Priced 85/THIS year the LYNX has excelled itself to give you the finest range of English Worsteds and West of England cloths ever shown in New Zealand in ready-to-put-on suits. “In 51 sizes LYNX suits fit” is no idle claim, because with our true-to-life fittings we are continually pleasing people who have never worn a ready-to-put-on suit in their lives. The cloths grow better in pattern and quality; in linings, inter-linings, and trimmings we get the quality higher season by season, while in the actual cutting and making many small improvements are constantly being embodied—trifles in themselves, perhaps, but “Trifles make perfection and perfection is no trifle,” as one of the world’s great men once said. In Navy Serge, always our most popular suit, we offer you two qualities at £6/15/- and £7/15/- respectively. The former is a half-bred wool, fadeless indigo dye and London shrunk, while the latter is a pure merino wool, also fadeless indigo dye and London shrunk. This £7/15/- suit is, we believe, without an equal in quality and value, and we speak after four years’ selling experience.
