All participants are requested to come to Broad street, between Cen¬ tre and Belvidere. to form the line and be there no later than 6:30 p. m. The parade will start promptly at 6:45 to visit our neighboring towns, returning to parade Nazareth at approximatelv 9 oclock.
This parade is the forerunner of a big booster .sale sponsored by Naz¬ areth merchants for a period of two days. Tomorrow and Saturdav will mark another episode in the history of Nazareth merchants in offering extra specials in the " ^ of price reductions. All particip.U'.ng mer¬ chants have taken spe-idl care In selecting merchandi.se o:' -nent and are offering bargains su:.i as can¬ not be equalled anywhere else.
The community is invited to visit Nazareth the.se two days, take a peep Into every store and there surely will flnd something needed w Ith a booster price that is surpris¬ ingly less than expected. It is im¬ possible for the merchants to state in their ads. contained In this issue. all of the .specials they have to ofler for these two days. Therefore, to make sure you are getting the full benefit of what they have to offer at this time is to enter their .stores and see for yourself. All stores will be open tomorrow and Saturday even¬ ing for the convenience of shoppers and ample parking space is always Within easy reach of the store you want to visit.
