WE
here at St. Clair Furs
do not price furs by the
month. 2 months ago the papers were
saturated with August Fur Sales ad-
vertisements—in which it was implied
that prices
would never
again be so low
Then weeks ago
(in September)
you were prom-
is ed "Mighty
September Sav-
ings on Furs"
. . . and now the
newspaper col-
Laurence O'Larry
umns are again
"Just Loaded With Fur Bargains !"
But we at St. Clair Furs refuse to
beat the drum for monthly fur sales.
We don't care what month it is—.
August, September, October—we
care even less how much wholesale
prices have advanced.
20 Years of Service
Rewarded by Odessa
IT HAS
been our pru-
dent policy to
purchase when prices were at their
lowest . . . and we price them that
way to you. Our fur-buying experts
went into the big fur markets to seek
out the finest pelts . . . to buy them.
for spot cash at rock-bottom prices.
We got the pick of the crop in fine
mink, in gorgeous persians, in seals,
in beaver, in martins . . . yes, even in
sables . . . fantastically beautiful furs
at amazingly- low costs because we
could buy in such huge quantities.
We had them made up into lovely
furs by our topflight staff . . . fur
fashion creators and stylists whose
ingenuity and genius is recognized
all over the nation . . . made up in a
shop under our direct supervision on
the premises. Here, in our own fur
factory, where top quality and top
efficiency combine to save production
costs. We take the time required to
choose the raw pelts that go into the
manufacturing of lovely fur gar-
ments. We never rush the painstak-
ing process of matching and design-
ing and patterning. No wonder the
women who really know furs quickly
recognize that we have the most
beautiful furs in the world.
Honoring his 20 years of de-
voted service to the Odessa
Progressive Aid Society, Albert
Wineman was given a surprise
birthday party Sept. 30 at the
Halevy Music Center.

to, and a cousin of the family,
dedicated s e v -
-eral songs to
M r Wineman,
and J. B. Or-
mond served as
:master of cere-
monies. As a
tribute to his
activities in
Odessa, 10 years
of which he
A. Wineman served as treas-
urer, Mr. Wineman and his wife
Laura had their names in-
scribed in the Israel Golden
Book.
The Winemans have resided
in Detroit since 1910. They have
two sons, David, a consultant
on the Merrill Palmer staff and
author of a child psychology
textbook, and Saul, who is

Mrs. Lerner Guest
Here; Her Husband's
Book Now Available
The creative poetic works of
the late Yakov Lerner are arous-
ing new interest in Hebraist
circles through the circulation
of a book of his poems, pub-
lished posthumously in Israel
and brought to this country by
his widow, Mrs. Malka Lerner of
Tel Aviv.
Mrs. Lerner, guest of Mr. and
Mrs. Jacob Winokur of 3002 Tux-
edo, plans to remain here until
December and during that time
hopes to interest a large number
of people in the Lerner book.
She is the sister-in-law of Mrs.
Winokur.
Yakov Lerner died in Europe
30 years ago, at the age 30. He
had already gained popularity
for his writings and it was pre-
dicted that he would rise to
high rank in Jewish literary
circles. After his death Mrs.
Lerner and her family settled in
Israel where they resided for'the
.last 26 years. Her son, Aryeh, is
a writer for the Hebrew daily
Davar.
The Lerner book is available
here from Mrs. Lerner. Detroit
Hebraists are planning to ad-
vance sales of the book and to
arrange for a special evening for
Mrs. Lerner.
Visiting nurses make 147,588
calls-on the sick in Metropolitan
Detroit annually.

WHEN
you walk into
our fur salons
at 1567 Broadway and see these fab-
ulous fur creations you'll thrill to
their luscious brilliance, the sheen,
the softness and the glowing, gleam-
ing beauty of every coat or cape,
jacket or stole. And you'll be even
more thrilled by the prices . . . we
don't hold with the old-fashioned
idea of some furriers that they must
make a 75%-to-100% profit on every
piece. We ' want Detroit's lovely
women to wear and enjoy our ele-
gant furs. To this end we've priced
our marvelous furs at an unbeliev-
ably low profit markup. That's why
we have no trouble reaching a sales
volume large enough to make high
quality and low prices pay off.
SOM E
day soon, when
you're down this
way, drop in at 1567 Broadway and
let me show you some of these fas-
cinating fur pieces. Right now we
have the loveliest collection of St.
Clair Originals (for every pocket-
book) in our history.
