It very good advice, just At this
time when winter is so near; when
knitted underwear styles have
reached the perfection found in
Merode; when Merode values are
at their best, because Of the proxim-
ity of Merode Week.
Body-comfort is, or should be, so
natural that it is forgotten. Body

Youcan realize complete body-com-

you are careful about your under

weight of fabric and even more care
full about the FIT.

1t has been poor fitting that has
sometimesmade knit underwear un-

examine and try Merode. they will
find new comfort and relief from

And such perfect FIT!
Merode is featured and sold by

for every member Of the family and

est, be accepted. The policy of the
United States government as regards
War department liquidation, has from
the outset been lone of sympathy to-
ward its manufactures and business
firms" stated War department Off
cial, "and to have thrown excessive
stocks on the market at any one time
would have incurred harsh and just
criticism of our government"
"If the comment in English trade

n War department spokesman re-
marked, that policy was less consid-
crate of home manufacturing and mer-
camille interests than the American
governments policy. Furthermore, 1t
must be remembered that the British
government sold its surplus to the
