The Price, As Slim
As The Suit
TO look at Adler’s Colle
gian Clothes, you might
think they are a little out
side of your purse-range—but
“appearances are deceitful.”
Just you take a look at their
price-tag and you’ll see that
they are within your reach.
You were probably puzzled
because there’s more style, fab
ric and workmanship-value
crowded into every suit or
overcoat of
ADLER’S
Collegian Clothes
than into others at the price. '
It’s a logical mistake. ^
