You now look at these various steps of development in a general way, and take themn as a matter of course. But how is the poor, down-trodden, patient consumer affected by these changes in his everyday walk of life? Or might we say in dollars and cents value? SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT Speaking personally, the firm of McMurtry & Co. Limited, Bowmanville, 'has made a special study of this subject during the past 7 months-more particularly as to the purchasing value of the dollar. So thorough have been our investigations that we are now in a position to issue1 a special announcement in the form of a challenge which willnot only interest but appeal to every man and woman in Durham, County who is called upon to buy the daily necessities for the home and family.

" Acting on this adage we've spared no pains or expense in visiting the manufacturers, wholesalers and jobbers of home and foreign mark- ets to see and also obtain first-hand information on conditions relative to goods we stock Wn the sev- eral departments of our large store. We realize now it was time well spent and money well invest- ed as we have saved our customers thousands'of dollars on their purchases in spring goods. HERESTHE CALNE So confident are we that wecan c ompe e with any of the large city stores'or mail order houses tha wemae tischalege: We woul as you in Justice to yourself to write to any of the big. j'nail-order houses, secure their samples-and prices and then come in and compare them with the goods we have to offer. We are quite willing to leave it with your own good judgment as to who offers the best values.' This challenge is not made in any boastful manner on our part, but it is just a, pinbjness proposition made in good faithi--and in which we are prepared to prove to you at your cn~ine Here's sthe point-before the war days the city stores and mail order houses had a certain ad- vantage over the town merchant. But as we said in our introductory reniarks "times have hanged."
