You want to be .well garbed on the beach. It is here that one is scrutinized. It is on the beach that good taste is more evident than anywhere else. The styles and the colors for this year were never more attractive. They are different some of them really audacious ! For instance, there is the Shimmy model a departure from the customary styles of the past few years. To say the "Shimmy" is admirable is putting it very mildly. But there are other styles that are just as winning as the "Shimmy." For either men or women we have them in every conceivable color and style, and fashioned from the finest woolens.

They are the well known Tri-Tex and Jantzen makes, such as you see advertised in all the leading magazines. They are guaranteed as to material and color and will give the maximum of service as well as comfort. Resolve to get out into the open this summer -start early, and get your Bathing Suit NOW, so you will have it all ready when the next sweltering day arrives. We invite you to look over the largest stock of the best known makes in this section of the state.
