Nevertheless" he continued, there
are always some distinct changes, and
while they might not be sufficiently radi-
zeal to be noticeable to the public. they
are most apparent to the trained eye of
the clothing manufacturer and his de-
signing staff and of necessity are closely
watched
"Style may be aptly defined as a COM
bination of something new and something
correct, and before 1 attempt to give
any resume II what the change in styles
for men will be this fall it might be in
teresting to note the origin Of these new
styles; in fact, of all styles for men, for
to be new and yet correct styles for
men must have an authoritative source as
those for women.

'Play Doctor" Pays Omaha Visit

OF the 1903 people busily engaged around
the Gayety theater the last week. either
as a member of the current attraction or
on the regular payroll of the theater in one
capacity or another, the busiest man
is one who was not mentioned on the
program; did not appear in the perform
ance given by The Million Dollar Dolls
company and who in all likelihood may
never see the performance again. But
while he was here associated with the
company, his word was the law, taking
precedence over what the manager OF the
company might have said or the desires
of tho leading members Of the big or
ganization.
Such a position is not only unique, but
TO the uninitiated 1t probably seems i'm
possible. Reference Is made to Thomas

Amusement company TO 'Jump" from
point to point where an ailing show may
be playing and doctor II up until the pub

satisfactory.
Mr.. Grady is a man Of great resource
and in close touch with what audiences
appreciate in a musical burlesque en-
tertainment. He is in years lowering
around the fiftieth milestone; in spirit
and activity he is younger than many
of half his age 1t is his duty to keep
up TO the mark the sixty-eight musical
attractions controlled by the Columbia
Amusement company-one company play
ing in the west may need his services for
but a single song number, while another
organization in Montreal or Providence
may need a general buildng-up process
and more laughs injected into the per-
Torrance.
II is a fact that the performance OF
THE Million Dollar Dolls" as given in
Kansas City the week before coming TO
Omaha was conspicuously draggy and
talky, Notwithstanding that its producers
had been lavish in their expenditures for
wardrobe. scenery and a cast OF COM
petent artists to interpret the lines and
situations as prescribed by the author.
But the entire performance lacked the
punch necessary TO make II "go over
