dress from the comfortable necessity to the ornamental, ugly. disfiguring garb Of modern time.
 With men," said the speaker. clothes represented utility first. with women 1t was fashion. Women's dress was ndica- tive of the wealth of her owner in ancient times. Now women's dress Is the expres- sion of the affiuency of the man to whom she is attached. conspicuous indication Of her husbands or fathers wealth. The facilities of manufacture have made clothing common and that has brought about the changes of fashion.
 ''The natural effect of fashions on char aeter Is that they destroy the fundamental love of beauty; they make us vain; they develop a love of conspicuousness; they make us morbidly conscious: destroying independence of character. The constant change of fashion destroys stability. fosters trivialty and encourages ser vility of attitude toward people We really do not respect-those who lead the fash ions. Therefore there Is need Of dress re- form
 'The dress of woman now expresses the status of woman long gone by because 1t violates the principles of beauty and health.
 Women will never dress rationally till they know how their body is made and when woman expresses her own efnclency and not frivolity.
 Reform in woman's dress must come from within. woman's dress must be what she Is. Woman must want to be well, beautiful and lovable. Dress re-

 This paper called Mrs. Carr to the dis cussion, and she declared that as soon as man approved of dress reform all women stood ready to adopt it.
 Professor c. A. Duniway chastised the press in his paper Social Functions and the Newspapers.
 Professor Duniway, in true pedagague fashion, went back to primitive days and traced the press from it's glorious origin to the present degenerate times. He sympathized with the news-demanding declared were shattered in the interest of the business office.
 'The newspaper in modern times" he said '4is said to stand for the utmost lib- ineuicator of some particular doctrine, is the mouth piece of some trust. some political party. The editor is ruled by the business office and the reporter who flee standpoint told to roast this man and praise this one.
 '"The ideal editor cannot exist. Every editor must have regard to the opinions of his subscribers It is a mistake to say the press is free. It is subordinated to the business office interests
 The yellow journals also came in for a scoring, and the professor vigorously ad- vanced the theory: If you don't like a nasty newspaper, keep it out of your house.
