Easier
This
Year
To
Pick
Christmas
Gifts
For
Men
Brighter
colors
sportier
and
more
casual
apparel
constitute
the
trend
in
men's
clothing
today.
Christmas
buying
for
any
man
is
greatly
simplified
this
year
ly
the
wide,
attractive
range
of
up-to-the-minute
clothing
and
accessories
being
featured
by
Prince
Rupert
stores.
The
old
cry
"Men
are
so
hard
to
buy
presents
for"
will
be
discarded
by
any
woman
who
takes
a
little
time
to
look
around
the
men's
shops.
,
.
Why
still
short
in
many
lines
is
more
attractive
than
ever.
And
most
men's
wardrobes
are
short
of
so
many
things.'-
If
you
are
shopping
around
for
I
a
present
for
a
man
regardless
of
age
you
will
riot
make
a
mis-
take
by
selecting
something
he
can
wear.
Today
wearing
ap-'
parel
is
something
that
most
rim
men
want
and
need.
Clothes
sense
reveals
a
man's
disposition.
Even
his
selection
of
a
tie
in
the
morning
will
iiuliralp
his
fpplin?.
Wliprp
ft
the
merchandise
while
man.s
wariirobe
will
permit,
he
will
don
a
suit
to
match
his
mood.
Judging:
from
the
brighter
colors,
much
in
evidence
today,
in
the
gay
Christmas-decorated
stores
of
this
city,
the
general
mental
condition
of
our
men
is
happier.
It's
a
good
sign.
Nature
meant
the
male
bird
to
be
bright
and
gay
not
drab
as
the
human

WELCOMED
GENERALLY
Men
have
always
suited
sports
apparel
and
the
sporty
trend
of
jacket
and
odd
slacks
meets
with
general
approval.
"This
combination
is
economical,
too,"
points
out
one
clothier.
"It
gives
the
wearer
variety,
as
he
can
wear
different

coat,
and
the

jacket
will
stand
up

that
of

Now
for

The
move
is
definitely
to
bold

Knitted

are
strong
sellers.
Belts,
too,
have
made
a
remarkable
comeback.
This
return
to
favor,
together
with
tie

and
bar

is
accounted
for
by
the
fact
that

OF
BOW
TIE
POPULARITY
Oh
yes.
The
olQ
sport
of
pre-depresslon
days,
the
bow
tie,
is
back
on
display.
In
the
United
States
bow
ties
are
being
given
a
gay
whirl,
but
Prince
Rupert
men
are
still
a
bit
hesitant
to
go
all-out
for
the
smaller
tie.
Latest
style
In
the
bow
tie
is
the
clip-on
model,
fitted
with
a
collar
clip
that
eliminates
the
old
elastic
band.
What
about
socks?
Big
Ar-gyle
diamonds
are
still
mighty
pleasing
to
the
male,
but
plain
shades
matching
plain
shade
ties
are
enjoying
a

women
will
find
It
much
easier
to
shop
for
men's
presents
this
Christmas.
As
one
proprietor
declared,
"The
men
are
enjoying
brighter
colors
now.
They
even
pick
out
for
themselves
ties
like
those
they
used
to
receive
at
Christmas
from
their
mothers,
sisters,
girl
friends
and
daughters.
Only
now
they
wear
them
Instead
.of
hiding
them
under
a
pile
of
papers
in
the
top
drawer
of
their
dresser."
The
general
conclusion
is,
jof
course,
that
men
are
gettln?
smart
as
far
as
clothes
are
concerned.

degree
of
irsignation
at

inaballty
to
Uij
anything
about

The

He
Is
going
to
remain
in
Prince

for
the
holiday
season.
"It's
partly
a
matter
of

and
partly
a
matter

principle,"
he
declared.
"I

this

Others
recognized
it
as

deplored
that
Prince

as

"Costs
