Manufacturers and Wholesale Warehousemen, of the New Zealand Ciorhing Factory, following the '.-.::;uunle of some of the large manufacturers ::'! horn.:- and more especialy with a vie" of lire venting the importation of English .-lofhing, are opening extensive 'retail establishments in the large centres of porjuhuion. For this purpose they have lately fitted up commodious premises opposite Cobb's oflico, Cashel street, where the sale "of. their manufactures is now thrown open direct to the public of Christcbureii. 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 NTew Zealand tirm. Messrs Hallenstein i-ios under the management of Mr. Anderson .started the New Zealand Clothing Factory about three years ago. They commenced on a comparatively small scale, hut at present they employ between 300 and -l-o'o people They had to overcome many difficulties, and much prejudice, and «-p«ciuHv 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 lo ivvh these in preference to local manufacture:-'. Tho proprietors of the New Zealand Clothing Factory have therefore judiciously decided to introduce their iv.tnmi'aeturosdirect to thelarge consuming population of New Zealand, and in order to do so effectually, they have determined to yell a single garment at the wholesale price. The" selling price is to be conducted strictly on casli principle, and all £ooris must be paid for on delivery, but any article not- found suitable may be c-changed, or t*._ money returned. As wiil be seen seen from thegarmentsexhibited the public will now be able to choose from The largest stock of men's, youth's, and boys' clothing, superior in style and quality, anil 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' cher, baker, farmer, mechanic, shopkeeper, .no rah ant, and to everyone in the community. —Advt.
