verted coal bucket to the excessively
bell-bottom trousers that make the
landsman look like a comic opera
sailor who has never shifted a salt
breeze. The glazing fault to avoid in
dress is eXaggeration, for exaggera-
ton makes a mock of true fashion. Be
content with simple effects. Simple
ity is the mother of good taste. Adopt
odd colors and patterns only if you
are certain that they befit your figure
and type. Avoid mixing colors in a
single theme of dress. Take a leaf
from Nature, which never makes a
as, for instance, green turn
ing to brown, two ideal colors which
contrast always and admirably. See
that you make ends meet, as for ex-
ample, brown gloves with a brown
soft hat and brown shoes, or gray
gloves with a gray soft hat, having
black ribbon, and black shoes. Study
the contour of your head and the cast
of your features to determine whether
your collar and cravat should make
them appear broader, if narrow, and
narrower, if broad. No truer maxim
for dressing was ever penned than
Know Thyself!"

Where is the Sunday suit Of yester-
day? Gone-gone the way of low-cut
|waistcoats, padded shoulders, horse.
hair sofas and the family picture al
buns. So says William Hobart Vein
traub, director of the Dress Well and
Succeed Campaign The Sunday suit
is putting up a fight in some remote
corners of the country districts. but it
! is gradually losing ground, for men
realize now that Thursdays appear
ance or Mondays appearance inter-
ests us as much as the way we deck
ourselves on Sunday, according to
Weintraub.
The speech is one Of the series
which Mr.. Weintraub is delivering
over the country in the effort to make
men dress better. The slogan, Dress
Well and Succeed" is being brought
home to the millions of men in the
COUNTRY by means of paid advertise
ments in the newspapers, style arti-
cles syndicated in the leading dailies,
talks before mems clubs, radio speech
es and special bulletins sent out to
employees of the large industrial or
CARNATIONS.
Zone reason for the Sunday suit go
ing out is the common sense fact that
if a new suit takes its turn with a
mans other clothes, it wears longer"
said Mr.. Weintraub in his talk to the
retailers. Correct dress received its
greatest impetus when men stopped
angling for the admiration of others
and began to clothe themselves for
the appreciation of Others"
Today, he whose head is screwed
tightly in it's socket does not attempt
to outshine others by the holiness
and colorfulness of his clothes He
does not try to be the bullseye of
every eye. He does not relish being
stared at as one would stare at two
headed calf. He is mindful that his
dress is only the binding on the book
and the frame around the picture, not
the book or the picture itself. Cor
rect dress has had to pay, and pay
dearly, for countless follies commit
ted in its name, from the derby that
bestrode the wearer's ears like an in.

was too far away for this to be more

Hastily and with a feeling of disap-

dress to her street clothes. 1t was her
habit to leave by the side door opening
on an unfrequented cross street. 1t was
also by this door that she came to the
