Novelties In
Fall Shirts
For Men
BY WILMA LavILLE

You have, no doubt, noticed
that men are paying more at
tention to their clothes than
they have for many many years.
A well-dressed man chooses his
furnishings to go together, and
also to go with his suit. It's a
season of harmony when every
part of the costume counts. It
is well, therefore, to study the
new trends before you buy your
fall furnishings.
Plain colorS and stripes will
both be good in fall shirts.
White or blue seem to be the
best colorS. Some authorities
advocate narrow stripes, spaced
widely. while others prefer tiny
stripes so close together that
they look like plain colors. The
only noticeable change in the
design of shirts is that collars
have shorter points and they
are squared or rounded. The
demi-bosom shirt was popular
last year and promises to be
more so this year, though the
newer version will be more con-
servative. The collars may
either match or be white and,
of course, they will be shorter
with squared or rounded cor
ners.
New ties are striped, or they
are figured. Figures are nearly
always small and far apart,
while stripes may be wide or
narrow, Dark colorS are good,
such as green. wine, brown and
blue.
The demi-bosom shirt brings
a return of cuff links and studs.
The newest cuff links are of
Semi-preciouS stones, cut in odd
shapes and held by large metal
prongS. There are also smart,
modernistic enameled links.
Of course, studs Will match cuff
links.
There are two trec.,- in mems
ties that are new and different.
One is stripes, which may be
wide or narrow, and the other is
widely spaced, small patterns.
Both will be in dark colors, such
as blue, green. and brown
The Snap-brim hat will, un-
doubtedly, be more popular for
early fall than any other, and
1t comes in several good types.
The best colors for hats are
dark and medium browns, grays,
and new mixtures, with green
or blue predominating.
Miss LaVille will gladly answer
any question about these clothes
or about fashion if you will tele-

The easier way is to match
colors. But the newer fashion is
away from too much repetition.
So often different tones of one
color are selected-keeping the
harmony but relieving monot-
ony.
In patterns, too. the easiest
way is to match them. But-you
can use the same pattern With
two different colors in the back
grounds. Then the colors in the

Sinclair Dividend
Cut to 81 q Year

Sinclair Consolidated Oil Co.
directors today halved the divi.
dend on the common stock Of the
company by declaring a quarterly
payment of 25 cents a share on
the issue. This places the stock
on a ST. annual basis compared
with the 50 previously paid an
nually. The dividend is payable
January Is, 1881 to holders Of
record December is.
The following statement was
made by the directors following
the cut:
"The company will this year
do the largest volume Of bust.
ness in its history. General con-
ditiOns and over supply have,
however, made 1t impossible to
realize satisfactory profits from
operations. Looking to the fu-
ture, the board believes it Is in
the best interests of the stock
holders to maintain the excep-
tiOnally strong position of the
corporation by a conservative
change at this time"
