COlLARLESS COATS
SPRING NOVELTY
Style Invented Nine Years Ago
by F. R. Porter Now Being
Taken Up
Oakland Genius Is Working
on Method of Making Salt
Water Fresh

F. r. Porter of Oakland. inventor
promoter and writer. is considerably
elated because the dictators of fash
ion in mems wearing apparel are APP
parently taking up ideas which he or
iginated nearly decade ago. In 1900
Porter created something of stir
among his acauaintances in San Fran
cisco by appearing in collarless and
buttonless coat, for which he claimed
distinct advantages over the garment
with the roll collar and lapel.
Porter labored assiduOusiy to bring
his friends around to his way of think
ing. but was unsuccessful in Inducing
any of them 10 adopt his ideas for
the reformation of dress, and after a
while he gave up trying. After nine
years of patient waiting his reward
came with the arrival of the current
number of a leading New York fashion
publication, which illustrates as one
of the spring novelties for men a col
larless coat, embracing the same ideas
which Porter had unsuccessfully en-
deavored to introduce.
Porter is now devoting much of his
time TO the development of a process
for the economic conversion of the salt
water of the ocean into fresh. He is
following the lines along which nature
works in drawing the waters of the
ocean into the upper atmosphere and
returning them to the earth in the
form of rain. The process on which he
is working is based on principles of
precipita ton instead of condensation.
which method of conversion Is already
in successful use
