"favored nation" clause
when the day dawns for
first choice of the new
weaves and styles !

heeled with generous
choice of Suit styles,
and never more so than
right now when many
a store's assortments
are pinched by the
meticulous policy pur

plain-back Suits, snug
waisted Suits, loose,
comfortable Suits; soft
roll lapels, flat lapels;
sharp top, slender lapels
Golf Suits with
knickers or trousers at
