Bishop Scarborough Of New Jersey is
undoubtedly a very devout and worthy
man, but he seems to be looking for
trouble. At a church convention at Tren-
ton. this week. the bishop made a
speech in which he denounced young
women who go bareheaded at seaside
resorts. or elsewhere, and hurled forth
the dicttm that the feminine members
Of his flock must wear hats or bonnets
when they 60 to church. 1t may be
part of a bishops business in New Jer-
Soy to regulate matter of feminine
headgcar. Fortunately it is not 50 re
gardcd elsewhere. Perhaps there is
rothing worse in New Jersey than the
bare headcd girl for him to scold about,
though there is ut least crcumstantial
evidence to the contrary. As to the ef-
fects of wearing mats or not wearing
them upon the spiritual condition Of
young women. all husbands and ia Tiers
will agree that the sex would be much
better off had hats never been invented.
Who knows how many women have
sold their souls for hats? Think Of the
envy they have aroused the vanity
they have fostcred and the fhs they
have inspired. Surely the soul of wo-
men, not 70 mention her head and thu.
pocket book Of her husband. is better
off without hats Bishop Scarborough
has another guess due him.
