The Crime

For the most provocative patriotism in the world wear your stars and stripes "undercover"! Let a star-struck slip skitter out from under your navy blue suit. Wear a boldly striped petticoat with a witty bombardment of stars on its bodice. The whole idea's as fresh and vivid as the red carnation in your best bean's buttonhole. It's as deliciously daring as the gusty winds of March will let you be. Macy's ad.

--And be sure to get E Pluribus Unum on the drop seat.
