Recently, the explorers took them home and started wear- ing them around the country club and at the beach. Originally, they were made in light-weight tropical cottons, but now they may be had in linen, gabardine and light-weight corduroy. For golf or almost any sort of casual eountry wear, they are very fine indeed,.and the capacious pockets carry any- thing from a pack of cigarettes to a seven-course dinner. r E DON'T know whether Stanley was wearing a bush shirt when he pulled his famous “Dr. Livingston, I presume?” line, but they We got so interested in the bush shurt €0t to tell you about the fine blue are cut on generous resort wear &0 well complete &imilar in desig: tween the V: and the however, and are more practic: types of country lounge wear. or for gener leather N The planters's hat is a sort of ex- tension model panama with a creased crown and a wider brim.

These are good for tennis and golf, too. Man’s Fashion Editor, The Evening Dirt Cuts Auto Lights.
