A new blacklist has been establish
ed la New York and this time e IS
the fruit Of the efforts oC women who
cannot tolerate anything which brings
them too much into the limelght for
extremes which sometimes call for
stern robuko from "a fashionable nui.
pit. I'm the Washington Herald from
New York comes this peculiar story:
No moro low neck gowns. highbals.
cocktails. popular songs. handsome
cabs, or poek-a-boos,
This. IN effect. is tho pledge of the
Philocaliau, new club composed ~
four-and-twenty prominent club Wa
men. who have banded together FOR
the good Of society and the extinction
OF those things on which they have set
the seal of their disapproval
No more the after theatcr rarcbi!

of members ~ the smart set drink
and wear low-neck gowns en- public
said Mrs. Wallorstein today eff has
bad influence on people in AN walks
OF life. 7 don't say 10 is "a sin. but 10
certainly is bad example to- set tho
young.
GOWNS CUT TO COLLAR BONE.
ooh. I DON'T mean that our collars
will be high AN the time. We will
wear them cut down 90 the clavicie.
that IS. the collar bone explained Dr.
Wallcrstein smiling. And let me re-
peat that IL Is not right for women 10
e. into restaurants and cafes and nom
chalantlv order cocktails and high
balls. Why. do you know some young
girls are as familiar with the differ
ent kinds OF drinks as is a man OF the
world.
Another thing is the supper after
the theater. I deplore the fact that
young girls go 10 supper with young
men after the theater. Even If the
girl is engaged TO the man. she should
not go TO supper with him after the
theater. Let her go on home and have
supper there. Any girl OF mine would
have to do this. IL would make no
diGerneoe how nice the man was.
HOPE TO MOVE PUBLIC OPINION.
Il know it is perfectly conventional
now TO do these things, but we are
pledged 60 do our best 10 change pub
lie opinion. Then IL viii stop.
mot that we lack confidence in the
girls but one step leads 10 another.
The girl goes to the cafe after the
thcater. and takes a cocktail II goes
90 her head--and she Is taken home
In hanson cab The cab habit is
another thing which ] deplore."
Mrs Wallcrstein said that she secs

makes her heart stand still"
do you know she said "the
other day. while ! was driving home
-"
Not in q hansome cab?" she was
asked
"Oh, no, was in nay carriage" and
she continued. when I was shocked
10 see several girls walking down
Broadway singing popular songs quite
loudly 1 also very often see young
girls standing talking 10 young men
on street corners.

fetal than a place OF entertainment Tor

friends. The young demand enter
