THE BIG WHEEL STOPS AT 8.30 TO-MORROW NIGHT
Have you seen the big revolving wheel in Flaekson’s window? On this wheel a piece of navy serge as used in Flackson’s £6 6s made-to-measure suits is fixed. With every revolution of the wheel that piece of serge is first soaked in sea water-—then it passes through the heat ray from an electric radiator, the wind from an electric fan and the light ray from a powerful spot light. Through salt water—heat—wind—light—THßEE TIMES EVERT MINUTE. The wheel was set in motion last Thursday at 3 p.m. It has been going for over twelve hours a day ever since. The wheel has revolved THOUSANDS OF TIMES. How is the serge standing up to the test? Come and see. At 8.30 tomorrow evening the serge will be removed from the wheel, rinsed in fresh water and pressed dry in the window. Come and see the result.—THE HOUSE OF FLACKSON, LTD KARANGAHAPE ROAD.—2I.
