Apparel stores up anc! down Polk Street report that it is the sex that is really dressing up in costly gear while many of the town's business men are going Western juat enough to avoid the waiery penalty of Judge Bean's court.

A check of rny wife's closet, and most of her clothes are still at her mother's, also reflects this disproportionate ratio of women's to men's clothes at the family level.

There must be many thousand pairs of Western boots in Amarillo. George Pulley and some of the Amarillo boot makers should have some index by which they can Judjce the number of boots owned by Amarillo people. June was the big surprise montlj in building circles.
