LOOK OUT THERE

Santa Claus has been dumping sacks of goods in The Racket for the past month, and he smiles when he thinks how much labor our store saves him in distributing presents throughout Washtenaw County.

We are literally overflowing with Holiday Goods, and you can make your choice anytime you wish.

Bring in your children, they will very soon show you what they wish, and anything here is sure to fit your purse, for

Racket Prices Are Special Prices.

We would be glad to give you figures the same as we have been doing all summer, but owing to the nature of the goods it is impossible. We established a reputation for selling on a very small margin and we propose to jealously guard that reputation so long as we are solicitors for your trade, for it is the very life of our business.

Please don't wait until evening. You won't be so well satisfied to select in haste because of the evening jam, but come in the daytime. We will pack up and lay away your selections but expect a small payment to cover the risk of carrying the goods over. Pay what you please, but take our advice and buy early.

"A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year" to all our friends and patrons and as Rip Van Winkle says "May you live long and prosper."
