By Neal R. O'Hara Coprri by The Preece Publishing %o. (The New York Bvening World.) LD CLOTHES LEAGUD has got ‘em groggy in London, High costa clothes has got the bloomin’ swells wearing patches, turning linings, wearing suits inside out. London guys say it’s simply ripping, and that’s about all it is—simply ripping and turning the suit o' clothes inside out. A patch is just a war tax on an old pair of trousers. ‘London bunch 's gonna keep on doing it till the price of clothes comes down, 80 it looks like a long season for patches. Guy that buys a new suit now is a scab. Old Clothes League believes in a closed shop for tailors, witli & padlock on the door and the Sheriff taking the receipts. League has struck while the tron is hot and now presses its own clothes. ‘ Wearing patches ain't gonna be any novelty for a lotta married men though. Some of 'em have been wearing pants in two parts since their | married life began. And if the O. C. League thinks it was founded in | London, all wrong, like a dollar watch. Old Clothes League has been going in America since the first Indian got married. 0, C. mem- bers in this country are called hubbies. League in England is different from here. English members are allowed six patches to our one, Senate ts now jnvestigating the leagne, and it looks like they'll recommend additional patchwork. Old Clothes League in America don't believe in open coverings—they want ‘em patched up. But you'll notice the O. C. L. is for men only. Don't catch any women starting a league like that. Way the girls fight the high costa clothes is to wear LESS clothes, not old ones. Women's drive is a big suecess—artistically In a pinch they'd rather have their clothes look old than themselves, but unless it's a pinch they'll do netther. It's different with women anyway. A man can get along with one suit of clothes a year, but a woman's gotta have a new one for every bridge party. That's why the man gets along with one Jeuit a year.
