®) TUT: ATT A NT A GFOTTfUAN AND NEWS. CHIEF DECLINES TO Beavers Thinks Man Can Be Only Wondering Spectator of Ever- Changing Feminine Styles. 'The question of woman's dress Is a delicate subject. I can’t say what I would do to prevent Indecorous and Immodest farb until my attention Is called to such a case..** This was the manner In which Chief Reavers avoided cornmlttlnK himself Friday In respect to the pol icy in several other cities which has resulted In the arrest and fining of women who have appeared on the streets In frowns too daring. The Chief would talk about wom an’s dress In a freneral way, yes; but when 1t came to setting the line be tween modesty and Immodesty or to divulging what he would do If the limit were overstepped, he wan silent Chief Beavers Is a Arm believer In the theory that the history of wom an’s dress forms a cycle that re volves every hundred years or so. He would not be surprised If, In due time, the fair sex reverted to the hoop skirt with Its picturesque accessories. Neither would It astound him to see the Roman style of dress in vogue again. Man can do nothing except In the role of an Innocent and wondering spectator. His attitude, the Chief thinks, must be strictly neutral. If the fad for X-ray garments and such like begins to hark back to the days in the Garden of Eden, then It be comes a matter for official comment for the protection of the community’s morals, but the Chief does not think the styles have developed—or revert ed—to this extent.
