We firmly believe that fashion-conect fashion
IS not question Of price but of ability to incor-
porate It in lesser cost merchandise.
We also believe that full safeguards as to quality
integrity Of material and manufacture. accuracy Of
labelling. freshness and desirabilty of merchandise.
full assortments. absolute guarantee and straight
forward dealing. belong as much to goods sold at
lesser prices as to those sold at greater prices.

a dime or a dollar Is expended; that the public IS
