They're both such pleasant thoughts one might
think of each as existing for the other though g
we are not so sure of Spring. But we do know
that these new petticoats were designed for Spring m
and is durable too even though they do seem so jfj
very sheer. ' j
True-to general form many of themare delicately g
- tinted while others follow in the footsteps of Paris- I
ian whims and flaunt colors that seem almost vivid j
. when associated with underthings. ; But that's the g
vogue-r-and these are new!.- Wk
We have arranged a special display to simplify your g
selection and we are giving a special price of
$2.95 on all petticoats. jj

INSPECTIONS PER CAR
The faithfulness of performance so
universally remarked in Dadge
Brothers Motor Cars is due in no
small part to the thoroughness with
-which each unit is inspected during the
process of manufacture and assembly.
. A trained staff of 1100 experts is employed
in this work alone and approximately
.5285 innpections are made on each car.
So exC'.lng and rigid are the standards
applied to these inspections that
the slightest variation either in
workmanship or material is sufficient
cause for immediate rejection.
DodgeBrothersarealmostover-scrupulous
in their constant aim 1 1 make each car as
sound and perfect as is humanly possible..
