the young fellow who keeps posted in
the newest wrinkles in mems styles
you'll only show folks you are ign'ant
That's just the styles decreed by the
New York style sharks and l guess
our good dressers will be following the
style bellweathers like q lot of sheep
In style and cut the 1922 masculine
summer wardrobe will follow closely
that Of the female Of the species for
1921. Man following woman, ever,
say the experts. Women having for
the most part discarded corsets, tight
| fitting corset waists are to be obliter-
ated from the new coats. Long, loose
lines are emphasized. The longer and
looser the better. Extreme decollete
coats are to be avoided in fact, the
virile sub-deb will return to tf' four
button arrangement, which buttons
chastely over the waistcoat, and
leaves but a hint Of throat exposed.
For the older man there is to be a little
more freedom, although he will wear
if in style-the three button arrange
ment instead of the one and two but
ton affair Of year ago. Pockets still
continue in popularity. Hip pockets
are fashioned to suit the patron. In
styles shown at the exhibit they vary
in size from pint to quart, and are
noticeably made with slight tendency
to bulge by few gathers expertly
placed. Just as Madame wears cuffs
on knickerbockers, so will the stronger
sex wear cuffs on his trousers. Des-

were some of the big wholesale houses
that did not care to handle anything
but the business of the larger depart

would pay but little attention to the
smaller buyers. But 1t is quite different
now They will take business from al
most any buyer and take it like they
are glad to get it, no matter how
small the business. l was struck by
the tactics of one big concern that
handles hnts-ladies' sailors, etc. A
couple Of years ago they would hardly
sell me anything because my demands
OF their particular kind were small,
and when one did buy it was necessary
to buy a case Of three dozen of num-
Der. Well our business will not absorb
three dozen of single style Of sailor
hats and Of course there was nothing
doing These people have this year
changed their tactics and they are
reaching out for the smaller dealers.

went into this place with two other
small buyers and while we each only
bought a case Of hats the seller was
glad to split the cases and give each
Of us dozen Of kind, so none of us
would be overstocked on a single style
and color. And it was also noticeable
that the big piece-goods houses were
just as ready to handle our orders as
we could wish for. They of course
wanted to sell big orders, but If the
buyer was not making big purchases
they would take the smaller orders and
show they were glad to get them"
