its advent and the condemnation OF
many wishes to perform her devotious
at st. AnthonY's Catholic church. she
must first rush home and change her
! habiliments for something more like
the garments grandma used to wear
When the pink possessor of one of
those summary, low-cut sleeveless
dresses desires to attend services in
the same church she must don some
thing more suggestive of the soIemnity
of the occasion than is implied in the
name "peeh-a- boo"
Father O. n. Jackson, pastor of St.
Anthonys has taken firm stand in
the matter He believes that these
vanities have no place in the ceremo-
MES of the church. He believes that if
the women are forbidden wearing such
raiment in church they will cease wear
ing them on the street When they
cease wearing them in the street, he
thinks. a great good will be done wom-
anhood.
Immodest Clothing Worn.
Therefore, he has announced that in
the future there will be no persons pos
sessed of peek boo" in the pews of
his church. while the hobble skirt will
be greeted with equal disfavor.
1T is a deplorable fact that there
are many young women in Atlanta
streets daily who wear immodest cloth
ing" said Father Jackson. THE Cath
olic church is against such custom,
and l mean positively to forbid such
dress in my church
by immodest clothing | mean the
clinging skirts and low-cut or sleeve
less waists often seen In the most pub
lie places. Such dresses viii not even
be allowed in a church reception here.
when in the business section of the
city l have often seen young women
dressed in costumes that are little less
than shocking. They bring remarks
from men on the streets when the
pass down the street.
Want to Show Pretty Necks.
Il think the women do not intend to
do the harm their suggestive costumes
bring about. They are vain-have
pretty shoulders. a beautiful neck or
shapely arms, and simply like to show
them. Fashions are formed by this
same vanity. New dresses are some
times introduced for no other reason
than they display the graceful lines of
a woman's form-and a dress that does
this is always a popular one.
"A suggestive dress is more harmful
than a vulgar costume. The latter
would arouse disgust in men. AS 1t is,
some dresses of the latest fashion bring
ideas of lax morals to the young men
who view them, That is why they will
not be allowed in my church. At serv-
Ice worldly thoughts should not be
aroused, and l believe one of the most
common causes for them is the dress
of some of our women. They must have
the entire body covered with the cloth
ing approved Of by our modest people,
if they wish a part in st. Anthonys
church"
Father Jackson spoke of the present
day costumes of women upon learning
of such dresses being barred from
services by Cardinal Cavalari, at
Vienna, recently. The cardinal spoke
from his pulpit and stated that he
would in future bar such dresses from
his church
