MODERN METHODS ELIMINATE WASTE AND SAVE MONEY. We told you in our last cbat about the bad conditions and wasteful methods in our workroom when we started to make changes, reduce costs, and give the public a first-class tailored job at a low price. We found from calculations made that the lack of system was costing something l'rke 50 per cent, jj That had to be added to the cost i of the suits. The public had to S pay. I I 'We first of all swept out all the | old machinery and put in electric fj power. Gone were the evil old 8 coke stoves and smelly fire-irons. We systematized the room. The machinists were given a* special place and told that they would in future be expected to do nothing else but machining. The same I with the pressers, and the table I hands. «The work was special- | ised, every man and every woman 1 to bis or her job; no getting up and dodging no tumbling over one another. Order reigned, and not chaos. The work was specialised into three natural divisions—Pressing, Machining and Table Work, where all the sewing is done. The cutting and preparing was ' the boss's job. Here nothing was left to chance; everything was provided for; each job was prepared—linings, pockets, sleeves, etc., all were there at hand. So the job went to the workroom, where it passed from hand to hand, eaoh one doing each one's little bit until the job was completed. Just the Ford car mass I production methods adapted to tailoring conditions. At every stage the job was inspected and supervised. But there is a story alone in this. We will tell it here in a few days. We will also show how thorough is all our work and that the inference made by our jealous competitors at the Arbitration Court in N.P. last week that our goods are slops is all moonshine—and worse. WE STAND FOR QUALITY ALL THE TIME, and will prove our statement right up to the hilt. We will also prove that old methods entail unnecessarily heavy charges for clothes.
