Likewise, the fact that the Heckscher Building is on the strategic corner, is of size and beauty to forever dominate this commercial centre, is obyiously un- deniable. And based upon the history of the growth of all trade centres, it is an equally apparent fact that the rentals in this sec- tion cannot have reached their peak to- day—must of necessity go higher. In the last analysis then, wholesalers, manufacturers or retailers of women’s wear, objets d’art or kindred lines, who cater to the exclusive trade, cannot fail to see the obvious business advantage of locating in this section and in this build- ing now. Le Coq d’Or, which crowns the Heck- scher Building, will always stand as the beacon of progress— distinguishing those who represent the best in commerce, trade and industry of this great Metropolis.

They split up in two teams. Lefts Rights OLAF CARLBERG CARL WICKSTROM MAX PRONICH PETER ANDERSON JOHN VUKOR JOHN BORSTROM Each took hold of a leg. Big Carl of the Rights, looked down at his bulging biceps and grinned. “There won’t be enough of these pants left to make a handkerchief when we get through with them.” “Go to it,” the referee shouted, and the battle was on. Man, it was some battle. Those six huskies pulled till their eyes popped out. They tugged — they hauled — they strained. Beads of sweat broke out on their foreheads like dew on cabbage leaves. The veins in their necks stood out like whip- cord. Their faces were red as boiled beets. The crowd went wild. “Go to it Lefts! Hold ’em Rights! Pull ‘em off their feet. Yip, Yip, Yow! Eece- yah!” The air rang with shouts and cheers. Every minute they expected the pants to part and the men to go down in two scrambling heaps. Did they? Not much! Inch by inch the Lefts gained on the struggling Rights until — “The Lefts win!” announced the referee, as the Rights were slowly pulled across the line, ‘“‘Now let’s look at the pants.” Not a seam had ripped! Not in a single place had the cloth torn! Big Carl expressed the verdict of the astonished crowd when he exclaimed,, “Well, I’ll say they are some pants!’’ And they are some pants. It is the ma- terial that goes into Sweet-Orr Tug-uf-War Work Pants, the way they are made and sewn, that makes them stand a strain like that. Every pair is just the same — you positively can’t rip them apart. We Challenge You We challenge you and any five friends you care to select, to go to any store and buy a pair of Sweet-Orr Tug-of-War Work Pants and try to pull them apart! Nobody’s been able to do it yet! But if you and your five friends can do it, we'll give all six of you a pair. That’s how sure we are of the material and workmanship in our Tug-of-War Work Pants. And that’s why the men who wear them, swear by them. They just naturally wear and wear and wear.
