TAILORED SUITS FOR IMMEDIATE WEAR
The difference between Lane, Crawfords, fine tailored clothes and cheap "ready made" is the difference between mass pro- duction clothes and work of the British tailors.
The man who wears Lane, Crawford's fine tailored clothes may not realise that his Over- coat or Suit is cut in the latest London Style and tailored by expert tailors—but he does know that he has never before been fitted so well in Hong Kong, or even worn clothes that he liked so much.
We invite you to come in and try on as many suits as you wish, and decide for yourself this question of fit.
Plus Four Suits, Lounge Suits, Grey Flannel Suits,
Raglan and Shaped to figure Style Overcoats
in Browns, Blues, Greys and Lovat mixtures $50 to $80,00

The most striking comment in Its favour is by a writer in the Christian. World. He anid, "I was struck by its simplicity and by the power of its appeal to popular audience. I saw the people go in-talking. lightly and laughingly, very much like the pleasure-seekers who were throng ing the doors of the neighbouring theatres. I saw them come out silent, awed, subdued, with a look of wrapt wonder in their eyes. If anyone had told me that the crucifixion could be enacted on the screen without any offence to devout feeling or fastidious taste, I should have dismissed the sug gestion as wildly impossible."
