We Haye Heard a Whisper
Upon Our Patriotic
Movement
that the vote of the people from May 3 to July 3
was a vote, of ..
confidence
approval
appreciation
A man or aStore's self-estimate is not
always safe to go upon.
What we care for is the estimate the people
mike of what we are doing, and we have never
had such unanimous praise and encouragement
as we have had in the past sixty days.
There are some things worth more than a
cash profit paid over a counter.
We feci encouraged to work along new lines
and to make a store of greater service, and at
the same time to help to make Philadelphia what
the new Mayor wants it to be.
Literally thousands of our citizens and
fellow-countrymen have applauded and sup
ported the effort that we have only begun and
will continue to work upon to bring about a
status of more reasonable prices.
' Whatever comes day by day the signature
under this little piece in the corner means that
the merchandise we sell
(1.) shall be of undeniably good quality .
(2.) shall be unquestionably of the
value placed upon it, and
(3.) that from every point of view the
business organization of the Store .
shall be growing into effectiveness
for the public good.
GEORGETTE

One style with lots of
tucks and lace is pink and

Another with collar made
wholly of net and lace edg

A navy Georgette heavily
braided is $16.75. TMs stylo

Navy and black waists
with white vests are $25.
Navy with bisque vest,
heavily embroidered with'
