Everywhere; Says 200 Work Days Yearly Will Pr Dr. Charles BY DUDLEY SIDDALL SCHENECTADY, N. Y., Oct. 29. —Four hours’ work a day! Two hun @red working days a year! Some time, when the human race | Jearns how to live, these 800 annual hours of work will be sufficient to) maintain any man and his family on @ high scale of living. This prediction is made by Dr. Charles P. Steinmetz, one of the World's foremost electrical engineers. “To bring this about,” said he, “all that is necessary is to eliminate waste. “You encounter waste everywhere.

Waste and! duplication of effort all around us! “Most of these wastes can be done away with. And then four hours a day, 200 days a year, will be all the! work that any man need do.” Dr. Steinmetz came to America 33! years ago, a penniless immigrant. In that time he has risen to a place of | first rank In one of the nation's big- gest industries. He ts 57 years old | He Msists that he works only an hour a day. “By that,” says he, “I mean that I spend only an hour a day on cor-| Tespondence and other drudgery. The | Fest of the time I am an electrical | engineer.” He doesn't even know what his pay fs!

Thou- sands of them have dug out the facts about clothes. They have discovered that a good suit of clothes is just worth what it can be made and delivered for. They know that wool is wool— that fine tailoring is fine tailoring. And they realize that modern methods of manufacturing and selling effect startling economies. Successful business and professional men prefer Fahey-Brockman Clothes because there is an air of distinction about F-B garments that cannot be counterfeited. The fabrics are always the best and of the latest design. The workmanship is always excellent in a high de- gree. To buy these fine clothes at our current prices is convincing evidence of good judgment. Money-makers know that it takes a great deal more than our three modest prices, *25 *30 *35 to get fifty thousand men wearing and recom- mending Fahey-Brockman Clothes. It takes a first-quality product, a big generous service and a world of old-fashioned honesty, sincerity and character. F-B Fall and Winter Clothes at cur- rent prices are the greatest value in the North- west. To give the same values, competition would have to organize a number of machines like the Fahey-Brockman machine, swing ’em into high and keep ’em there. And, gentlemen, that simply isn’t done. A eaensceces Great Overcoats If you want the biggest overcoat value—see the won- derful display at Fahey-Brock- man’s before buying. There’s something unusually impres- sive about the long array of super overcoats we are show- ing. Here you see our famous “Pembrook” Model—a double- breasted Ulster, belt all around, with Patch and Flap Pockets, and it is only one of scores of models we carry in all popular fabrics, shades and designs. See, study and com- pare values before buying! It pays to do so.

Wenever“‘slowed up’ early buying by charging higher prices on the arrival of new styles. On the contrary, we have always “speeded up” early buying by marking new models at the lowest possible price, That’s the only just and fair thing to do. It’s also good business.
