All-wool Clothes
Y OU want to know frankly
whether you are getting all
wool or not. Every now and then
we're asked, "Is it all wool?" or
"There isn't much wool in clothes
these days., is there?"
Let us put you right about this. It's a fact, there
are a lot of adulterated fabrics on the market
these days, and the joke of it is these suits are be
ing sold for just a trifle less than you can buy all
wool for; and you know as well as we do that all
wool gives the best service. Is it any wonder,
then, that we confidently urge you to come to
us for—
Hart Schaffner & Marx
and
Styleplus Clothes
They're always all-wool, perfectly tailored and
designed by the world's master designers.
We'll show you some very strik
ing ideas in young men's suits
and topcoats, as well as some
very attractive new conservative
models. All reasonably priced.

the day and will long be pleasantly
remembered by the hundreds of
knights who were fortunate to hear
it.
Following the initiation, Crowley
