GRE ATf
at ABE POLLER’S
Still going on in full blast.
People are walking out with big bundles and with broad
smiles and a handsome present. I advesitsed last week with
a big circular and a two-page ad in The Progress, explaining
why I put on this great moveable sale,because 1 am forced to
move from my store and I have got no other location as yet.
This is a great opportunity for the Cairo and Grady County
people to buy their Fall and Winter supplies who have not
yet bought any. . There are a great many more people who
have not visited my store and seen the great reduction in pric
es that I marked down. It will pay them to come and! get their
supplies at my store and you will get a Handsome premium free.
YOURS TRULY,
