exhibition tour of the country
starting Wednesday. Representa-,

cities of the country are to show the
suits which cost from Is cents to

firms. Baltimore, Philadelphia and

cities where the paper clothes are to
be exhibited.
Samples of the paper suits were
imported because of the iquirles

selling them in England, Italy and
Turkey in competition with cloth
suits from other countries.
