J. DE MoLL & Co. PIANOS—RADIOS—FURNITURE Twelfth and G Sts. N.W, Way back in 1876 William Hahn started out with the idea of providing Washington with the best shoes money could buy at the least eost. He made the name “Hahn" a symbol of quality faotwear at fair prices. The years rolled by. . .his sone grew up and carried on his policies, Wash- ington ceased to be the struggling little backward city of *76 and nearly a million people now shop at its stores. Today folks find the “Hahn” com- veniently loeated shop: constant source of footwear satisfaction. The styles, the quality and the values are increasingly outstanding. To the con- fidence of those loyal early customers is daily added that of a constant stream of new friends . . . « . . and now, a white-haired little lady says: “I want you to fit my granddaughter with _h_e;r first party slippers, too!” And BALTIMORE Women’s Shops 1207 F 7th & K 3212 14th
