CLOTHES BUYER \ ' v ; ?.? ;4. v r '-??V V Dear Sir: ' It jvould be a good thing if all business were done on the basis of mutual benefit way. That's the way we're trying to do our business. When we can sell a customer of ours a suit made by Hart Schaffner 6c Marx we get as much satisfaction out of knowing how good clothes are for him as wc get out of the profit we make on the sale. It's pleasant for any of us, in business, or in any other work we do, to have that sense of having served somebody well, in addition to having "made something" for ourselves. Every Hart Schaffner & Marx garment we ' *n'*' / ? sell adds to that feeling. They're clothes that men ought to buy for their own good, not simply because we want to sell the clothes. You'll understand this better when you see the goods. Yours truly, Baruch-Nettles Company. Season's Styles in Millinery...
