WORKMEN REMOVING
OLD TROLLEY RAILS
WPA workers have begun the re
moval of trolley rails on East Main
street, from the Mad river to Meri
den road, starting tne new project
after completing rail removal on
Robinson street.
The steel Is to be salvaged for use
In war production. The WPA pays
the labor costs and supplies some
equipment and material, the city
supplying the rest.
.The little man who wants to know asks

“Where
WILL MY
CLOTHING
DOLLARS
>
Buy Most”
fVMWVWvyvvvvvvvvv^
. . . and today as always, the answer is . . . “in
the stores of LEOPOLD MORSE.” The firm that
has weathered the ups and downs of ninety years
in the clothing business and never for one min
ute has faltered in its principles of integrity.
Styles change from time to time ... but character
does not.
Each generation has seen LEOPOLD MORSE
always a step ahead.
,4
There's a certain distinction that makes a LEO
POLD MORSE suit stand out. Its wearer enjoys
not only the feeling of being well dressed .. . but
the positive knowledge that he IS. Each suit is
an investment in self-confidence and comfort.
And now when CONSERVATION is so vitally
important it is more essential than ever that each
clothing dollar secures its full one hundred cents
in value. All things being equal, you'll find that
a LEOPOLD MORSE suit stands up longer . . .
while maker-to-you savings will help you with
your war bond budget. (
