"Man's Summer Fancy" To many men the. Broadcloth shirt repre sents the essence of good taste, and rightly so, for, after all, there is no shirt that more com pletely symbolizes quality and refinement. Broadcloths are guaranteed; they will not split or crack; they will not fuzz; indeed, their construction is so unusual that they brook no comparison as far as service, and durability are concerned. So splendid is the fabric, so fine the tailoring, that you will find 'them irresistible. $3.00 and $(i.()0 3 201 Depot St. Sir SitS GONE FOREVER ,00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 o o - o o a WU iuu endeavoring to maintain Uiu hiyliral possible standard of quality and 'service.

Du vou remember us a kid how you colored up as you stepped out on bumlay in tho new boots from the department store, how evciy br.y in thc neighborhood could see 'cm shine n block nwiiv and then scared you halt to deuth with expectoratini; thrums : unce in a while soirc rowdy would carry out the threat land you had to cot some dry leaves or oid papers to clean-up thc new I bull dojr tees. Do you remember i inose uays : I That was when most shoes had only one shine and that when the store keeper asked you if you wanted them in a box. Shoo shine "pal aces" and "parlors" hadn't opened up yet in the old town. Times Do Change. Just as Ions as they had two Kood taps it didn't matter so much in years iiro that one's shoes blended well with the dust of the turnpike. Shiny Khoes like silk shirts and trou-l scr creases men belittled a mun in the estimation of his fellows. Hut how the old town has changed since the war. A shoe shine a day is no less impoi-tiyit than eating and sleppinir and dust on tho shoes is a violation of the first rule of cticiucttc that registers on unmie.stifinllv ns I from the slicks. Weddings and. funerals were the ciily events on the social calendar a decnilo nro which required the uro oi tne lioltle or jet black polish with its sponge dauber. In those emer gencies tho shoe bottle was grudg ingly disinterred from tho shoe box. Never was a country maiden more conscious of her Alice bluo gown than tho Kissessor or n shoo shine. Thcso poli:shcd shoes felt as con spicuous as nose boils. It was then best girls loved the boy, and sleek haired Homcos with polished shoos were much to '(: avoided by any self-respecting maid en. Hut with the present generation of sweetharts 15 cents for a pic dale shoe shine is as necesMary ns the price of two tickets for the mov ies; that is except to that wise in dividual' of flappordcm' who has dis covered that patent leather shoes and. a bottle of vaseline obtain tho same results as the 15 cents with the advantage that a 10 cent bottb. of vaseline outlasts three half-soles, while a dance outlasts a 15-ccnt shoe shine. t t,7f: kJJ 7H BAHoVV -v st lSffr" - ,03.i. jSrr x?a t IV fxr sg.
