An Unusual Opportunity
20 c£, Discount
On Our Magnificent Line of
Hart Schaffner & Marx clothes
ptefe-- • ■ ‘ * _ * . / 1
It is an unusual thing for a reputable firm to cut prices at the beginning of the
fall season. But this is an unusual fall season. We bought a large stock of
Fall and Winter Suits at the highest pi ices ever known, as did every other
merchant in the United States. When the merchandise came in the store
we realized that conditions were changing and the pubile were clamoring
for lower prices. For this reason and because we wanted to help swing
prices lower, we marked our clothing at the smallest margin in profit in
the history of our business. Since Sept. 1 st the price of cotton has declined
several cents per pound and to meet this condition we have decided not onlj
■ to take all the profit off but to go down into the cost as well. So we nre de
ducting 20 per cent from the already close prices and giving the public Jthe
benefit. Before buying we would like for you to see our clothes and prices.
