FROm TH§ sunny comer <[JSusan is down with the measles this week, so tko Chief gets his chance for a little comeback, and the snapshots will tell the story. <3> <S> fIA cable for Mrs. Tong this week acted like a tonic. It told that her husband [ was well and had received promotion. | Our congratulations to Major Tong and best wishes to his charming wife. <s> «$> ♦ I flThe P.D.C. made the biggest deal of its history, when it bought tho stocks of Cody’s Cash Drapery, Ltd., Mas* terton. This was the deal that Susan has been nosey about tho last fortnight. Eather ironical that I have to announce it myself after all. <§> «S> <s> was a really big cash deal and the bargains aro just marvellous. Tomorrow (Tuesday), we are putting out the first batch of Showroom and Millinery plums. Millinery at 2/6; Frocks at 9/1 lj Coats at *l9/6. See for yourself. <§><s><s> J[At the meeting of tho Board of Directors last week complimentary reference was made to the management and staff at the splendid result of the year’s trading. Thanks are also due to our thousands of regular customers. <s>•s> <s> of the Cody Stock deal, One of the biggest bargains of tho deal was the great stock of mattresses and down quilts. These are extraordinary valuo and must be seen to be believed. flMr. Young is very proud of his stocks >f cotton piece goods, and the girls of the pattern service are going fiat out with their cutting-out and semi-fit-ting, as well as the really remarkable Model-U. <g> «$> flThe latest victim of the measle germ is “Waka” our popular lift girl, and talking of tho lift wo want to apologise to our customers for the inconvenience caused through the lift being out of action so often last week. The new brakes are taking a lot of adjusting. JfMuch favourable comment has passed about the design of the backgrounds of our Spring windows. Lorna’s art work is really good, and the topical Services motif gives added interest and pleasing effect. The window staff are to be commended for their good work. <S> <£ flSusan will have to look to her laurels for now that I’ve got the knack of this Snapshot idea, I might want to start a column of my own. But just for a final reminder, look for the Cody’s Stock Bargains to-morrow. <s> 6> «$> Premier Drapery Co. Ltd. “The Sunny Corner” PALMERSTON NORTH
