GIRLS POCKETS OBSOLETE
the Place of Once Indispen- sable Article

Many years ago but still within the memory of few of us. women's s gowns possessed pockets sometimes even as many as three in single costume. Occasionally, when in reminiscent mood. some dear old lady will tell of the things she used To carry in her pocket, and the girl of the period lis- tens as 10 fairy tale The girl stuffs things into her purse and her chate- taine. into blouse and sleeves and hat What can she dc?
