Here are today’s conditions in the tailoring shops ;— g.
Nobody has a surplus of material
Nobody has a surplus M -' ‘
: Fabrics are higher hi’price.
Place against them this fact :—
The store oflers for sale beginning Thursday morning this
special lot of excellent suits at.a price much less than actual value!
at' ‘ Is‘iwmu M” $19-75 .. ..
'And the store is able to do it for a very good and very plain reason. 15,65
'All fabricsare higher in price. That is true. For example, ,we are com-
polled today to pay three times what we paid 18 months ago for serges!
Yet there are some tailors who are hungry for bulsiness; who prefer
money to woolensi;' who are a bit afraid ofgthe future; who ,will make a special
price to keep busy! . ', ' WW!“
' We know at least one of theme-and these suits at the special price 'are
result of that knowledge!
