POWER CONTROL ELECTRIC MOTOR StRVICE WE REPAIRS Electric Motors) Power Tools Hydraulic Jack Alesnlt Equipment Ul t. E. 4 th Peadletoes Phono W SJU By DONNA GEORGE Since the suit Is the major item In a man's wardrobe, it is important that he concern him self with proper fitting, line and silhouette, and color. Elaine K. Carlson. Oregon State Univers ity Extension clothing and tex tiles specialist, says many shop pers don't know what to look for In buying a suit. Here are some suggestions. The collar should be comfort able but fit snugly, and be set low enough to show at least half an Inch of the shirt coller. The shoulders of the coat should be the same height and width, ride easily on the shoulders, but re main in place. Lapels should re main close and smooth against the chest Suit coats come In three lengths: regular, short or long. Miss Carlson suggests that you select the Jacket that gives you pleasing proportions and not a sawed-in-half look. The front should hang straight and never toward the center. Wringles across the chest, the back or un der the collar indicate Improper fitting. The sleeves should per mit at least one half inch of the shirt cuff to show. Trousers should be trim and hang straight but full enough In the crotch and seat for com fort in sitting. Good fit depends on correct size at the waistline and proper length of the inseam and outseam. The crease of the center front should be on the lengthwise grain of the fabric. The break in the trousers should come just above the instep. - In trying on the suit sit and bend to determine comfort Put everything you normally carry wallet, keys, eta, into the pock ets. If it looks and feels good with these items in the pockets, you'll be getting a proper fit ting suit Pattern Alteration Workshops In Session in County Through Extension workshops in Pattern Alteration, several Morow county women are learn ing ways to adjust dress pat terns for better fit A group meeting Friday at Lexington Instructed by Donna Ceorge. county extension agent includes leaders who will in turn teach other women.
