how seldom che editor visits them, [
in this letter take the liberty of call
ing The editors attention to what I
consider a growing evil IN our public
schools, aud that is the tendancy Of
the children to Over-dresS.
During the last year or two there
has been an alarming tepdancy on
the part of the girls at school to vie
with each other in the matter of dress
and think a stop should be put to it.
When [ was a girl calico was good
enough TO attend the public schools in
and we all wore neAt aprons ana no
girl ever felt ashamed when size was
in this dress because all tie other
girls wore the same style of clothes.
But il is quite different in Carson.

time dressing their children because
the children tease 50 hard to have
clothes as good as other children
whose clothes they are envious Of.
don't believe it is a good idea to
have this sort Of rivalry gOirg on
among young girls, for the love of
dress display they acquire will make
them eXtravagant when they grow up
and it may make them worse. A love
of fine clothes is not a good thing to
and many a N has gone ME
wrong path because of a love for
elegant clothes and display which she
could not acquire the money to pay
