And if you were able to see the Bengaline from which the drawing was made, you would see how interesting a solid color can be. All Bengalines are ribbed fabrics But this is a Bengaline with a difference. Hart Schaffner & Marx worked with the mills to create something new. By means of a combination of yarn size, twist and interlacing, they have produced a fabric which, while solid in color, has a “lively” appearance, rich texture and avery masculine appearance. And the threads lie in such a way that porosity is in- creased. That means more comfort whenever the temperature and/or humidity start climbing. x XK Clothes by Hart Schaffner & Marx are perhaps best known for their fit and fine workmanship. The fact is, however, that the quality and distinction of the fabrics are just as worthy of note. oe ihe sige @@ For the Brands You pig ” says the So l a Ped Sinisa Called The fire department v called ‘out about 5 p. m flush some ton stre lumbia ‘Winds of than 3,000 miles} per hour supersonic wind have been produced in} tunnels, Mail The Gitzen to Friends TO HAVANA Leave Arrive Flight Key West Havana 952 10:15 A.M. 11:00 A.M. 954 5 P.M. 2:30 P.M. 956 4:00 P.M. 4:45 P.M. | French THREE FLIGHTS DAILY AEROVIAS “Q” S.
