These shoes look like ele-
phants have had them on.
They were dainty and
neat last fall but how a
few months has changed
them.
These ladies dresses were
found in a trunk (prob-
ably an elephant’s). They
are- a mixture of sizes,

.. These coats were real-
ly beautiful buys last fall.
However, a few didn’t
sell so we have shot the
price down real low.
Elephants run in herds
and so have these sweat-
ers. We thought they were
all gone but another herd
came charging from un-
der the counter.
Ladies
Know how to keep an
elephant from charging?
Take away his credit card
of course. We’ll let you
use your Deal’s charge
card on any of these
white elephant buys.

WHAT IS A
WHITE ELEPHANT?
Ladies
Feather
In department store retailing a white ele-
phant is merchandise that refuses to be
sold. Buyers goofs, double shipments pips
the fact that we found some of this during
inventory make them real white elephants.
Come look over this herd». you might find
something to your liking.
. . . These are
real white
elephants,
Looks like
elephants
slept jn them.
Wc found these panties
hiding in a corner waiting
for Tarzan to rescue
them. Play Tarzan for us
and take these home.
. . . These are not white
elephants but it looks
like elephants slept on
them. A little fluffing
will put them in shape
again.
