CLOTHES CAN MAKE MAN
TaIlors Show Just What to Wea,
and Not TO Don

"a Gentleman's Wardrobe. which is
a sort Of problem play about what the
we'll dressed man viii wear, opened at
the Bellevue Stratford this morning for
three day run.
1t is fashion show produced by the
National Association of Merchant Tai
lors and Is put on in three parts and
about thirty suits and overcoats. These
are not the same people who produced
"A Tailor Made Man" Goat Tails, "
and other sartorical comedies.
As q matter of fact, and not to de.
ccive any one at all, the merchant tailors
are simply giving an exhibition of
clothes for all occasions, supplemented
by a display of shoes, hats and access
sories also for all occasions.
The models in the show, which rep
resent everything from full dress to silk
lounging suits. have been made from
imported cloth by leading merchant tai
lors of the East. They have occasionally
thrown in an unconventional touch. like
a silk cuff on the sleeve Of q dinner
Jacket or q crescent shaped pocket, but
these are custom made models, the de-
tails of which can be changed to suit
the individual wearer.
The exhibition shows that American
tailors know how to make the finest
clothes in the world and that American
men are learning how to wear them.

Musical comedy is not only lesiti-
mate but. good entertainment, In the
opinion Of n. n. Sothern, actor, who,
with Mrs. Sothern (Julia Marlowe), Is
in the city for 4 few weeks sojourn.
This lighter form Of entertainment
Is not the trashy sort Of thing that
many persons think Il, according to Mr..
Sothern.
1.-THE musical comedy is, on the
whole, charming form Of entertain
ment, he said. There IL just as much
persons other than the tired business
man as there Is in any comedy that one
Is likely to see." ~.
Mr.. Sothern was answering the
charge that the American drama is
retrograding and that musical comedy
is one Of the prevalent forms of foot
light diversion that spells intellectual
ruin.
There is much appeal to the esthetic
in this entertainment" he continued.
Beautiful settings, costumes and stage
effects, not to mention beautiful girls,
oil have an appeal in that direction II

One Of the great difficulties lies In
the fact that the commanding figures

their brilliant histrionic contributions.
These artists, however. did not rise
to their position of eminence by the
wave Of magic wand. They began
life on the stage early and went through
all the gruelins steps to get the neces-
sary dramatic equipment to do the
bigger things in the histrionic world.
They worked for little compensation
and ignored opportunities that might
have brought them more money, but
would certainly not have enabled them
to reach their goal.

FARMERS TO BURN CORN
Cheaper and Better Than Soft Coal,

Hundreds of thousands Of bushels Of
corn may be burned as fuel by farmers
in northern Nebraska this winter, nc

above that. A wagon box thirty inches
high Is required 10 hold a ton of un-
