G. Dickson, pastor of the Second
Baptist church of HoboI<cn, in II
letter to the newspapers of Hud-
son county, relative to women's
dress says:
"A few years ago II was the low
neck. More recently it has been the
'peels-a-boo' waist, the subject of
coarse jokes and low conversation
the country over. The fashion this
year has her slaves shortening their
dresses at the other end until they
are making themselves the objects
of side glancss and unclean talk on
the part of lowminded men every
where especially on windy day.
And now to cap the climax, fash
ion has decreed the sheath gown, a
dress making so immodest an ex-
posure of the wearer's form that any
respectable woman ought to be most
heartily ashamed to be seen wearing
it. In the name of God, | ask-yes,
in the name of purity and morality
what are our women coming to
81 believe that the way our women
are dressing themselves today is i'm
modest and impure and immoral in
