But all of it was green ... and that grew monotonous. So next we hear of her wearing furs! For women, it seems, just must have change. Everybody knows that a red hat will cure the blues! t Most important of all, new clothes for Mother seem to have a cheering effect on the entire family. A success- l w ful little dress is wortK a song before breakfast or a Grand Surprise Dessert at dinner-time. So Wise Men (other wise referred to as good providers and model husbands) are falling in with feminine plans to buy some new clothes this winter . . . and here's why; we say to act now, and save! The sweatshop, and the flashy little $2.88 silk dress, have passed out of the picture together. There was no stand ard of value for the sweatshop worker, she toiled like a coolie for any wage she could get . . . someetimes was tricked into working without pay! Now, the NRA codes in the dress industry, as you know, have raised wages, shortened hours, eliminated child labor, and improved working conditions all around. This is a good thing for everyone concerned. For the truth is that the price of women's clothing had fallen so low that no one could make a decent living out of it. Wages went down and down . . . workmen were laid off . . human hands and heads, and their products, too, seemed to have lost al most all their real value That is what the NRA codes are for , to restore value to the common things of life ... to make everytmt and everything worth sometiiing again. J And it's working! Wages are up. Woolens have advanced 49'. Silk and rayon dress goods 35. The price of women's garments is bound to go up. So good buys, right now, are ripe for picking, and prices won't even be lower, they say, at January sales'. In fact, tiiey will probably never again be so low as they are today! Now is the time to buy!
