The “Style Jury” Announces F all the lovely new creations for Spring, which are the models that will stand out as the very smartest in design and the most advanced in style? The famous designers here and abroad have brought out r Sprinic showings, each has given expression to the mode in his or her own | dual way Who has succeeded best? Which of the new designs will establish the mode? It is such a difficult question. Small wonder if milady i3 bewildered when she goes a-shopping. Now, suppose we had a “Style Jury” to judge all the new n just as is done @t an art exhibit! Suppose that this com- mittee of fashion authorities should select from uverywhere the newest and smartest Then you could be sure that the you bought would be perfect in every respect Does Viennet achieve a new ness of line? Does RPoiret str during new note in color? Does Worth originate a chic novelty in decorative detall? The “Style Jury” is in touch with each new tendency its selection of smartest spring models An - idle fancy? No, the “Style Jury” is now an established fact. A new idea has come into the world of fashion. A num- ber of eminent clothes authorities, repre- senting leading stores of America, have fombined their knowledge and experience to help vou in the buying of your clothes. But that is not all. These experts have 1lso perfected a plan that brings you their exclusive selections at prices never before possible. Scarcely half what you would expect to pay. Throwgh the vast resources of the lead- Ing stores co-operating in this new plan tremendous economies are effected. Every step in the buying of materials and the making of the finished garments is under the direct supervision of the “Style Jury”! Every creation must pass their oensorship Quality, too, is assured, and fin- ished workmanship. Nor forget the all-important element of exclusiveness. But, perhaps, most remarkable of all —the price. All Madelon dresses are offered at only one price. $39.50. in every detail. Then only is it given the ‘award of merit"—the name *) Under this name it makes its debut the public. Madelon models are sold only through the stores participating in this plan—only one leading store in a city. Thus is at- a degree of exclusiveness hitherto tation is discouraged, le Jury” selects and creates its models behind closed doors. No one else sees them until they actually appear in the exclusive stores privileged to show them. So this, brie s the story of Madelon. A revolutionary idea, surely. And how much it means to you! Think of having brought together, for your convenlent se- lection, the very elect of the new styles, chosen from all the varied creations of the great designers here and abroad Surely it is worth vour whils fo inspect the new Madelon models for street, afternoon and evening. them in both our Women's and Misses’ Dress Shops.
