Never Pemalize Our Customers We never penalize our customers by making those who buy first pay for those who buy last. Our prices are the same all the year round. Our consistent upstairs policy of huge turn-over and low margin of profit eliminates all- need of "sales." That's why we never have to have them. You can be sure of one thing about a "sale." , Some body pays the piper. And why should that somebody be you? Remember, when you pay $75 for a suit or over coat that later only brings $45 at a "sale," you are paying the double profit that makes the "sale" possible. We never penalize our customers. We give every body a square deal. Consequently, we, still retain the increasing confidence of the buying Public and so dominate the men's clothing business in the Northwest in eight years.
