| THEMA | Firmendarstellung |
| TEXT | Enterprise, coupled with the ever necessary practical knowledge of a business, are the two principal requisites to the rapid growth and permanent success of any trade, and it is an agreeable task to chronicle the flattering prospects of Messrs. Stern Bros. & Falk, No. 426 Broome Street, judged upon the above basis. This house was established in 1881 by the present proprietors for the manufacture of boys' and children's clothing, and since ita foundation has built up a large and prosperous trade, extending throughout the United States and Canada. The trade in this line has grown to be a distinct branch of business, and active competition has compelled manufacturers to exercise a great degree of care and taste in the make up, out and style of these garments, and very different articles are now produced from those known to the trade fifteen years ago. A few years after the civil war, the volume of business transacted in boys' and children's clothing was small, the goods handled were made of very poor materials, badly cut, worse made, and were manufactured to sell rather than wear. An inspection of the stock made by Messrs. Stern Bros. & Falk reveals the fact that they are using the finest productions of American and foreign woollen mills, employing the most skilful designers, and that their high priced goods are made up in every particular, with the same skill, care aod attention which is bestowed on the same class of goods by merchant tailors to order. The premises occupied are very ipacions and commodious and comprise four floors, admirably arranged and equipped with every appliance and convenience for the prosecution of the business, em- ployment being provided for one hundred and thirty-five skilled and experienced operatives. The individual members of this flourishing firm are Messrs. H. B. and E. Stern and A. B. Falk, who have made this business a life study, and there are few at present engaged in the trade whose active experience has been greater or whose knowledge is more comprehensive with regard to the wants and requirements of boys' and children's clothing. Personally, they are highly esteemed by the community for then-geniality of disposition and sterling integrity, and justly merit the success which they have obtained by their ability, perseverance and energy. |
