fitting Hoops.

That 1t is necessary IN the cause OF public
decency, to say nothing about good morals,
for public journals to enter protest against
an infamous fashion shows how terribly
demoralized society is becoming The fitting
hoop mania among the women and girls of
respectable families is a startling episode in
American society. That women Of mature
years should wear them, and thus expose
their persons to the lasciyiOus gaze Of street
loafers, are indications that the wearers nat
urally, if not really, belong to the abandoned
class by whom this detestable fashion was
first inaugurated-but that young girls of
respectable families are allowed to appear
on the street IN a guise which Identifies
them with public prostitutes, with the
sanction or permission Of their parents,
argues very poorly for the good sense or
discretion of their parents or guardians.
Such sights are now daily 20 be witnessed
on our streets as would shame the Lorettes
of Paris and bring a blush to the cheeks of
Cyprians. We have seen young ladies of
the most respectable (so-called) families of
this city expose their persons trough the
instrumentality Of this Infamous fashion Ia
a manner which calls loudly for the action
Of the police. To the conservative influence
of that body we appeal for the protection of
public morals They should arrest every
woman who appears upon the streets in this
abominable guise. This seems TO be the
only effective remedy against that fearful
abandonment Of American women to the
behests Of fashion. Let the remedy be
adopted at once 1t must be evident that a
crisis is being forced on US IN the fashionable
world which viii sooner or later call forth
the armed Intervention of the public su-
thorities Rochester ~ y Union.
