conditions in the clothing industry. To stimulate buying
during the two months that are 'normally the peak-load
buying period of the year. To keep a great organization '
of skilled labor at work and vast stocks of woolens moving
We, as the local Price dealers, are co-operating to achieve
the same end.
Avail yourself of this opportunity to select the finest of
all-wool fabrics for your winter suit or overcoat now.
