What Boys Will Wear

The double breasted suit that has made strained efforts to keep to the front is supplanted altogether by the Norfolk. It is Norfolks first, last and all the time-nothing but Norfolks in almost as many variations as there are boys to wear them. 2
 And foremost amongst the many vari- ations of Norfolks comes the inverted plaited style. This model cannot be claimed as an origination of this spring for it set in its appearance at an earlier stage. But it has been worked out and perfected until it promises to be the most popular style for spring.
 The inverted plaited Norfolk is sen. sible idea that tailors up gracefully, fol lowing more the lines of the body. It is far more serviceable than the box paited Norfolk, inasmnch as it is moi 50 much exposed and is not so apt to be
Arizona republican., 1915-03-14

torn by the boy, whom we all know to be regular demon on his clothes. ..
 The box plaited Norfolk is not "out by any means. It is very tidy style that pleases both the boy and hls parents. It is shown with attached and detached belts in many different colors and pattern ideas.
 A clever Norfolk model is the small plaited idea that resembles somewhat the thousand plaited shirts. They are sure to appeal to youngsters who are fond of novel styles. They are dressy and attractive and are excellent styles for school wear.
 There is practically no change in boys trousers this season. Full and roomy Knickerbockers will again be worn by most of the youngsters. They are pleasing styles and give the loose and easy effect that boys like.
 Many manufacturers predicted the return of the straight pant last fall They were shown, but not to great ex tent, and their chance of gaining theil old-time popularity this spring seems even more slight than in the fall season
 Most all boys suits shown by tht leading clothiers this spring have two pairs of trousers. They practically mean a double life for the suit, as mos' boys wear out their trousers just about l twice as fast as their coats.
Arizona republican., 1915-03-14

Viewing an advance display of boys 7 clothing this season is a genuine pleas ure-indeed pleasant revelation for any one interested in the nicetie5 of dress for little fellows. It is a pleasure that no proud mother or father should miss-a glance at the spring displays should suggest many valuable hints. Perhaps never before in the annals of the boys clothing industry have so many pleasing styles been originated. While the changes this spring are not radical, they have yet accomplished more graceful and typical boyish lines.
 Manufacturers have busied themselves designing novelties that promise to be sensations. For juniors they have ere ated the neatest effects shown for many seasons. For older boys, those that range in age from to IS, they have had al eye toward service. .
Arizona republican., 1915-03-14

, waistcoats are included with many of the suits for older boys. They will be used for dress occasions, such as con 1 frmation and graduation exercies. 1 The Balmacaan deems fair for the head of the class in boys overcoats for spring They have been the universal favorites for men for se.eral seasons, and the boy now promises to follow the footsteps of his father and older broth CTS.
 The Balmacaan for boys this spring is
 not the loose, loungy, ungainly affair that it was in its primitive life, but a well tailored, full and roomy gar
 ment. It is shown mostly with self land velvet collars of the regular style, but there are also many with con.
 vertible collars.
 The double breasted overcoat which will replace the Balmacaan in men's
 overcoat styles has very slight chance Ito make Chit t' with the boys. It will be included in most displays, but in not nearly such vast numbers as the lBalmacaans.
 ' The popular patterns in boys suits flor spring are Tartan and Glen Urqu !hart plaids, plain blues, black and white
 stripes, fancy grays and mixtures.
 The patterns in boys overcoats will
 be large -plaids, plain blues, grays land fancy mixtures.
 | Light weight homespuns, tweeds, cas-
 simeres and cheviots will be used for suits and overcoats. They are firmly

 FOR LITTLE TOTS "Making big boys out of little tots' , is the way one designer expressed him. 3 self. For several years there has been la growing tendency to put older styles t Ion little fellows, and this year as never
 before is that true.
 II Washable suits this year will be t shown almost entirely in Norfolk styles. e There are cute little double breasted e Norfolk effects in most displays that ' should meet with the instant approval s of discriminating mothers. The trou- sers in most cases are of different col n ors than the waist and come either d attached or detached, as preferred. eI A clever innovation is the Dutch suit. V ] It is taken from the styles worn by the e l peasants of Holland-a wide and roomy
 garment with rather long pantaloons, e with slit pockets. It is shown in wash. l. able fabrics of many different qualities [ and shades.

TOLSTOY NEVER SAID IT

One more of the great myths of the war is exploded.
 Tolstoy, in a posthumous statement printed in July, was supposed to have predicted the coming of the present .condflict. He was set down as pro- phesying. among other thoughtful and stirring things, the coming of a Ma poleon from the north, who would come to he the dominant figure in the struggle.
