We hail this changed public, because we ourselves have nothing to change. For 35 years our unbudging policy has been sound woolens; best of tailoring, smart style, fullest intrinsic value and a moderate profit mark-up due to our broad distributive outlet as the Premier Qutfitters of New England.

Patriotism is three parts emotion and music is the language of the emotions. R Courage is born of the heart and music speaks straight to the heart. In times that try men’s souls, every force which keeps the nation’s spirit bright is a great and positive asset. Every means of combating trial with happiness must be carefully conserved and fostered. A nation at war requires food for its soul as well as for its body. forces must be maintsined. The mental and moral resources of the people must be preserved at their Recreational and cultural activitics must provide the needed relaxation, revive the droop- ing spirits, soften the sting of sorrow, instil new ardors of bravery and determination.
