FOR THE GENTLEMAN mmnoTOminntaiNMfiMgfiBfflmnmmiBiuMlwmmmRinnsinDffilliBfAinaiaflanofflrararaiwiininiBniiMi Apparel for Those Week-end Motor Trips ABOUT this time of year the urge to get going comes over your household and your spouse will say to you, ‘'Let's take a week-end trip In the car." You'll have no other course but to have the motor overhauled, whip up a sensible motoring wardrobe, and resign yourself to a life of hotdog stands, comfort stations, chicken din ners, State police, and billboard greetings from various chambers of commerce. We know of no better all-purpose suit for Summer wear than the dou ble-breasted solid gray flannel. No matter where you go or what you do, It Is a smart, practical Invest-1 ment. With it, we are showing a tweed cap in shepherds check. Be aure that you get one with a one piece flat top that will make you look like a gentleman. If you are rele gated to the rumble seat, you'll find the cap is indispensable. Chooae shirts in a zephyr or air-con ditioned fabric—a good stunt is the Eo-button type with convertible neck line that can be worn with collar open or with a tie. Tan or blue is more practical than white on the road. Tf you expect to stop off at a smart hotel en route, better take a white dinner jacket o' some lightweight Summer fabric, worn with regulation blade dress trousers In worsted, or of the same lightweight Summer fab ric of your dinner Jacket. If you have a single-breasted, shawl collar Jacket, wear it with a soft collared, •Ilk Bhlrt and a black silk cummer bund. (Ooprrigl; Queries on men’s fashions will t •o-operation with Esquire. Address Star, Washington, D. C. For long stretches at the wheel, we suggest ventilated pigskin driving gloves, gauntlet style. Pigskin wears like iron, and doesn't slip. If you must smoke when driving, better Invest in a pipe with practi cal top that slips over the bowl, keeping the ashes from flying all over mama. When you are driving, it's a good idea to wear an odd pair of slacks with the jacket of your flannel suit. Gabardine is a good bet, as it holds its shape, despite hours in the driver's seat, and doesn't muss readily. You may want to wear a sleeveless pullover sweater instead of your coat. Wine color is not only smart but practical. Get shoes in brown reverse calf with crepe soles. You don’t have to bother having them polished, just brush up with a wire brush, or a better trick yet, with an old hairbrush —these are kinder to the leather. V ,«f>» Better take a raincoat along. We suggest the model shown in gabar dine, with an Inverted pleat that is really a vent in disguise.
