Yesterday was a Great Day.
The bankers say that yesterday was
a great day with them, so far as de
posits are. concerned. Their deposit
accounts showed that Saturday was
a great day for business in this city.
The banks were closed that day so
no deposits were made until yester
day. The result Is that the sales for
both days were deposited that day.
je of the bankers said yesterday
evening: "It was the best day we
have had since last November. Even
Christinas and the first of January,
always big days, did not come
up to yesterday. You know the first
of November is usually the biggest
day of the year with bankers, due to
the fact that so many notea are paid
at this time. Yesterday was the
best day Valdosta has seen since last
November so far as bank deposits are
concerned."
The large deposits were due to the
fact that many of the Valdosta merch
ants have put on clearance sales and
prices have brought scores of out of
prices htve brought scores of out of
town shoppers who have raved con
siderably over tho bargains that
were being offered.
The sales here in all line* will con
tinue for a week more and It is very
likely that hundreds of people In the
nearby towns will take advantage of
them. Valdosta has not seen anything
like It In a long time.
