Never Did A
$1.00 Buy So Much
You get more dry cleaning value for your money now
than ever before. There's a reason for this. We are
constantly adding newer and more modern equipment
to better handle our increasing volume of business. The
service already good, is being constantly improved. Now,
having a garment dry cleaned means more than it used
to mean. It means more real renewal service. In .just
one man's suit you find a dozen points to show how
thorough and careful is this dry cleaning.
J
Notice how the shoulders are moulded, how neatly
the collar fits, how carefully the lapels are rolled. Then
the trousers, see how cuffs and pockets lie smooth, how
the knee bagginess has been taken eut to make them
hang straight. And they have a long-lived crease. The
fabric has regained a fresh, live color, is clean through
and through. Everything about that suit—the invig
orated tone of the cloth—the molded shapeliness—
makes you proud to be seen in it. Yes—you get more
dry cleaning and better dry cleaning for your money,
at the WHITEWAY, than ever before.
MEN’S SUITS ARE.$1.00
Why not call us today? A service man will
promptly call.

THINKING OF
CHRISTMAS
It’s none too early to plan for Christ
mas. This store is already full of magnifi
cent gifts. A good plan is to select now,
make a small payment down, a dollar or
more a week, and when Christmas comes
you will own a good Watch, Ring or other
piece of Jewelry and not miss the*money.
Hundreds did this last year and were de
lighted with the plan. Come in, make your
selection, and start paying now. And, re
member, we are never undersold on qual
ity goods.
