What is claimed is: 1. A garment hanger, comprising: a cross member; a hook extending up from said cross member; and a web extending between the hook and the cross member, said web defining an edge and said edge defining a rib, said rib having a beveled portion, wherein said web defines a notch adjacent to said beveled portion of said rib and adjacent to one of said hook and said cross member. 2. The hanger according to claim 1, wherein: said notch is adjacent to said hook. 3. The hanger according to claim 1, wherein: said notch is adjacent to said cross member. 4. The hanger according to claim 1, further comprising: a removable indicator having internal means for engaging said rib. 5. The hanger according to claim 1, wherein: said rib has two ends, said beveled portion being at one end and the other end being thickened with a thinner portion between said ends. 6. The hanger according to claim 1, wherein: said web further defines a valley adjacent to said rib, and a plateau adjacent to said valley. 7. A garment hanger comprising: a cross member; a hook extending up from said cross member; and a web extending between the hook and the cross member, said web defining an edge and said edge defining a rib, said rib having a beveled portion, wherein said web further defines a valley adjacent to said rib, and a plateau adjacent to said valley and said web defines a ramp between said valley and said plateau. 8. The hanger according to claim 1, wherein: said hook has a vertical component which is adjacent said notch. 9. The hanger according to claim 4, wherein: said internal means include a pair of fingers. 10. The hanger according to claim 9, wherein: said indicator is substantially U-shaped with inwardly turned ends. 11. The hanger according to claim 10, wherein: said web further defines a valley adjacent to said rib, a plateau adjacent to said valley, and a ramp between said valley and said plateau, and said indicator fingers embrace said rib and said inwardly turned ends abut said ramp. 12. A method of removing an indicator from a web on a garment hanger having a hook and a cross member with the web extending therebetween, the web defining an edge, and said edge defining a rib and a notch adjacent the rib, the method comprising: inserting a tool or one's fingernail into a space between the indicator and the hook or cross member and into the notch in the web, leveraging the indicator away from the hook or cross member and lifting it up and off the web. 13. The method according to claim 12, wherein: the notch is adjacent the hook. 14. The method according to claim 12, wherein: the rib has a beveled portion adjacent the notch. 15. The method according to claim 12, wherein: the notch is adjacent the cross member. 16. A method of attaching an indicator to a web on a garment hanger, said indicator being substantially U-shaped with a base and two legs, said legs having inwardly extending fingers and distal edges, said garment hanger having a hook and a cross member with the web extending therebetween, the web defining an edge and a valley adjacent the edge, and said edge defining a rib, the rib having a beveled portion and a notch adjacent the beveled portion of the rib and adjacent one of the hook and the cross member, said method comprising: attaching the indicator to the web by placing the legs at an end of the indicator over the notch with the indicator angled relative to the rib; and pushing the indicator toward the valley such that the distal edges of the legs of the indicator pass over the said rib, followed by the fingers such that the fingers are locked by the rib. 17. The method according to claim 16, wherein: said web includes a ramp adjacent the valley, and when said indicator is pushed toward the valley, the distal edges of the legs abut the ramp. 18. The method according to claim 16, wherein: when said fingers pass over said rib, an audible sound is made. 19. A garment hanger, comprising: a cross member; a hook extending up from said cross member; and a web extending between the hook and the cross member, said web defining an edge, said edge defining a rib having a long axis, said rib having a beveled portion, said beveled portion tapering down in height as it extends along said long axis. 20. A garment hanger according to claim 19, wherein: said beveled portion of said rib tapers down in width as it extends along said long axis.
