During the war, the temp
tation to wink at an all
wool standard was more than
some folks could stand.
Personally, we felt that
Mary's lamb was not the
pet to f1irt with!
Not once did we deviate
from our high standard.
Not once did we forego
our test for all-Wool.
Nor our test for fast color.
Of course, there we're times
when it was hard to get
our sort of stuffs. You re-
member how government Or
ders crowded American mills.
Coincidentally, however,
the British mills found them
selves adjusted to take care
of their foreign trade. They
were just as anxious to re-
tain their reputation for fine
Woolens as we we're to get
their cheviots and Worsteds!
So, as an old and valued
customer, bales and bales
Of their finest fabrics con-
tinued to come along all
during the war. Resultant
ly, with whatiwe were able
to get of the best made in
America" we had little or
nothing to worry about.
Nor have we now,
Since the signing of the
Armistice we've been to
Europe and back, having
tucked some very satisfac-
tory arrangements up our
sleeve.
Can't give away trade
secrets but suffice to say
we're ready for the biggest
year in our history.
