'PAGE EIGHT THE JJA GRANDE EVENING OBSERVER , Monday, April 23, 1923. THE BROADCLOTH SHIRT TO GO "HAND IN HAND" WITH - . SPRING SUITINGS. A FRIEND of mine asked me the other day whether I thought the demand for solid col or collar-attached shirts would continue for Spring. I said "Yes" so emphatically that he looked up and asked "Why?" I answered him by pointing out four facts: FIRST That this is a "solid-color year"'. SECOND That as long as Tweed, Gabardine, Whipcord, and soft suitings continue to be so popular, so long will solid-color shirts be the dressy and appropriate shirt. .THIRD That the demand for these shirts has caused them to outsell all others. FOURTH They are so cool and comfortable for spring and summer wear. We have a myriad of patterns and colors. Come in and let us show them to you. $5.00 to $7.50 c 201 Depot St ) . r THE OLD HOME TOWN By Stanley ! ;--zr:-lT wmc tooth MAf-fcws n 90V''4& i - Jr &z&zzs2f : r.-.'
