Lots of Men,
in Buying
Clothes are,
not half particular enough
about quality; they'll buy al
most anything that looks stylish
and fits if the price is low.
It's the wrong way to buy
clothes. We hope you don't buy
yours that way. The right way
is to be sure first of the quality
you are getting. Is it all wool?
Is it well tailored? A price
means nothing unless you know
what you are getting for it.
In this store we want you to
know what you are getting for
your money; we're not afraid to
tell you, either. Ask if the goods
are all wool; ask if they are
tailored right; ask about
style; wear; try the clothes on.
But if you see the Hart,
Shaffner & Marx label in the
clothes, just consider it an an
swer to your question; all wool;
clean, honest tailoring; correct
style; wear; price will be right.
