    The relation between the magnitudes of instrumental measurement and subjective assessment of the surface topography of three series of plain weave, weft pile and knitted fabrics is reported. It is found that the surface feel of fabrics is influenced by the number, height and relative variation of surface asperities. In woven fabrics, a systematic increase in yarn sett greatly altered the peripheral boundaries and hence smoothness of fabric surface. The tactile smoothness of cord fabrics is influenced by the number, height and variation of heights of the fiber piles. Surface fuzziness and number of detectable ribs appear to govern the smoothness of knitted fabrics.Magnitude estimation and surface contour causal factors such as number and height of irregularities correlate linearly.

    Most of compaies manufacturing or selling woolen textiles are very interested in planning newmerchandise.They usually make samples of the newly planned textiles. In order to prepare many textile samples, it is often requested to change warp density (i. e., the number of warp ends per unit width of a textile) among every samples.
    Our development provides a variable dents' interval reed which can change the dents' interval in the range of 7.1 dents/25.4mm to 8.3 dents/25.4mm, so as to easily achieve various warp density. The improved reed comprises a pair of slit plates having multiple slits and dents inserted to the slits. The slits are formed in each slit plate to be radially arranged. Each dent is slidable along the corresponding slit. Accordingly, the sliding of the dents causes the dents' interval to be changed.
    Furthermore, the improved reed enables to produce a new-type textile in which the warp density is continuously changeable along the width there of. In fact, it was successful to produce such a textile sample using the improved reed.
    According to improved reed, many textile samples are easily and rapidly produced.

    The purpose of this paper is to picture profiles of customers, to clarify the character of customer for each storetype by using their profiles and to obtain the relation between their purchasing behavior and profiles. For its purpose, the customers were observed at a bargain counter in five sample stores. As observed items, the visual attributes were composed of nine articles : (1) age, (2) clothes, (3) hair style, (4) earring, (5) necklace, (6) rouge, (7) shoes, (8) bag and (9) shopping bag. The behavior of customers was focused on buying attitude of clothes and classifies into the following four steps : (1) bought clothes, (2) tried-on and did not buy, (3) did not buy after watching without hurry and (4) passed away without interest.
    Using x2 tests of the data observed, we obtained the profiles of customers at each store. And using quantification theory II, we obtained the difference of attributes between bought consumers and non-bought ones with clothes buying behavior.
