You'll Hear More About Us
I'l
300,000 Builders of BaodWifl
In four years Dodge Brothers
have supplied to the American
people, and to American
soldiers, more than three hun
dred thousand of their cars.
The demand for the car is just
as fresh, and just as vigorous,
today,- as in the first year of
its existence.
The simple truth is, indeed,
that the war has given a new
interest and a new impetus to
that demand.
To the natural and normal pre
ference which the American
people always accord a product
whioh wins their good will, has
been added a strong senti
mental attraction.
The car is inseparably linked,
in the thought of thousands of
homes, with its fine and faith
ful performance in the service
of the nation.
The' written and spoken word
of American army men, at
home and abroad, has given
the very name of Dodge
brothers' Motor Car a new
and a stirring significance.
It stands, in their minds and
hearts, as a synonym for pluck,
and endurance, and ability to
'carry on' under the stress
of desperately discouraging
conditions.
So the war that curtailed pro
duction of the car, has now
conferred upon it a stronger
and more spontaneous admira
tion than ever.
More than ever is it apparent,
now that the American people
think of it as a stable and an
established value, to be bought
on its merits, and without a
moment's hesitation.
Thus that national good will
which has become almost a
trade mark in Dodge Brothers
business, after four years, is at
the highest point fn their
history.
Dodge Brothers enter upon the
fifth year with a full sense of
the confidence reposed in them
and the determination to con
tinue to deserve it.

This is the last call tomorrow the
final day your last opportunity to get
one of these Genuine All-Wool Overcoats
at the heretofore unheard-of price of $15.
Not in all Philadelphia nor anywhere else
can you buy an Overcoat at $15 (even of shoddy)
that any self-respecting man would wear. Yet here
all day tomorrow until 10 P. M you can buy
all-wool, hand tailored Overcoats of two-score of
the most celebrated makers in the country at the
one flat price of $15. Overcoats that are retailing
everywhere at $25, $28, 4 30, $32.50 up to $35.
You can thank the tailors' strike for this op
portunity. For 12 weeks the entire industry stood
still. When it was settled, the makers were unable
to finish large numbers of garments in time.
Dealers everywhere were obliged to cancel their
orders. To unload, the makers simply had to take
what they could get for them. Our enormous out
let enabled us to grasp this opportunity. Don't
mjSS it next year they will cost you three times
this price.
There is a' plentiful range of sizes and models
and colors. You have the satisfaction of choosing
from a complete variety not from odd lots, broken
sizes ana the usual clearance sale conglomeration.
And the additional and decidedly gratifying privi
lege of pocketing a magnificent saving.
