BOXER’S COSTLY CLOTHES Jack Sharkey, though he has lost his world title, is determined to maintain his name for sartorial elegance. He revealed recently that he pays £do each for his suits. Ah enterprising tailor said that he eoitld make an equally good suit for £2H and offered to prove his case, Sharkey, however, contended that a suit costing less' than £no would he, unsatisfactory and - refused the offer. Men. it would seem, are no less fond of clothes than the fair sex when circumstances' permit. Henry Ford, according to-one writer,-wears a new soil every day, hut it seems unlikely that such a keen man of business would share Jaek Sharkey’s views as to the amount; it Is necessary to expend to obtain a. satisfactory suit. ft Is not always really necessary to pay- more to get the heat. What better smoke could there he than Red Shield (Dajk) and Blue Shield (Medium). Those New Zealand tobaccos at their best are toasted to a turn, and yet cost only 1/7 per two-ounce tin. The onepound canisters are even more economical. 4
