Mf's Fine SUITS I $24.50 and $31.50
With Extra Trousers) (0.-mu mo p,.)
Ordinary trade conditions would render these values impossible. However, a prominent manufacturer, who had
contributed to our stock for years, caught some of our enthusiasm when we told him of our plans for this Sale, and
promised to have ready for us the greatest Clothing values Philadelphia men have known since before the war. Here
are two extraordinary groups of men's Suits. They are in the season's newest correct styles for men and young men.
Tailored with exacting care, of all-wool serges, worsteds, herringbones, tweeds, pencil stripes and neat mixtures. The
normal price reduction in Men's Clothing as compared to 1920 is about one-third. THESE SUITS, HOWEVER, ARE
MARKED AT ABOUT ONE-HALF 1920 PRICES. And there are two pairs of trousers with every suit almost double
wear. Men would be glad to get such Suits at these prices with but one pair of trousers. They are $21.50 and $31.50
