September has been a busy mouth
among the factories of South Nowell.
011 September 1 the late! the leading
stiff hats were issued, and the retail
trade settled down to a decision on the
style or styles best adapted to ' their,
trade. The change In the weather also
gave an impetus to trade, which has
been prolonged during the month.
The Crofut dtKuapp company have
been rushed in every department of
their works. making the Spellmau and
the Collins do Fairbank styles, as well
as their own special shapes, and the
styles of their other great leaders.
The Volk Hat company have never
been busier than during this month.
Duplicate orders have been coming in
from the west and far west on styles
that they introduced early, and since
the Harrington was issued a large num-
ber of orders have come in on that
block. They are also making the styles
of the other leading makers.
”John C. Wilson & company were
never busier. They did a good early
trade, but every one of their customers
has been cautious and all bought accord
ing to their immediate need. After the
issue of all the leading shapes customers
in most cases sent their duplicate orders
in on the shapes issued by the firm, the
Chapiu being one of the favorites.
The Adams Brothers Manufacturing
company are working at a lively rate to
get off their orders promptly. The Un-.
equaled brand of stiff hate is giving the
same satisfaction to their customers as
in the past, and the quality is being
(maintained.
The South Norwalk Hat company are
receiving generous orders for their well-
known make of stiff hats, and their
salesmen are on the road taking orders
on the styles that were issued through
August. Their own special shapes,
however, are selling fully as well as
those issued by the well known leaders
of fashion.
Thicle & Holmes are well satisfied
with their efforts this fall, and their
business shows a large increase over the
same time last year. This month has
been a particularly busy one, and the
prospects are good for a large October
trade.

business in the making of bodies in the

and has had long experience in this
particular department of hatmakiug.

The Power of our Big Store!
11 has already been felt in every quarter and is acknowledged by
every competitor.
All you have to do is to read their advertisement
and sec that they admit that they now get less for their goods than
heretofore. or they will not be in
line with (ioldbcrg's New York
Millinery Palace. Some claim to sell from 25 to 50 per 1::111 lower than
they ever did before. What is this but an admission that they are now
claiming to do something that they are not doing. or that they have
been forced by our big store to come down from the two high prices
they haVe been charging Norwalk people?
