Finding a `windfall of pre-war nylons and girdles, the sarge scrambles too put on a big sale. In the Jot Em Down store today, the gents close shop after a busy day and are wore to a frazzle.
They’re still amazed at how the ladies went wild over the rare items.
They discuss the way the women fought over the garments, and being trampled. Now that the sale is
over the gents swear never to have a sale like that one, even if it did bring in a lot of money.
The gents nurse their bruises, and find grandpap sprawled on the floor. He claims to have been first in line, until the stampede hit. Hearing the sound of crying coming from the feed room, Lum leaves Abner to talk with grandpap while he goes to see if someone else has been trampled. Lum reports it’s Miss Hartford. in their big sale, she didn’t get to pick up a pair of nylons for
herself.
