Many OF the buyers for the eXclu-

partment stores in this city, have
often made the complaint thai Wash
ingtonians were almost invariably a
year behind the times in choosing
garments. Lately, they have been
about six months behind. and it is
just this six months slowness which
accounts for the fact that our stores
are displaying the right fashions to-

the large American centers Of trade
are just six months too far ahead.
