Practical Things
Girls and Boys
For Little
to Wear
To children summer means play and fun—games, sports and frolic out amidst the sunshine, birds
and butterflies. True, it brings to mothers the problem of appropriate clothes, but we have planned
for this. Now, from our stocks you can plan thoroughly and the cost will be very moderate.
GIRLS’ WASH DRESSES
Mothers who have come to look to us for
practical washable frocks for girls will not be
disappointed with this showing. We have a
fine lot of them priced at only a trifle more
than the worth of the fabric.
BOYS’WASH SUITS.
Several clever styles, unusually becoming
are offered at small prices. Every garment is
made to give long wear and stand a frequent
trip to the tub. White, dainty combinations
and the durable colors that won’t get “soiled”
easily.
