The latest finely textured woolen
topcoats add to their exclusive ap­

This is nccompflshed In a
strictly tailored way. As an example,
a fine gray twill Is used for n straight-
line model. The mannish collar and
simple turn back cuffs nre of matching
gray satin, of quality-kind.
These lighter weight cloth coats also
often carry Interesting shirred nnd
