Our Concave” Shoulderis a real improve- ment, something tangible, the only real big achievement that looms up amon things doneina half century of clothes-making. It isan achievement we are truly proud of, but it means more to you thanto us. The supe- riority of our ‘‘Concave”’ Shoulder to the or- dinary shoulder is easily proven by compari- _ son.

The ordinary shoulder is stuf d out with super- fluous, spongy wadding in order to give it the broad-shouldered effect, but the padding stretches and Rls and the shoulder loses its shape after a little wear, while our ‘“‘Concave”’ Shoulder will retain its shape—al ways.
