Take Advantage of the
Lower Clothing Prices
Prices in the Great Winter Clearance
Sale Average Nearly One-half
Below Regular Prices of 1920
This is a clearance not only of our own winter stocks, but a disposal of
manufacturers' close-out stocks. We have sold great quantities of Men's
Clothing at no profit in the pa3t few months cutting down our own stocks,
and placing us in a position to go into the market. Thus, our special pur
chases enable us to compensate for our own losses to some extent, at the same
time giving our customers extraordinary values. All of the prices quoted are
far lower than regular prices for equal grades can be for spring:
See the Suits at $18.50, $24.50 and $26.50
These three wonderful groups average about ONE-HALF LESS than tho regular 1920 price. The Suits at
$18.50 are of all-wool cassimeres" and worsteds less than half the 1020 price. The Suits at $24.50, of all-wool cassi
rncren in good patterns, have an EXTRA PAIR OF TROUSERS about half the 1920 price. The Suits at $26.50,
for men and young men, are almost one-half below the early-season price.
