spirit; and It's history is resplendcnt
with good deeds. The Civic league ORR

induce the women OF the United States to unite
In robbing Easter Sunday OF its significance as

to the new mandate 1t was not to be consid-

wardrobe. She might display her new treas
ures-for, OF what use would nice clothes be
to a woman If she could not show thenl-on
the Sunday preceding Easter or on the Sunday
following Easter at any other time, but the
custom was to be decried OF turning Easter In
to n grand review for marshaling the newest
products of the dressmakers, the bootmakers
and the milners
The new plan was all very we'll In theory
but the persons who suggested 1t evidently did
not figure on the persistency with which the
daughters OF the republic cling to cher
ished prerogative. The American women SIM
ply declined to abandon their Easter fashion
parade and consequently the seasons surprises
in new raiment continue to be indispensable

arc the Easter lilies and the Easter eggs. The
credit for the preservation OF the traditions or
the Easter fashion parade Is given TO the
women because IL Is the members OF the lair
sex who both as spectators and participants

supporters of the function. At the same time
II would be idle to insinuate thar many OF the
opposite sex have not succumbed TO the infiu-

realized that It is virtually standon between
those who walk and those who ride.
In point of numbers participating, easily the
greatest Easter fashion parade in America is
that which takes place on this eyentul day on
the Boardwalk at Atlantic City. People flock
from all sections of the country 10 the New Jer-

The Atlantic City parade OF fashion starts In
the morning, though it is not timed to accord
with church services for the simple reason
that only small propo rtion OF the Easter Wis
itors to Atlantic City take time TO attend d.
vine worship on this day OF days. Instead they
spend their time on the great wooden high
way-walking or riding IN those odd and lazy
wheeled chairs pushed by porters propelled
by tricycles. At Atlantic City also there is an
other fashion parade In the afternoon. though
to be strictly accurate We should not say AN
other" In reality It is continuation OF the
same grand march or the gaudy dressers. How
any OF them manage to get lunch is mystery.
