~ (Will Mr. Wm. Fox of the News

Of course these future forecasts could have their places—but here

He predicted certain changes in a man’s physical structure—for instance—his legs would tend to be fragile, his head would become a bit more massive—but also he would be a more human man—a more - reasoning man—he would realize more and more the importance of the good things in life.

All of which is swell for Strauss— "In the year 8853 (when Strauss celebrates its 7000 anniversary) there will be such appreciation for Hickey-Freeman- clothing and Cavanagh and Dobbs hats—and Hanan and Nettleton shoes as to be almost unanimous.

And incidentally, man’s greater longevi (to 140 years) will enable Hickey- gery Freeman to test out how long a TRAVLWEAR SUIT will really wear—

(Excuse Please—this fanciful note is intended to convey—the FACT that Traviwear is about the staunchest suiting that is woven—And with Hickey-Freeman Customized tailoring it is wonderful for men who subject their clothes to real severe wear.)
