SMARTNESS

MR. SAM IRWIN’S AMBITION. To make Wanganui a city of smartlydressed men is the ambition of Sam Irwin, the Mercer, of 149 Victoria Avenue, and he has set out to accomplish his aim by bringing under the no lice of his fellow citizens the complete range of men’s apparel at wonderiuliy cheap prices that iiis shop contains. His goods are not omy seasonably priced, but they aye also smart, and any man who wears a Sam Irwin hat, u Sam Irwin tie, a Sam Irwin shirt, or a Sam Irwin suit, can walk the town with that air of assurance and distinction that comes from knowing oneself to bo well-dressed in every tail“Why wear a seedy-looking hat,” says Mr. Irwin, “with a good suit of clothes. Or, Why spoil your appearance with an old fashioned collar. A nobby tie will often make the difference between seeming ordinary or dressy.” To look smart is a great asset to the businessman, the young man-about-town, and the sportsman, and it costs no more, but it gives an impression of being well-to-do and imparts confidence, respect and admiration to all beholders. To carry out his ambition Sam Irwin carries a full range of the choicest ties and fancy socks. In shirts he has the latest styles in neglige an tennis shapes in silk, lie stocks a full range of smart cotton shirts in every design at all prices from 7/6 to 10/6. Hats are his speciality, and Stetsons, Tress Co.’s, Bursalino’s, Victor Jay’s, and others may be selected from his wonderful array of headwear. The man who has left the purchasing of his suit to the last minute Sam Irwin can fix on the spot in Lynx Brand or in the famous Sincerity suit. He also has a line of guaranteed navy serge suits for the man who likes something extra neat —in fact, from head to foot, from singlet to raincoat, Sam Irwin can dress a man to perfection. See a smart, spruce, “toney” looking man, and you’ll know him to be a customer of Sam Irwin.
