If the merchants, manufacturers and speculators in raw materials, who have made more or less money during the war, will get together, they can find a way to reduce ex- penses, agree upon smaller profits, cut off extravagant advertising and other unnecessary methods common when we all speeded up on broad-gauge tracks during the war. Retail merchants can do with smaller profits If They Try Hard to Do So and the people will surely appreciate it. The fact is, they have a right to expect that, instead of any further advances from now on, that makers and dealers, by {pining her, can each shave something off the ol pay The universal expectation of the people can be met.

They were made for good stores in various parts of the country. But— Conditions, as you know, have been uncer- tain. Shipments have been delayed for several causes, And— In a big manufacturing plant it doesn’t take long for a big stock to accumulate. The Fortunate —-part of this condition is the fact that it results in this sale and in these low prices. The maker came to us because he knew we could use the large quantity. And— He also realized that, with our 20 per cent. discount, the opportunity would be a real one. So On Tuesday morning at 7.30 these suits will be ready; and there will be sizes and styles and colors and patterns for every man who has a definite idea of the suit he wants. We know of nothin, better for service than good worsteds, pri meres and flannels; and you can well under- stand that our acceptance of these suits is proof that they measure up to the required standard of our men’s stores.
