The big advertisement of the
W. N. Rucker's store in Thursday's
Transcript attracted a great deal of
attention and much favorable com-
ment. It was artistically displayed,
and told the story of the most ex-'
cellent bargains in a logical, straight-1
from-the-shoulder manner. That it
brought results was evidenced by
the tremendous crowds that crowded
into Rucker's yesterday and today,
and the great bundles of goods car-
ried out by all of them. "Rucker's" is
becoming a household word in and
for many miles around Norman, it
being more and more recognized that
the very best of goods and very best
of bargains can be secured there.
If you haven't already seen one of
the page ads, phone 43 and have one
sent to you. It will pay you.
