WE don't believe that any man is so
swayed by advertising, that he allows
it to make final settlement of the
clothes buying question for him.
But we do believe that honest advertising pays and
our advertising is an honest expression of what you
will find in our store.
Therefore let us announce to you
that our Fall and Winter exposition
of men's and young men's apparel
is now on display.
In strict keeping with our policy of
honest advertising, we do not hesi-
tate to say. that you'll find in this
clothing a wealth of style, a full
measure of quality and a fairness of
price that cannot be surpassed else-
where.
May we have the pleasure of your early call and the
opportunity to show you the new
