Mans Clothes Tell Their Own Story It doesn't pay to wear sloppy, poor fitting, catch-as-catch-can clothing now days. Not when people prefer the nicer things in every day life. A man's clothes are just as important as anything else, in fact more so. And that's just the reason why they should be tailor made from recognized quality fabrics. The merchant tailor is n't out of date as some fel lows think. He is right to the front with the details of the latest information from the centers of style designing. He can make classy clothes for the old or young and give you just what you want. Heppner Tailoring and Pressing Shop JOHN SKUZESKI Chas. W. Smith, county agent, and W. O.
