is not just a catch phrase but an actual statement of our policy... Our prices have been reduced all round: hats are down by $1.50 to $2.50 each. Summit Collars down by a dollar a dozen, Sum- mit Dress Shirts show at least a dollar reduction, and so on throughout the entire stock; and in no instance is quality sacrificed.

We do not ask you to believe that we can adjust prices to every fractional fluctuation, but we have endeavoured to strike a liberal average on which to base our current prices.
