According to This, Modesty Is Very
Much a Thing of the Past.

Modesty is supposed to have come
over in the Mayflower, along with the
story Of Rebecca at the Well Since
then Boston has become psychological
and modesty has subliminal self.
There is a tradition that modesty
once lived in New York, but this has
never been proved. 1t is highly i'm
probable, especially as New York has
always had a smart set.
Modesty, indeed, is recluse. Her
pew in church has been given up She
never had box at the opera. She
would not dare be operated upon in
any hospital. The children would dis
concert her in any home. With no
roof to shelter her, no nourishment
to sustain her, she walks the untrod-
den paths, a miserable and discon-
tented thing Of the past.-Lippincott's
