And It’s nice to see you all
again after a long and lonely
winter.
But It hasn’t been so long.
Seems but a few days since you
were here buying Christmas pres
ents!
Seems but a few days since the
geese were winging their way
south.
And it hasn’t been so lonely!
What, with all the exciting basket
ball games and the wonderful
tournament, and the trips you’ve
taken, and the fine roads we’ve
had, the clear skies and still,
sunny days. .
No, It couldn’t have been too
lonely and here It’s spring with
the hustle and bustle of getting
ready the ground for another
crop. »
Here at this store, we’ve been
getting ready for another busy
season —scores of shipments of
new goods, new styles, new and
lower prices of some things.
Take for Instance, men’s suits,
sport and top coats—never before
such lovely fabrlce, exquisite
styles, perfect tailoring. And
when It comes to ladles footwear,
never before such a variety of
easy-to-flt styles, such lovely
leathers.
Men’s and young men's foot
wear comes In a variety of styles
and leathers and are possibly a
bit cheaper than last season.
Then hats — glory hallelujah,
but you must see the exquisite
styles and shades!
Our guess Is there’ll be few
hatless heads once these adorable
hats are seen.
Speaking of such things as
shirts and ties, sox and under
wear—Just one little peep will
convince you of their lovely tex
ture, Ingenuity of design and end
less variety of shapes.
Then another little peep will
convince you that THE FAD is
surely the best place to buy.
