School starts with the ring of the bell. How's the
Boy's Clothes ? If there is anything in the world that
will make going to school easy for the average boy, it's
a new suit. We have studied the school suit problem
from the parents' side as well as from the store stand-
point. We find that the Lion Brand fills a long felt
want—made from durable Tweeds, well lined and well
made—Coats have French facings—Knickers double
seats and double knees—Outwears two ordinary suits,
and the price is very. low. Once a Customer, always a
Customer. We are the selling agents in this place.
