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, ABE POLLER, Cairo, Georgia.
