To the Women Of
This Community
In tine fine art of
purchasing---of getting a full
equivalent for their money--men
must concede the equality if not
the superiority of women.
More and more
the good judgment of women is
helping men to select better
looking, better fitting, better
wearing clothes. Faults in a
garment that men usually would
pass unnoticed become fatal blem
ishes in woman's eye.
An expert woman
examiner passes judgment upon
every detail Of Kuppenheimer
garment after it has been made.
Her unerrlng eye goes over 1t
inch by inch on the watch for
the slightest flaws--a quicker in
stitch, wrinkle in the fit, an
imperfection in the buttonhole.
No other clothes
makers, SO far as we know, do
this. And no other makers pro-
duce garments SO uniformly free of seen
or unseen flaWs--garments that look on
men as a woman's good judgment
knows they ought to look.
This is a store of
equal rights "a store where
women may shop or help men folks
shop without feeling that they have in
truded--a store where they will find
every provision for their comfort and
convenience.
