Fourteen years ago we wrote our first Sale advertisement for the "Post." Our little slogan 'way back in 1924, while . 11 the Maoris were still prowling about the wilds of Miramar, was: "Every Article Reduced." We had it made into a |l flag and, like Captain Cook, we nailed our colours to the mast; Every Sale we drive a nail (another nail) into our >. . .. , f| mast, and you and your friends and relatives seem to believe us, because every Sale gets bigger and better—as Dewey • II or Coue said in 1886: "Bigger and better in every way, Bigger and better every May" Of course, it really ought to ill be "June," but "June" won't rhyme with "way," and as we're clothiers and not poets we can't do any better with the ; 111 poem, but we'll live up to our motto, "Every Article Reduced," even if we do lose money on every transaction! With 11 these few remarks (at a shilling a word) we now and hereby invite you to our Bargain Banquet. |l "EVERY ARTICLE REDUCED" I Sale Opens TOMORROW I | "We Write Our First Sale Advertisement."
