V alue-Uiving Rock upon y Which Our Clothing Business Is Built! THE Meier & Frank 'Clothing busi ness is as old as the store. Value giving w as the rock upon which -we es tablished it, just as all the other depart ments. And after all, what is there of more vital importance in Clothes buy ing? There are many reasons why nearly every Suit in our stock is $3 to $10 under-value, measured by the standard of other stores. Clothing is but one of our 72 departments. It bears only its ratio of expense. The quantity-buying is tremendous. We sell ten suits to the usual dealer's one. We do not take any one maker's line all the way through. The hundreds of beautiful Summer patterns and weaves come from a half dozen of America's largest and best known manufacturing tailors. Such makes as Adler-Roches-ter, A. B. KirschbaTim, The Washing ton Company, Society Brand and others find representation here. The man you think is hard to fit will be agreeably disappointed here. Every size for men of all builds stouts, long stouts, short stouts, slims and ex tra sizes, up to 52. Our prices range at h-$15, $20, $25 to $35! Sample Neckwear, lh and Less JUST about enough of this beautiful Sample Neck wear left for Saturday's selling. Hundreds of pieres have already bwo bought by 'delighted women. Ezquisite hand-made Neckwear, made wholly of or trimmed with real Irish crochet or net-top laces. Dutch Collars, Stocks, Yokes Cir cular Collars, etc. VotcLWith Every Purchase Today IT will take the final count to determine the winners! And today's voting will in all probability be the deciding factor in many of the scholarships. Every patron should take it upon themselves to help some ycnr.g man or woman on the last day of this contst. Don't fail to Tedecm every duplicate dales-check received with purchases today for ballots, casting thera in someone's favor. Store will close tonight at 8:45, so that employes and patrons alike may wit ness the parade. Names of winners in Contest will be posted in Fifth -street vestibule window as soon as compiled probably about 9:30. 40 HIGHEST CONTESTANTS UP TO 3 O'CLOCK FRIDAY AFTERNOON : ItlOBKHT WOXAM CON'TBHTAJtT.
