Atlanta high school girls are not
overdressed, neither are they painted
and powdered to excess" according to
Miss Jessie Muse. principal of the
Girls High school, today. Miss Muse
was quick to defend her 663 students
against the charge of immodest dress
ing made so often recently against
young women seen in the "Peachtree
Parade" which has 50 long been a
famous feature of Atlanta life.
There are very few of our girls who
ever come to school in anything but
proper dress continued Miss Muse
Yes, sometimes one of the teachers
notices a girl whose collar is turned in
too far or whose clothes are cut in a
fashion too Clinging for good taste and
sometimes there is one wearing too
much powder or a touch of artificial
color. But whenever this occurs the
teacher speaks to the girl quietly and
privately and that girl doesn't offend
again. We try to impress her with
good reasons why she should be more
careful, yet not in way to hurt her
feelings. And I've always found that
this sufficed."
Opposes Uniforms.
The proposal that high school girls
wear cap and gown or some other dis
tinctive uniform does not appeal to the
principal.
1--WE want our students to appear on
the streets just az Atlantans, not
branded as high school girls" said
Miss Muse College boys are often
guilty Of improprieties on the street
and in public places because they feel
that everybody recognizes Them as a
party of collegiaus and will laugh at
escapades which would be frowned
upon if INDUCED in by individuals. #
we dress our girls in a distinctive uni
form. they might have the same ten
dency TO larking that college students
often have"
Colonel Walter r. Daley president of
the board Of education, was quoted last
spring as fayorins a uniform for high
school girls, His reason was not 50
much the reported tendency toward

paint and powder and bad taste in
dress, but the constantly increasing
cost Of clothes worn to school by the
Weather girls and their less fortunate
companions who struggled to keep IN
appearances II was noticed last year
that high school students were wearing
such expensive and ornate costumes
that poorer girls could not keep the
pace set by the leading set. and it was
reported a that time that several girls
had left the school rather than face the
alternative Of straining their parents
pocketbook or feeling conspicuous in
reasonably priced clothing.
Spirit of Democracy.
Il believe uniforms would be a good
thing for the girls said Colonel Da-
ley at that time. IF the right To a
choice of dress is being abused by ex-
travagance an order by the board of
education requiring the wearing of
plain and simple uniforms might heal
lot Of heartaches And | have no.
ticed in girls schools where uniforms
are worn a spirit of democracy which
could not exist where a rivalry in cos
tune is permitted"
Mrs. John d. Pickett, chairman of
the board of lady visitors. said when
this topic was under discussion that
she would welcome any movement to-
ward simple girish dresses for school
girls. She said she was well aware Of
the tendency toward extravaganza in
dress

HUERTA STILL IN

Despite all reports from Mexican fed

tary OF war has concentrated all
the troops he can for his command

OF Col. ReynaldO DiaZ. and the 18th
under command Of Gen. Augustin A

Internationally. the orders which I
receive from my superlOrs, and so

If Gen. Huerta is anywhere near Tor
reon with a force OF men, he must have
left Mexico very suddenly and unex-
pectedIy since last Thursday. On
March %, more than two weeks ago,
the government sent out word that
Huerta had already left for the north
with an army corps to put down the
rebellion.
