Jan. 12, 1923 DEAR FRIENDS: A felt hat came in the other day. It had seen hard service and looked the part. But when it was ready for delivery,, it looked Hke a new one. ThaH customer will get another year’s service for the price of cleaning. Fair enough! We’ve been doing quite a lot of hat work lately. Nobody can afford to wear a dirty hat, and some folks feel that thoy can’t afford to buy a new one. The moral is plain. Call 134 and say you want your old hat cleaned. Mr. Farr and his crew of helpers win do the rest. BEN ZEEN. DECATUR LAUNDRY “The Farr Way”
