUBLIC OF CENTRAL TEXAS will have the
privilege of supplying the Season's needs at PRICES UNPARALELLED IN THE HISTORY OF BELL CO. RETAILING.
Words are inadquate to express imirtensity of this Great Sale and the Wonderful "Money-saving" possibilities it offers, THE FACT
THAT Wfc MUST RAISE $60,000.00 iri less than a month accounts for these unparalelled low prices. "We are caught with the goods"
"We must have $60,000.00 to prevent Financial Embarrassment"—So its up to you to take advantage of our situation and "save the profit"
that we would have made if conditiorls were normal. Remember you don't need the actual cash.—The New Money or your Check is just
'as good. Note the hundreds of prices quoted.here and bear in mind thousands of other prices just as low will greet your eyes the minute
