lb concerned we may frankly s..v of tight fitting skirts; skirts offens-
that he is no more the formidable lv'lv snort: certain types of hosiery.
The list might easily be made lonz-
t r; it is merely used by way of Illus
tration. Women are crying out because of
the libertines among cur men. I be
lieve their cries ri3e to heaven and
'.hat heavon weeps over the ehame
of it. But I say without hesitation
that these prevailing sytles of dres9
are loosing the passions of countless
thousands of 'growing boys whose
physical fight, is already severe.
When Will women underttand? I
mae no charge of indecent desisnlc
against thousands of women whose
thoughts and lives are far above
such a thing. Granted that they are
above such thoughts will they not
listen to those who know these
thimgs?
Two girls of irreproachable char
S4 te-r passed me cm the street but
a day or two since; they were dress
ed CO&splCUOUtly and, I should say,
immodestly. The crossing policeman
caught the eye of a teamstre and
Winked, and the teamster replied
with a -sneering smile. The girls
never knew of the estimate those
two men placed upen them.
Just ahead of me the other day
wulked a young weman whose face,
apart from her costume, betokenul
erinemer.-t; but her dress was of
"problem" that he was once suppes
ed to be.
One cf the most significant things
that has btua brought home to us
with etiiphas is t lie fact that the
problem-s of boyhood are intricately
involved with other relationships,
and not the least of these la the
relationship cf the boy and the girl.
It Is my privilege to do my think
ing in terms of thirty thousand boys
in the teen age, the entire boyhood
of a great city. Not that 1 have re
lationships with any such number;
but along with definitely constructive
business I am set as watchman upon
the wall to sound the alarm when
any danger seems to menace the
boyhood life of this community. The
charge makes me of necessity a
student of boyhood life in large cit
ies, and I have in mind to write In
earnest frankness concerning a phase
of this girl element that appears to
be a new meinace Impossible as It
has been proved for anything to be
really new.
I refer to the prevailing manner
of dres among women, more espec
ially as seen upon our city streets.
I have no hesitation in saying that
it is not alone immodest, but is as
well immoral; and 1 greatly fear we

happened to be a circuit court judge.
The first man defended bis criticism
by citing the women who were seen
at this hotel: whereupen the judge
remarked: "You are wrciog. The
women who go there go with their
husbands, and are the respectable ma
trons of the community. You fail
to make allowance for the present
immodtsty in women's drees; an
immodesty which causes me to be
i! shamed to meet seme of my meat

the streets of our city."
rahappily, the judge was right,
And right here is the iiux of the
difficulty. If only immodest women
and girls dressed in vulgar fashion,
llu l'ne would be sharply drawn. But
this immodest dress prevails among
all classes.
Those of us who give our lives to
boys find no harder task than to
help the boy in his battle to keep
pure. Imagine such a boy, fightiing
such a terrific battle as cniy a man
can appreciate, confronted not once
