WOMEN NOW WEARING
THEIR HUSBANDS SHIRTS

Atlanta, June 20.-The latest
fad of fashion to be adopted by
Atlanta women is the wearing Of
their husbands shirts for shirt
waists. They say the shirt makes
the neatest, most sylish-looking
shirtwaists they ever wore.
A very common and popular
stunt" among the younger set is
for a husband and wife to have
their shirts and shirtwaists made
from the same material, which
gives them a wide range for the
employment OF their taste in the
selection Of the new loud colors
the men are wearing.
The most gorgeous suits OF
plaids ever worn by Harry Laud-
er in his famous rendition OF Scot
fish songs and humorous stories
was not a circumstance compared
to the patterns Atlanta men are
wearing.
In one Atlanta office the young

men have started regular CON
test to see which one can wear the

ranged a schedule Of games"
with one another and post a daily
bulletin on the league standing"
For three days hand running two
men are pitted against each other,
and a close account is kept of the
games won and lost by each.
The louder a contestants shirt,
the more games he wins and the
higher he goes in standing; while
the more quiet and dignified his
shirt, the fewer games he wins,
the lower goes his percentage,
and pretty soon he hits the eel
lar.
