Subway Sto re Day
imhels Great Bargain Feast
Never confuse the Gimbel Subway Store with
mere "bargain basements." It is easy to collect and
sell showy things and with practice it may grow
easy to call them "bargains," but trash or poor
style goods wouldn't be a true bargain at any price.
The Gimbel Subway Store is planned to give
representative showing, with fairly-good surround
ings, of garments and every kind of goods the store
deals in, at prices that give such good savings as one
finds between a cafireteria and a big hotel. In both
cases the things are thoroughly good.
Once in a while we secure enough lots of goods
at a saing to justify a very real bargain day
Tomorrow Wednesday is such an occasion.

" Verily a "scoop" for serge this season is at
a premium. And note that French serge is used
in the making a soft, fine weave.
Fifteen of the new season's-prettiest models
are represented five are pictured. There are
straight lines and Russian lines Eton jacket,
chemise and bodice fashions.
Plain tailory or elaborately braid trim
med styles. Military silk braid or lacet ribbon
braid form effective designs, or the former is ap
plied in rows and rows. Buttons, too, are ex
tensively used, in some instances extending down the back from the neck line
to hem of skirt. Narrow belt ties that tie in front or back. In fact, there is a style to
suit any preference. Navy blue predominates black also is represented.
