YOUR EANTER STROLL
Easter—what a world of meaning is wrapped
up in this little word. The music, the flowers, the
birds, and the bright warm sunshine when Spring
bursts forth in its beautiful array of warmth and
color—the formal occasion for donning the light,
bright raiment of Spring.
What a satisfaction to be one of those who will
have that conscious feeling of being well dressed on
this day, of having that poise and self satisfaction
that can come only to the woman who knows that )
her costume is distinctive.
j The Women’s Store is full of those necessities
to make the joy of Easter complete, from the suit, ;
coat or dress down to those little accessories that
add the finishing touch of completeness to the cos-
tume—and every article standing as distinctive in
its own class.
May we assist you in completing your costume
for this gala day?
