Attorney Sept 1-8 ~ WELCOME Our Wish for a Happy and Pleasant Week Goes Out to Everyone Sent. 8, 1928 DEAR FRIENDS: There is a fourteen year old boy In this town who is very careful of his appearance. Likes to have his clothes in press. And instead of complaining about It, his father and mother encourage him In It. They know that neatness Is a mighty Important thing when a boy starts out In ' life. A slovenly boy won't get very | far. 1 That may bound like preaching, but I don’t mean it that way. I simply want to emphasize the fact that boys in school can keep that spic and span appearance by having their suits cleaned and pressed regularl yhere at Decatur Laundry. Mr. Farr says there are some more boys' suits coming In. More than ever before. Good Idea! □fN ZEEN DECATUR LAUNDRY “The Farr Way” _ k
