Value in Clothes is best measured by the way they hold their shape and the length of time they wear satisfactorily. Shape that is pressed in with an iron is never permanent, the first weeks wear knocks it out. In OUR clothes the shape is taOored m while the suit is being made and is perma nent, it lasts as long as the garment holds together, That combined with the high quality of the material used is why OUR clothes are such fiue values. They are without except ion the best garments that you can buy for. $15.00 ;to $25.00 Won’t you let us prove it? WILL YOU BE ONE We try to make satisfied customers as they are our best advertisers.
