Suit Still Primary Investment Although present prices make it a top investment value, the suit is still a man's primary clothing ex penditure. A recent survey disclos ed that the American man's aver age annual investment in suits equals his necktie purchases for more than eight years, or his sock purchases for six years. Even though' he buys an aver- ae of less than one-half a suit a year, he Invests more in' It than he does In handkerchiefs for 29 years, in shirts for 2 years, or in hats for 5 years.' Wives Go Along , Because he knows that the suit is the most important single 'ele ment, in his appearance, he wants to give the most careful consider ation to his selection. That's why so many wives go along for . the final approval. If eventually he comes to regard the suit he chose as unsatisfactory, he may blame the retailer or the manufacturer of the suit and he may even .blame his wife. Usually, however, most of the fault rests with him. For, when he selects a new suit. two considerations beyond its im mediate appearance will determine the ultimate success of his pur chase: (1) How is It made? (2) Will It coordinate with the cloth ing already in his wardrobe? ' The pattern and texture of the fabric and : the style of the suit are first in a man's mind when he shops, but some knowledge about the weaves' of cloth and the con struction of clothing are essential if he is to be certain of making "tne Best buy." Fabrics Listed Suit fabrics fall into two cate gories; Closely-woven, smooth-sur faced fabrics which employ long, fine fibers combed - parallel are worsteds. In this class are serge, gabardine and sharkskin, all re nowned for long wear and wrinkle resistance. Coarser, shorter fibers, crisscrossed in the yarn are used in the making of woolen fabrics. as tweed. Shetland and homespun. which are I known for their soft. napped texture and their durability. TOPCOATS ARE SHORTER The shorter-length topcoat Is a new trend this Fall. Many coats are tailored only slightly longer than knee-length, with lines that give a mildly fitted appearance. aft TARE A r r TiL h.

Patterns Seen Sweaters This Fall Always popular with men for Fall and Winter, sweaters i are winning an even bigger place in this year's style spotlight, i The wild patterns and startling colors which together with high prices frightened many men from sweater counters a year ago have given way to softer tones and more subdued patterns. And, even more important, prices of most quality wool sweaters have moved sharply : downward during : the year. From the style standpoint, men will have wide choice between new models and revivals of tradi tional favorites. Both pullover and button-front sweaters will enjoy high favor, but the biggest, gains in popularity, style experts say, will be registered by turtleneck models. For those who prefer solid colors and these men are in the major ity long standing preferences for navy blue, light blue, dark green, brown and maroon will give way to some of the newer shades; rust. light tan, gray and heather mix tures. A wide range of new, more mod erate patterns is also much in evi d e n c e, particularly jacquards, large stripe effects and argyles. The specialty fibers, cashmere, camel's hair and lamb's wool will be widely featured. .

Stormcaats in Tweeds An interesting new development in tODCoats is what mitrht h rail! the enrichment of the stormcoat. This eoat, which was popular for years in me west tor farm wear and use von the grange, came into use on college campuses within the the past five years. The first ver sion to be seen on the campus us ually had a cotton noDlin bodv with alpaca pile lining and wool inter lining, ine alpaca pile covered the collar and lapels, serving essen tially as a fur trimming. Beginning last year and contin uing strongly this Fall, the storm coat has turned to woolens such as subdued tweeds and to worsted gabardine as a logically warmer, more durable fabric.
