REID, Telephone 577 One shows "gap' Other fits close You know, by experience, that the ordinary collar soon spreads and shows an unsightly "gap" at the top. On the other hand, a : W. G. & R. collar retains its close fit for the following reasons; -- 1st--Because the inside buttophole (see 1 in illustration) is a fraction of an inch higher than the outside buttonhole. THis makes the collar , 'button act as a lever and exert a steady upward pressure on the hook end (see 3) making a tight lock at the top<of, the collar. 2nd--Because it has our, "Slip On" buttonhole (see 2) on the outside tab. Thus, when button- ing the outside tab, the collar slides easily into place, the post of the collar button coming to the top of the "Slip On" buttonhole, making it impossible for the collar to spread. It mast stay close at the top. 5 t These exclusive features of W. G. & R. collars arg sure to be appreciated bY you and other particular dressers. o\ o COLLARS Also W. G. & R.
