THE question of The low-necked Rown
has received fresh attention in New York
since the organization of the Philocslian
Club few weaks ago. The PhilOcalisn
Cluh-ihe name means Glove of the
beautifuP-hss membership Of twenty
four women, all bat four of whom are
married. lis Efforts, says the president,
DR.. Adelaide Wellerstein, will be direct
ed against factors which tend to demon
alize society, and its work will include
more practicing than preaching. Among
the things Of which The club does not ap-
prove are the low-necked gown, the
cocktail, the hanson snd sfter-thester
auppers. The twenty-iour members
have pledged themselves never to appear
in public wearing bodice cut lower
than the callarbone. Il is this circum-
stance in particular Thich has brought
fame to the club. But for that, it is con-
ceivsble that the new organization would
not have been heard Of outside of the
circle of liz members and their friends.
