The opening display of spring styles
for men are now 10 be seen in the
windows of the Salt Lake establish
ments. The clothiers have received an
advance stock, but they promise even
a much fuller line of spring styles in
a couple OF weeks.
This is only a smattering Of the
goods we have coming" remarked the
manager of one of the largest furnish
ing establishments yesterday afternoon
These are good samples Of the nObby
patterns, but the richness of the spring
styles cannot be shown up until the
fun line comes in The fine warm
weather during the past two weeks has
made the people anxious to shed their
winter garments-but there is plenty Of
time yet"
Some few changes have been made in
the spring styles both in cut and pat
terms There are several colorS and
mixtures that are predOminating and it
is only a matter OF taste. The tropical
grays I'm WOrsted and cheviots, with
more white than black in the mixture,
seem to be the fad. The same goods in
wide stripes are also shown extensively
in the patterns Solid brown, which
had the run in the fall suits, will be
worn again this spring, but not so
much as last fail. The plain blue ser
Ges and black unfinished wOrsted goods
are also holding their own.

The coats are made with wide con-
cave shoulders fitting closely around
the collar. The skirt hangs loose from
the arms and gives a comfortable eff
feet AS different from the fall and
winter styles the one striking feature
il the lapels. They are made wide and
long and give a. pretty effect with the
loose skirt. The length OF the coats is
made from Twenty-Five to thirty-two
inches in proportion to the sizes. which
IS much longer than the fall styles
The dOuble-breasted three button
coats are in larger display than the
single breasted three and four button
coats, but both are pronounced by the
1ailors as proper for spring wear. The
effect of the loose garment shows up
better in the double breasted coats and
the clothiers think it viii be the pre-
dominating style. The vests are the
same as last fails styles without the
lapel, and the bottoms are somewhat
narrower The top coats are cut in
the same style and the same effect as
The suits. Tan and dark gray are the
prevailing cOlOrs.
Tan and Dark Gray Prevailing CoTors.
This style of garments said
clothier yesterday, gives a cOmfor-
table easy appearance after wearing
the heavy winter clothes. And one
beauty OF it is it really makes one COM
Portable 10 wear them. There IS not
too much cloth in the coat or trousers
and it makes them hang We'll"
Fancy Vests Known as "Londons."
There is but one cut Of fancy vests
to wear this spring and they are called
"LOndOns." They are cut low in the
neck but with a wide lap, which folds
over and fits neat and snug around the
collar There are no lapels on the vest
and the edges are trimmed with white
and cream braid. The lap at the bot
tom Of the vest is also long and wide.
In colorS they run in the gray mixtures
and light browns. The white vests
are also popular Double breasted
vests are being shown extensively with
wide lapels and are to be worn with
double-breasted coats. These are more
popular in the white with raised silk
figures.
The change in spring styles Of col
lars is marked. The band around the
neck is larger than the top of the col
lar. 1t is a plain wing collar but a l6
size at the band is about q 10 size
around the top. This makes the collar
fit in close around the throat and also
fits the neck better.
The wide fOur-in- hand scarf is the
only tie for spring. They are to be had
in various colorS and shades and there
is extreme color. Changeable
browns and light lowered mixtures in
black and white are the SWEETEST things.
The four-in-hand is the only tie that
