The Overall Fad

Jim Allen, of the Cynthiana Demo-
crat dosen'ts think much of this over
all fad, and it strikes us he's pretty
nearly right about it, as he usually is
on every subject. He takes this view
of it i'll his paper this week.
This "overall" movement whereby
bankers, clerks, ministers, doctors
and what-not propose to wear denims
as a protest against the high cost OF
clothing, is a foolish fad that means
nothing but harm. of course the
price Of overalls will be advanced as
soon as there is an unusual demand
and the faddists will pay for then
foolishness in stuff they don't wan
and won't wear for any length o.
time, and at the same time increase
the price of garments that men VIII,
need them must buy. The way for TIL
lWell-to-de to cut the pric,
Of clothes is to wear old clothes ge
the good out of suits that have beel
cast aside. The way to bring dow
the cost of everything is to do with
out what is not needed and quit buy
ing.
