Deans of twenty-one universities,
meeting in connection with the gather
ing of national educators in Chicago
this week, solemnly declared that girls
ought to wear more clothing. Their
present dress, the deans declared, is
all too scanty.
And recently the Federation of
Women's Clubs of New York took de
cided action In favor of a saner and
decenter form of dress for girls and,
it is to be hoped, for women, too.
It isn't a subject that we should
have been brave enough to approach
on our own initiative, but these reso
lutions give us courage to say a word.
It was high time somebody took such
action. Is modesty obsolete?
Girls who under-dress are doing
womanhood no good. And that girls
do under-dress, most conspicuously,
nobody not blind can miss seeing
these days.
Many of the costumes worn by
young girls seem to have been devised
to come as close to Indecency as they
could without subjecting the wearers
to arrest.
And there' are some costumes, seen
on the streets of every city, that have
wandered well over that border-line.
It is not alone that women's wearing
apaprel tends to shrivel rapidly to
ward a meeting place near the waist.
There are transparencies, gauziness,
that leave little concealed. Indeed, in
many cases the object seems to be to
see how little can be left unconcealed.
It isn't pretty. It isn't increasing re
spect for womanhood. It is patting ev
erybody In the blase opinion of the
London busman.
Is it too puritanical and mid-Victorian
to take a stand that women ougnt
to clothe themselves decently as well
as prettily? Whether it is that or not.
we shall risk it, and go on record ac
cordingly. Duluth Herald.
