I We take great pleasure in introducing to you this week jjj
The Morvogra.m of NatiorvaJ Good ClotKes
IT begins tomorrow and some people call it “Fashion week.” It is the latest national institution, and a very worthy one. |||
Like “Paint-up week” and such events, “Dress-up week” is intended to stir things up; give a man a few thoughts about
his duty to himself and his associates. H
The purpose of “Dress-up week” is to remind you that maybe you need new clothes; that maybe you ought to take
more interest in your appearance; that maybe your wife and children are tired of that old suit; that the new spring jjj
clothes are ready for you.
Now don’t say to yourself, “I am a practical business man, no time for fussing about clothes.” If you feel that way, jli
look around at some of the other practical business men of this town; see if some of them don’t look more business-like be- jjj
cause they do “fuss” a little about clothes. jjj
The day has gone by when men are ashamed to dress well; nowdays we find that most all ages like the confidence |jj
given by wearing a well cut, smart looking suit or overcoat. jjj
So take account of stock; look over the “stand-bys” and see if they haven’t stood by you too long. j!j
p; Take a little interest in the “dress-up” idea; we’re ready to help you when you do. fjjj
