"MIDâ€"WINTER VALUE DAYS," the final planned event of the Reâ€" tail committee of the Highland Park Chamber of Commerce, will be held from January 16 to January 26, inâ€" clusive. This will conclude the seâ€" ries of events scheduled on the Retail Committee Ends 1940 Program, January 16â€"26 "FORWARD IN FORTY" program. The five previous events schedâ€" uled by the Chamber of Commerce were most successful, and the Reâ€" tail Committee is deeply grateful to the merchants of Highland Park and Ravinia for their coâ€"operation in making the â€"program so great a success. The "Midâ€"Winter Value Days" are timed so as to permit every line of retailing to participate. Merchants throughout the city have just reported one of the most successful holiday seasons in h{iny years. They attribute their inâ€" creased sales volume, largely to the interest manifest by the local buyâ€" ing public in their local stores, through this promotional sales proâ€" gram. % ; Loop department stores schedule promotional sales events for nearly every day of the year. In fact they have become so numerous they pracâ€" tically overlap each other, erasing their true value. _ Highland â€" Park ~merchants are more anxious to serve the people of their community throughout the year. Instead of forcing numerous promotional events upon their paâ€" trons, they have so timed their proâ€" gram that only seasonal events are scheduled, with value returns. Highland Park business men do not attempt to stock their shelves with inferior merchandise, sacriâ€" ficing quality for profit. "Stupenâ€" dous bargains" are not advertised, patronage is solicited only through value offers. x Midâ€"Winter Value Days will open Thursday, January 16, and will conâ€" tinue through Saturday, January 25. The Retail Committee is headed by Paul C.~ Olson, chairman, Fred Fell, Oscar L. Lundgren, F. J. Meâ€" Donough, Harry Roberts and J. L. Wehrheim.
