"*•• Manager, Christchurch Branch. * Opposite Cobb's Office, Christchurch. Our New Zealand Industries,—Messrs Hallenstein Ikosj- Manufacturers and Wholesale Warehousemen, of the Now Zealand Clothing Factory, following the example of some of the large manufacturers at home and more espeeia'y with a view of preventing the importation of * -English clothing, are opening extensive retail establishments in the largo centres of population. For this purpose they have lately fitted up commodious premises opposite Cobb's office, Cashel street, where the sale of then* manufactures is now •'thrown open direct to the public of •Christchurch. This branch will be under the immediate management of Mr. George Kelly, and under the personal supervision of Mr. B. Hallenstein, the head of the New Zealand firm. Messrs Hallenstein iJros under, the -management of Mr. An•derbon Parted the New Zealand Clothing Factory about three years ago. They commenced on a comparatively small scale, but at present they employ between 300 and 4-jO people They had to overcome many difficulties, and much prejudice, and especially the persistent opposition on tlie part of the larger houses glutting this 'market with imported goods, and no doubt the retailers found it to their advantage to push those in preference to local manufactures. The proprietors of the New ""Zealand Clothing Factory have therefore judiciously: decided to introduce their manufactures direct to the large consuming population of New Zealand, and in order to do soWfectually, they have determined to sell a single garment at the wholesale "price. The selling prine is to be conducted strictly on cash principle, and all goods must be paid, for on delivery, but any article not found suitable may be exchanged, or t. ; . money returned. As - ii i 1 be seen seen from the garmentsexhibited tlie public will iittw be able to choose from fiie largest stoc% ; of. men's, youth's, and , clothing, superior in style aud quality, "'"aidH&t a proportionately lower price to can be imported. But, irrespective of all these advantages, it is 'to the' hiterest oii everyoiie to support an ■ ii-iti-try which employs New Zealand 1-ibour, and is a direct benefit to the but i her, baker, farmer, mechanic, shopkeeper, i .nsrshant, and to everyone in the com } .nuid/y.—Advt. .
