We are pleased to admit, howfver, that even with the new lighting effects, new display and counter cases, air-conditioning and pleasin g color combinations, the 28 year merchandising policy, as laid down by Mr. J. C. Ward, is still the same-- ' : "Quality Merchandise at Popular Prices" and i Each Sale Satisfactory or Money Cheerfully Refunded! n Flowers will fade, and a cup of tea is only enjoyment for such a short period that Ward's felt they would like to cele- brate the milestone they are now passing with something of a more lasting nature. For this purpose we have decided to give merchandise away FREE to customers whose names are drawn from the big drum. 32 customers will have extra reason to remember our happy event and thousands of others too, as the counters will be stocked extra special with many seasonable offerings and Special Opening Week items for our many friends, old and new. The 32 beautiful and lasting prizes are chosen with care from Ward's large selection of quality merchandise and will be valued highly for their beauty and quality, as well as their monetary value. : LINENS & SHEETINGS -- Wabasso Sheets A re feature stem for open Our Opening Week Will Be Climaxed p bet sie $1x06. hemstiehed.

To The Citizens of Oshawa and Vicinity: I wish to express my thanks to the s and friends of Ward's who have so smilingly and cheerfully shopped amid the upset and noisy conditions the store has passed through during the last three months, It has been difficult for the staff to serve the public, as they would wish to, due to the never ending changes and noises going on daily during this transformation, but I am sure you will excuse any inconveni- ence incurred with the present result--an ultra-modern dry goods store. I wish also to thank publicly the staff who have worked well under very trying conditions. The designers, contractors and sub-contractors are also to be highly complimented on a good job and well done, a job we all may be proud of. 9. O. Ward bed size 81x96--hemstitched.
