About ¢ Griffon
We've seen customers come in here
and start to ‘‘shy’”’ when we asked '
them to try on a ‘‘Griffon’’ Suit.
They had the idea that Griffon Clothes
cost a lot more than they do. Maybe
you have the same idea. If so—we’'ll
hreak the good news gently. We have
Griffon Suits for Spring as low as $l5-
.00 to $27.50. g
We wouldn’t blame any man for ex
pecting them to cost a lot more than
that! :

Big Blaze Destroys
Honclulu Chinatown
HONOLULU, May 10—(#)—
While terror-stricken orientals
barred their door and fought the
rescue attempts of police and fire
men, flames swept through Honolu--
lu’s Chinatown.
Nearly all of the residents of the
two streets claimed by the ;blaze
are believed to have been saved.
One man is known to be dead and
scores of families are homeless.
The fire raced swiftly through the
flimsy wooden structures, many of
which were abandoned to the flames
by firemen who concentrated on the
protection of buildings further on.
