Before I tell you that, mister Hardison, suppose 49 00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:19.319 I give. 50 00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:21.199 You a few moments to see a few words about 51 00:02:21.199 --> 00:02:23.400 our sponsor's most ethimable croup. 52 00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:25.840 Thank you, doctor Watson. As you put it, sir, it 53 00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:29.280 is indeed an estimable product sour steam. May I say that, 54 00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:33.680 beginning in nineteen forty eight, over one thousand leading stores 55 00:02:33.800 --> 00:02:37.639 from coast to coast are clipper craft dealers. To be exact, 56 00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:42.560 there are ten hundred thirty six such distinguished establishments. Those 57 00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:45.439 leading stores across the country are, of course, the key 58 00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:48.360 to the amazing value so unique to clipper Craft clothes. 59 00:02:48.879 --> 00:02:52.039 The ten hundred thirty six leading stores are part of 60 00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:55.560 the famous clipper Craft Plan. In this plan, their buying 61 00:02:55.599 --> 00:02:59.879 power is concentrated to affect tremendous savings in manufacturing and distribution, 62 00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:04.000 conscious savings which are all boors. That's why truly fine 63 00:03:04.039 --> 00:03:07.120 clipper Craft suits are only forty and forty five dollars, 64 00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:10.360 Why clipper craft top coats and overcoats are only forty 65 00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:14.759 dollars and sports jackets only twenty six fifty clipper Craft 66 00:03:14.800 --> 00:03:17.039 values are truly out of this world. 67 00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:17.840 Compare them with. 68 00:03:17.879 --> 00:03:28.639 Clothes selling for many dollars more. And now, doctor Watson, 69 00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:31.639 let's get back to the story of the Masterine Stone. Yes, 70 00:03:32.120 --> 00:03:35.599 let me see where was I?
