If presidential example, is wor" anything in the realim of cdlothes, wie may hope for sensiblDe summer styjles before, the present adlmin isltration ends. Mr. Wilson has defined tradition and replaced the- traditional statesman's togs with cool white dueks, white shoes and Panama hat. He not only wears this tropical' garb in the executive tent on the White Housle lawn, but he broke all ptremdlential precedent1 by going to Philadelpia on the Fourth and making a sjpeech in his white suit. assuming his secretaryship. The senate and house, tod, have an unwonted air of doolne&a and co'miforti. Wihy, indeed, should men not w|ear summer clLothes in the. sum mer? The question has never been satisfactorily answered'.
