Very few makes of collars have enough tie space--especially in the larger sizes. The design of W. G.& R. collars is such that every man, whether he wears size 14 or 17, secures ample and uniform tiespace. W. G. & R. collars are the "slide-easy"' kind--a boon to mankind. Come, try them you fellows who have been wearing the other kind. Life is too short to be unhappy. ! | | | | 1 | rr A ® ® ® COLLARS Also W. GC. & R.
