TRANSPARENCIES UNDER THE BAN No Pcek-aDoo Waist mni No Screes Door Hose to Bo Worn Girl Bar Ther Don't Wear Them. Ever see 100 thoroughly Indignant young women? If you wish to, go down to South Omaha to the offices ot the Cudahy Packing com pany and talk to any of the 100 girls who work there. The Indignation will not be loudly expressed; rather it will be sug gested by repression, with lUs tightly pressed together lest a flood of angry, words break over the barrier of the teeth. But such an Indignation never was before. All because Mr. John Forbes, general office manager for the Cudahy company, has posted a set of rules for the dress of girl employes during the summer months. Mr. Forbes lays a ban and Interdict upon these articles and modes of apparel: Transparent gowns. Peek-a-boo waists. Open work hosiery. Flashy styles of hair dressing. Unnecessary Jewelry. Loud colored dresses "white Is pre ferred." Now don't think for, a minute that the 100 are angry because they may not wear diaphanous gowns or screen-door stockings with clocks on 'em. No, Indeed! No! Not for a minute! They are angry because of the suggestion In the order that some one might think they would dress so Indecorously. "What Is a flashy style of hair dressing?" Inquired one young woman heatedly, her black eyes snapping. "I bet Mr. Forbes knows a lot about coiffures. Think he could tell a liillle Burke coiffure from a Grecian or a Psyche knot from a coronet braid?" "I never saw any girl boldly dressed down here," said another, girl, also with acid tone of voice. "And we don't for a minute like to have It suggested that we would dress Immodestly We are going to get up a round-rround what do you call It? Oh, yes, round robin, and have all the girls sign It, and all It will say Is 'honl solt qui mal y pense.' So there!" MAY REJECT ASPHALT PLAN City Attorney Sees Slim Chance of Substitute for Brick. CONTRACTORS MAY OBJECT Attorney Domain Declares Even it Brick Men Consent It Will Be Hard to Ilevlre Asphalt Bids Sidesteps Litigation. City Attorney Burn am, who is examining Into the possibility of substituting asphalt for brick on the down town streets now torn up and awaiting repavir.s, j not vet ready to give an official opinion aa to the legality or feasibility of the proposition. "I can say that so far the proposal does cot look promising," said Mr. Burnam. "Even If the brick contractors were willing to forego any rights they have, it la a serious question if we could revive the as pluiJt bids submitted at the same time This department is not going to do anything to invite litigation, and we are going to examine very carefully Into every provision of law affecting the question before advis ing council. As yet we have not found anything in the reports presuming an ex actly similar state of facta." TEDDY JR AND BRIDE 0 WEST Tms Tbroosh Omaha During; Early Moraln Moors Thursday, bat An Not HeOK nlsed.
