Some Of the loveliest days of
the year come after the heat of
the summer is done and the COL
ors come to roost on the frees.
Days cool and invigoratirg that
bring out as many new clothes
as there are motors on the roads
and crowds at the football
games.
Because the new fall coat is
the most important purchase to
be made right now, here is a
drawing Of two of the suartest
seen. Sport coats they Ore, but
with spirited style and dis
tinction that make the sport
coats of other seasons appear
drab and uninteresting.
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1923-09-24

There is the plaid, a little
holder and more vivacious than
any that have gone before. 1t
has the becoming flare that
comes from an inverted plat
loosed a little below the shoulder.
Both coats are belted, both
have pockets that are frankly
tapped, and lapels that are clear
ly cut and have fine lines. APP
parently trivial details but all
important where imperfect tail
oring would mar the entire hang
and style of coat.
The two pictured shO" the
effect of care and attention. They
will furnish any woman with
legitimate excuse for spending
much of her time outdoors this
season.
