tpMwwp." JflWW, " I THE DAILY NEBRA&KA Ml 31 pFHH Correct Dress I "When wo speak of fashions for men -thlH sprint we llnd things almost as much complicated as fashions for wo men. Thore are a variety of Btyles, In fact it seems that the next neces sity will be a "Fashion Book for Men," from which his toggery may be selected with correctness. But from our investigations In local stores by fn;rvlewing buyers by looking and trying on wo quote the following as being "right" for a well dressed man: His spring overcoat should be a Balmacaan. This style Is the newest, and what is proving to the the most npopTllar, fop coaT. Cut exlremeTy full, with raglan shoulders, sleeves of the kltnona effect and made up in highly colored mixtures and plaids is his "majesty's" correct new top coat for spring. His suit must be a model known as English, becaiiBe of Its being very snug fitting. Shoulders are narrow, scarcely any padding; lapels are wider; sleeves narrower; the waist coat Is cut higher; trousers stralghter and more snug than usual. All these details are necessary to be In good standing with "Sir Fashion." For the really new and good color -CltecLV-fi hn-vn rinr.irlntl in htcM ! white combination. At "Armstrong's" we saw black and white stripes, checks and mixtures, that were so different that .we were amazed. We found lots of green patterns that are very pretty and no doubt this color will also be popular. For the more conservative man the plain blue and plain gray will hold the center "of the stage with the O. K. of the more conservative "Sir Fashion." And now his hat. To any particular man, his hat must be Just exactly cor rect. Ills selection this season must be of the medium high crown with not too wldo brim plain band with the bow on the quarter or back. The early buyer will find many sash or pugaree bands, but this fad is fast being sup planted by the plain silk bands. The- best colors' unr dark" brown, dark blue, dark green and pearl, gray J Tho latter color will be the best warmer weather hat. His haberdashery will depend great ly on tho color his suit selection hap pens to be. Hosiery and tlo to bo in accordance with his hat that Is In the same color scheme. From our obser vation, gray or green seems to bo tho popular color in the better haber dasher stores. Neckwear- is inpat terns bordering on tho Persian Ideas. Shirts will be shown In softer materl- als, mostly witinsoTtrcuffBT-' Fold collars aro still the popular thing, but the open front, fold collar seems tb bo gaining In popularity. Taking it all In all, we would call It an "open season" In men's styles. There Is surely a great variety in all moil's wearabloB, and to tho man who believes in "pot shot" selections, our advice Is "leave it to the man who waits on you." COTTON SUITS BEING DISPLAYED FOR LATER WEAR. A very practical and smart stylo Is developed In a closely woven crash In various colors. ThlB stylo Is particu larly good in Copenhagen blue and malzo. Tho skirt is designed In threo tler effect; tho jacket is short, having an insot panler at tho back which sim ulates a yoke at tho top; this falls below the waistline In two foldB on 1 either side, giving tho appearance of a slight rlpplo; a flat collar of self-mate rial piped with white finishes the neck, and an inBet vest of Chinese cotton crepe Is embroidered in beads and in silk and in Chinese coloring and de sign. The three-quarter length sleeves have turn-back cuffs of tho crash piped with white and decorated with white crochet buttons. 1 I Voktt flBk. y If ll wnlllllmi Hi W L -:kC-r-SB r II I I Villi ' 1 1 W V M M tar a jHMWoSSk lihol In urtlir aaI aua JOIN THE "FIRST OVER99 CLUB!
