RUSSELL & WESTON
FEATURING new
SPRING MODES
Wooltex Garments Prominent
in Gala Exhibit of New
Styles.

ITO give you the greatest possible
( opportunity to become acquainted
with the new Spring fashions in ey-
cry article of dress, We have arranged
these formal opening days, Tuesday
and Wednesday, March 80 and 81
This was the introduction by which
the Russell and Weston Co. an
nounced it's readiness for the annual
Easter style show. Read il again 1t
is fitting foreword to your visit to
the store.
Briefly it tells you that throughout
this great emporium Spring has once
more burst forth in all her radiance. 1t
forecasts for you a wonderland and
cordially it invites you to come and
satisfy your aspiration for what is
new and lovely. It's the court of
Fashion and your presence is request
ed.
1t is only natural that the feminine
mind should first turn to the coats
and suits. Let's ascend to the second
| floor, then. Here it is that we find
the center Of attraction-the re-
nowned Wooltex garments.
Among women who aspire to be
well dressed the word "Wooltex' has
come to mean far more than ordi-
nary cloak or suit. The H. Black
Company who make the Wooltex
clothes select the styles. for each sea-
son with so much care that, while
expressing with -subtlety the prevail
ing motive, they are at the same time
unobtrusive. 1t is this feature which
is responsible for their quiet gentility
of style and their refined good taste.
/ WoolteX garments are not extreme,
but, as might be expected at a store
of the prestige enjoyed by the Russell
! d Weston Company. they represent
/ the utmost in ready TO wear garments.
! And valueS-you can buy amazing
values in the Wooitex garments.
! Sometimes a dollar or two more than
you had intended TO spend will pro-
cure your very ideal Of coat or suit
! Then again you will find that what
you intended to spend is enough
and dollar or TWO too much-to pay
for exactly what You want.
AS captivating as the Wooltex gar
ments are with their conservative
style features, extremes Of value and
! superiority of workmanship it would
! be unreasonable to expect that any
one make of garment could monopo-
= lie everything. Thus il happens that
grouped around the WoolteX are a
number Of other makes. For example
there is a house which specializes on
stylish stouts." The presence of
these garments supports the main
! cast and balances the ensemble
! The most glowing description that
) could be written would fail to do
! justice to this section Of the exhibit
/ They must be seen and you can visit
here with as much freedom as though
/ you We're visiting Your neiehbor. You
/ are. not pers uaded l&Asy.s If it should
/ happen that you carfaN find anything
! to your liking your no" will be con-
/ stdered as final as your yes will be
i spontaneous when they show you the
right thing.
Profusion Of Dresses.
! Today, Wednesday. will develop
monster showing Of dresses. You will
find the impress of militarism on
many a model. Military fronts. gold
! collars, Belgian blues, soldier blues
! and soldier straps and adaptations Of
/ infantry and cavalry coats. But even
| though a little militarism is needed to
I supply touch of smartness it has by
no means run away with the fashions.
/ No dressmaker or tailor anywhere
could design for YOU prettier or more
| individual suit than YOU can select
ready for service at this store. In
particular. examine q dress of black
and white striped wolfe over white silk
