Phil Murphy sold out to the
Lomen Pros who have taken over
his store, stock lock and barrel and
both seem satisfied with the deal
which seems as it should be. Phil
will stay with the Lomen Bros, un
til the Fall at any rate and says
he will be there to give the same
grade of satisfaction to his former
customers at the new stand. The
consolidation, say the Lomen Bros,
will not mean any advance in prices.
Rather it enables them to avoid an
advance which otherwise the out
side prices would have compelled
them to make in almost all lines,
now selling wholesale at prices
little short of prohibitive. It is
likely that the present Murphy store
will be closed, but that is now under
consideration by the new owners.
