ENCOURAGE LOCAL INDUSTRY. -XT O W OPE N—NEW ZTCAJ_N LAND CLOTHING FACTORY'S RETAIL BRANCHES— CmusTOHunoH, Tima.hu, Oamaru, DUNEDIN, AND WELLINGTON. » MEN'S, YOUTHS' and BOYS' CLOTHING Superior in Style to Imported Goods. A Single Gaiwent at Wholesale Price. GEORGE KELLY, Manager, Christchureh Branch. Opposite Cobb's Office, Christchurch. Oun New" Zealand Industries.—Messrs Hallenstein Bros, Manufacturers and .Wholesale Warehousemen, of • the New Zealand Clothing Factory, following the example of some of the large manufacturers at home and more- especialy with a view of preventing the importation _of English clothing, are opening extensive retail establishments in the large centres of population. For this purpose they have lately fitted up commodious premises opposite Cobb's office, Cashel street, where the sale of their manufactures is now thrown open direct to the public of Christchurrh. 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 Bros under the management of Mr. Anderson started the New Zealand Clothing Factory about three years ago. Tl icy commenced on a comparatively small scale, but at present they employ between 300 and 400 people They had to overcome many difficulties, and much prejudice, and especially the persistent opposition; on the part of; the larger houses glutting this market with imported goods, and no doubt the retailers found it to their advantage to push these in preference to local manufactures. The proprietors of -the New Zealand Clothing Factory have therefore judiciously decided to introduce their manufactliresdirect to tlielarge consuming population.of. New Zealand, and in order to do so effectually, they have determined to sell a single garment at the wholesale price. The selling price is to be conducted strictly on cash /.principle, and all goods must be paid delivery, but any article no* -found suitable may be exchanged, or tL. /uoney returned. As will be seen seen from the gavmentsexhibited the public will now" he able to choose from the largest stock of men's, youth's, and boys' clothing, superior in style and quality, nml at a proportionately lower price to anything that can be imported. But, irrespective of all these advantages, it is to the interest of everyone to support an industry which employs New Zealand labour, and is a direct benefit to the but 15 cher, baker, fanner, mechanic, shopkeeper, ai3reliant, and to everyone in the community.—Advt.
