The Call Tomorrow Will Be for New Spring Outfittings
Three Amateur Fishermen
and George Roberts,
Their Guide,
Made It Possible to Get Two-fifths of a
Ton of Big Fish on a Wednesday
all acceptable as food by the human family.
Scores of heavy amber jacks, none under
twenty and some weighing up to thirty-five pounds,
clamored to be taken in on rod and reel and trolling
lines.
Yesterday we fished off the Government
Anarnntinc Station opposite Egmont Key, for
.ApypL of which there were plenty to be had, with
little shiners for bait, with lines upon long bamboo
poles.
There were a dozen fishing-boats around, and
a score of handsome old sunburned men drinking in
the healthful air, pulling in the fish with sunbrowned
hands.
Florida air at this time of the year is a lot better
than medicine and doctors' prescriptions.
A few hours for the transfer puts one into the
sunshine and air of June.

Regimental Stripe
Ties Made to Sell
at $1.50
The original of these ties are the
higher-priced English" goods. We had
these made of a fine quality of silk rep
to sell at $1.50 and it will tax any man's
discernment to distinguish them from
the imported ties.
Made in the smart narrow four-in-hand
shape that young men like now
and all in authentic British regimental
stripes and other effective diagonal
stripes.

Men's Fine Silk Shirts
at a Lower Price
We have just brought in some beau

that we can sell for $7.50. It is the
first time in five years that shirts of
this quality have been priced so low.
We hope this may be an indication that
prices on silk shirts are coming down.
It is not only the quality of the silk
in these shirts that recommends them.
They are uncommonly beautiful in their
colorings and designs.

There is no reason why a man should buy a Spring
suit that is less than 100 per cent fine, except the reason
be in the man himself.
Although they may not be found everywhere, still
there is no shortage of suits that come up to that descrip
tion and this is one store that has them in full selection.
What does "100 per cent fine" mean in a man's suit
of clothes?
To us it means fabrics 100 per cent wool, fashion 100
per cent correct, tailoring 100 per cent excellent. It means
what "sterling" means in ailver.
So far as it is humanly possible to put these things
into men's suits the suits shown in the Wanamaker Men's
Clothing Store have them.
Prices, $32 to $65.
Youth's models, $28 to $40.

NEW on the Sixth Floor you will find a group of
dining-room suits, which, if anything, are even
more remarkable than those that have already
made this Manufacturers' Readjustment Sale such an
extraordinary event.
On these there is a saving of 40 per cent from
standard prices. Compared with the prices of 1920
the economy is even greater. And the suits are of
the finest kind. Probably nothing better could be
said of them than that they are of the same kind as
all the other suits in the Sale, which means that there
are none finer in the country. This is furniture sound
to the heart of it, and handsome and desirable beyond
gainsaying. The latest shipment brings ten new
patterns.
Queen Anne suit, mahogany or walnut; buffet,
china closet, service cabinet, oval table, oval extension
table, five side chairs and one arm chair with mohair-plush
seats, a wonderfully fine suit for $790.
Heppelwhite suit in mahogany or walnut; buffet,
china closet, service cabinet, oval extension table, five
side chairs and one arm chair, exceptionally high

suit at $542.
Ten-piece suit in walnut or mahogany at $490
comprises buffet, china closet, service cabinet, round
extension table, five side chairs and one arm chair,
all remarkably well made and wonderful value.
Ten-piece suit, variant of the Jacobean style in
walnut, very solidly constructed on novel and indi
vidual lines; chairs have tapestry-covered slip seats;
