name known and sought after by
millions of women.
We knew women's high regard for
the name and weaving of Pepperell,
so we got the Preferred Shirt Com-
pany to tailor this fine broadcloth
by Pepperell into a superior shirt.
It is a triumph! The foremost
cotton weavers of the country have
produced a shirt which women can
proudly buy for their husbands.
There is a choice of smart, new
colors. There are collar-attached and
neckband style models. And the neat
Cellophane wrap on each shirt bears
the famous Pepperell label.

One way — and not a new way, either — is to make a
budget Put down, week by week, the money that
comes in. Put down beside it, week by week, the money
that goes out So much for food, so much for clothing,
so much for rent. So much for giving, and for luxuries.
It won’t always be easy, of course, to stay within the
•
budget. That’s where advertising helps you. Adver-
t
tisements in this newspaper tell you how much rugs,
butter, breakfast foods, dishes, homes, automobiles
will cost, before you go shopping! They point out ways
to save money. They show you how to cut a little here,

pel. Decorated in modern style, the
chapel boasts a revolving altar divid-
ed into three sections, for Protest-
atant, Catholic and Jewish service
adaptation.
A modern laundry, immaculate kit-
chens and dining rooms occupy the
third floor, part of which is railed off
as a balcony for the chapel. The kit-
chens are equipped in a manner equal
to the most up to date hotel.
Housing quarters occupy from the
third to the tenth floor. Each floor
is sixteen rooms — not cells. The fur-
nishings of these rooms are all fix-
tures. The old style wall bunk has
been discarded in favor of a modern-
istic bed. Each roopis has three cloth-
es hangers. Unbreakable mirrors of
steel are securely fastened to the

cold water adorns a corner of each
room.

Even the costumes tor be worn by
the erring ones who will sojourn in
this novel house of detention are a
departure from the hideous ensemble

Towering twelve stories above the famous sidewalks of New York, the new House of Deteation for
