Notice to the Public
And Clothing Trade

In making the following state
ment we are not attempting to
fasten on every clothing retailer
the charge Of profiteering.
Unquestionably there are ex-
ceptions. However, the general
charge that retail prices are alto-
gether too high, as succinctly
stated by President Harding in a
recent speech, is not to be denied.
To remedy this situation in the
interests of the public. and our
selves, we have decided to elm
mate the retailer entirely.
The public, therefore, can now
buy clothing direct from us, the
manufacturers. at actual sChole-
sale prices; absolutely pure tDool
suits, remember. at $3.50, $25.00.
$4,000 and $35.00-no higher
suits for men and young men that
usually sell at from $40 to SIS in
elaborate retail establishments.
These suits, in fact, offer an
unusual and irresistible appeal in
high quality, latest style and
careful tailoring-equal in every
respect to hand tailored custom
work-faultlessly fashioned of
f1awless fabrics, 1908 pure wool
the very finest procurable from
the leading woolep mills, such as
sE'ronNh- -RiVarG Croonuich and
like high grade concerns.

Dickens will always retain his pre-

will recall Poor Joe, in "Bleak House." He
was a derelict of the London Streets who
moved about in a vertable labyrinth of
advertising signs and bilIboards. Their bright
colors screamed at him by day, and their
lights blinleed at him by night. But they were
meaningless to Poor Joe-he couldn't read.
Yet, even Poor Joe would have diff
Guilty shopping in this store. He would need
only to point to or ask for the thing he wished

the quality and the price would be RIGHT.

that what they get is the best of its kind at
the price.
