speculating from the
printed word where
you'd better buy your
clothes. There's no
use trying to guess
what you'll find in the
way of fit and style
from what you read;
for, if all clothes were
what type claims for
them, then Beau
Brummell would be a
backwoodsman along
side of the average
man on our streets.
T,There's just one
satisfactory criterion
to go by, the criterion
of your own five
senses. And, of course,
you have to make
comparisons at that.
Therefore, put it up
to the clothes; look
them all over; speak
to the men who wear
theirs with a differ
ence; and don't
neglect to have
Perry's down on your
itinerary.
