T one time any man who wo*re "hand-me-down"
'clothing was socially tabu. The ready-made clothing
business was in the hands of the bashi-bazouks.
Haggle and barter were supreme and the methods of booth
and bazaar reigned.
Behdld however when things get bad enough they cure
themselves.
J[ The Retail Clothing Business was .the first to adopt the
One -Price System.
q This means truth in business. Quality and fit are guaranteed,
and behold now, ready-to-wear clothes represent in a busines
way, the 'very acme of honesty, directness, simplicity and
right intent.
q We live in a time when economy is prized. The bounders.
who throw money to the sparrows are not in our class.
Commonsense men, no matter, how much money they make
expect their money's worth when they buy clothing.
q When you buy •,Fit -Rite Tailored Clothes you will find
Something that not only fits your form., but fits your pocket
book:
(1[ The name Fit -Rite stands for style, also it stands for quality.
It -mirrors commonsense, and the, idea of industry., economy,
fficiency,
