IN BANKRUPTCY THOMAS & BARTON CO. 708-710-712 Broad Street. , f'HE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA. What we must not forget is that there is a distinct point of morale in this-’ question of how a- woman dresses. a woman is never better than she drodses, or, what Is equally important, as *»he allows those to dress over whom she has a woman’s dress revals with unfailing accuracy exactly w'hat she is. There is, in fact,* no mirror that so olearly re veals the character as a woman's dress. It is unerring and absolutely self-revealing. When we see young girls, as we saw them in large numbers last summer than ever before, or thought lessly displaying in their attire their physical rather than their innocent charms, the fault is not so much with the girls, as with their mothers who per mit them to buy and wear such clothes. The excusfe that mothers can not control the attire of their daughers is begging the question. A mother Is a pretty poor failure when she has to confess to such an admission. When girls are permitted to buy and wear the amazing hats that they wore last year, set on a head loaded down with puffs and mts; the waist so thin and transparent as to be absolutely Indecent with sleeves so short and neck so low as to transcend the line of decency, and a skirt so tight that the figure Is dis played at every step, with stockings ot the thinnest transparent silk —there is a question of morals involved that is, to say the least, important. There is no sense in our being .shock ed at the social evils that clxst and seem to be on the rapid increase on ev ery side, threatening our young girl hood at every turn, so long as we di stinctly and directly add to those evils, yes, bring many of them about, by al lowing this shamelessness in dress of our daughters. It is all well enough to deplore the vicious habits of men, but is this .sort, of dressing calculated to check them. It is within the lines of calm speaking today that no single ele ment in modern life is adding so much to the evil part of sooity as this abso lutely dressing that is permit ted our young girls. It is hard to see what the mothers, oo* fathers, or guardians of these girls ar£ thinking about to allow tills sort of dress to go on. It deliberately courts danger, and when danger comes and its deadly result is stamped on tne girl for her lifetime, the parents are in tears or they explode in anger. But why. They deliberately invited the danger In the girl’s method of drees. Why be surpris ed that the method succeeded. Rather let them be surprised when their girl escapes danger. It is nothing short of a crime to allow an unthinking young girl to wear clothes that w r hen she goes out into the world are the very signals of danger. She doesn’t know. Ilow could she. But her mother does; or her father, or her brother, or sister. Some older person is responsible for allowing the dangerous dresa, and that some one will be direct ly responsible if danger cornea to the For Gray Hair t*t Can Be Darkened Very Cleverly by Using This Simple 'Formula. In this age, w'hen one's personal ap pearance counts for so much, and when both the social and business wortd puts a ban upon everything that denotes the approach of age. it becomes a matter of duty to those whose hair is turning gray to adopt somo rational means of darkening it, thus hiding the traces of Tme.
