for School Wear
HERE are a lot of clothes for boys made nowadays
that we wouldn’t care to sell. Know they wouldn’t
please you; that you would’n get your money’s worth.
T
We’re making a special
effort to give the best there
is in style, fit and wear when
you buy here. And with such
Doys’ clothes as X tragoo D.
it’s not so very hard to out­
do the best efforts of any
store that isn’t able to sell
them.
Here are clothes we’re
glad to sell; clothes you’ll be
glad to get; that you can’t
get anywhere else in town.
We got the sole right to
handle these garments be­
cause we knew they would
be the best for you. And
w hat’s best for you is always
best for us.
If it’s style, if it’s quality,
if it’s price—you’ll find your
wants have been anticipated
here. You’ll see why this is
the best store for you; under­
stand why X tragoo D clothes
are the best.
During this month we are making special prices.
