AN OPEN LETTER , Cairo, Ga., January Sth, 1917 To Th« Public:— I take this method of advising the public and my custdmere*that I have decided to retire from the mercantile business, and. propose to close out hiy .entire stock of merchandise at actual cost—nothing held back. This is a bona-fide closing out sale ancl I do-not propose to get out any flashy circulars containing leaders to induce you to come to my stove, but 1 respectfully ask you to come and price the goods for yourself and be convinced that you can save several dollars on your spring and summer supply of goods. A very large percentage of my goods were bought before the ad vance and I do not propose to mark the goods up to’a price to represent what they would cost me today. • 1 This is an opportunity which you cannot afford to miss, and you ahoujd come at once before the best goods are gone.- * Thanking my customers and the public in general for the liberal patronage accorded me for the many years I have been in the mercantile business, and trusting that you will avail yourself of this the best opportu nity- of the season, I beg to remain, Yours very truly.
