AGAINST SKIRTS.
Harvard Doctor Thinks Trousers Are
Better For Women.

Il consider trousers for women to be
not only desirable from hygienic and
sanitary point Of view. but distinctly
desirable in the way Of economy and
simplicity" said Or. Sargent Of the
Hemenway gymnasium, Harvard.
They give freedom of movement.
they do away with the injurious cor
set. they are less immodest than some
Of our latest gowns. and they are in
every way more desirable for the girl
who works for her living.
Trousers are not a bit more I'M
modest than any other costume.
dare say that they would be far more
proper than some Of the extravagant
costumes that have become part Of the
fashionable woman's wardrobe Of to-
day.
TROUSERS are far more hygienic thar
are skirts. They do not gather dust
since they sweep clear Of the ground
at all times. They dc not catch disea So
germs. and the danger of infection
thus Is greatly diminished Moreov +.
think that the wearing Of trousers
would do away with corsetS. which
alone * enough to commend them II
thinking women. The evils q Corset>
are too we'll known to require COM
meut 1T this late day.
That trousers give greater freedom
to the body is self evident. Any one
who has seen some of our young ste
nographers run when late TO their Of
fees incaSed. as they mostly are. in
some form Of the hobble skirt will
readily see the advantage of trousers.
Sitting. standing. walking and run
ming the trousers have the advantage
over the skirt always for ease and
comfort"

the American Union have by statute
designated the first Monday OF Sep
TENDER as Labor day. America is
the first country in the world 10 have
such a Labor day and make it by
law public holiday. The designa-
ton of that holiday by the majority
Of the American states is recogni-
ton Of the rights and dignity OF la
Dor and is the result of the eyolu
ton Of the workman from condi.
ton OF bondage and serfdom TO a high
civil and industrial plane. In this
country perhaps more than in any
other civilized country today labor is
considered worthy of its hire. Pro
tective and humanitarian legislation,
looking to the amelioraition of the
of the laboring population
of the country. has been passed in
every state OF the Union. The state
of Washington is no exception. Per.
haps the greatest piece of construc
tive labor legislation that was ever
placed upon the statute books OF this
state is the workmen's compensation
law passed at the 1911 session of the
legislature"
After reviewing in detail the con.
G!.ions leading UP TO the passage OF
the workmen's compensation act, the
speaker gave a clear, convincing and
easily understood summary of the
law as it stands today

HUNTERS LICENSES

MONTESANO. Sept. 6.-The ques-

a minor came up last week before
Auditor Trask. There is no law pro.

fed. but there is law that makes it
a misdemeanor to permit boy under

OF any description, unless accompani-
ed by parent or guardian. who must
maintain an immediate presence, and
