IS IT WORTH NOTING HAT Van Kessel's Women and Men' ® r^~ J Suits and. Overcoats were never better than they are today, in spite of the pressure in the wool market, which seetxis to have squeezed out of so many things whatever quality they possessed. There- ( fore, one good working definition of the word service as used by Van Kessel, is the fact that while these good stocks are here at his disposal, no woman or man need pay more for a new suit or overcoat than they paid last year or the year before.
