Strolling into my Big Strand Tailory he took in a good eyeful, and started off?, ''Boy, I'll say you carry SOME stock — but can you make it up right —can you build mc an-honest-to-goodness Fifth | Avenue Suit?'' i , I said I could, and ran the tape over him. j| t He wasn't exactly a conventional figure I —having a grade of one in four on the I shoulders, and being somewhat convex £ about the knees. He was rather sceptical about my ability to make him look smart, but when he tried on the finished suit he said, ''Brother, I you're a Devil of a Good Tailor,'' and 1 he placed an order for four more suits to take ' 'back home .'
