' '/ . \ - ?age Ten THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Wives Welcome No-Button Work Shirt That Saves Hours Of Care! Newest work-saver for homemakers is the modem, buttonless work shirt now being sold in all reputable stores earning work clothing and it gives greater freedom from mending and laundering than has been possible with the conventional button-equipped shirts. Housewives who have faced regular button repair work over the rears are finding these new shirts eliminate many laundering, iron ing, and button-replacement problems. Gripper snap fasteners instead of buttons are on the shirt front and cuffs. Metal snap fasteners do not •crack or chip and, of course, button holes with their usual problems of wearing and fraying are elim inated completely. These new work shirts stay cleaner in use because the wearer does not have to fumble all the way up the front with soiled hands to get such a shirt open. The snap fasteners hold firm and sure for the life of the shirt, yet it takes just a sudden tug to open the shirt all the way. This is considered an important safety feature for men working around moving machinery. If the shirt snags on something, it would give way rather than pull the man toward danger.
