PRESENT STYLES HlDEOUS
Mrs. Marshall Thinks They Are ArEu-
ment Against Votes for Women.

lSDeClaI tO'Ine Times DlSDa ten.
Washington. September 2S.-That
present day styles are hideous and de-
grading to womanllind, and that they
are an argument against votes for
women. Is the opinion of Mrs. Thomas
r. Marshall, wife of the Vice-Prcsi-
dent
Il think that the styles are being
carried to the extreme. and the women
appear TO have lost their sense OF pro-
priety. am thankful to say. however
that there are large class Of women
who VIII neither purchase nor allow
their daughters to wear these hidcous.
immodest freaks of fashion The
mothers in the homes can control this
evil to a great degree. as they can
others. Until women can correct their
present form of dressing. they cannot
sensibly ask for the ballot; for I GER
tainly think that the present-day dress
is an argument against votes for
women"
Mrs John a. Logan. the grand old
woman of Washington society, is as
severe as Mrs. Marshall in her criti-
cism against present styles.
Mrs. Logan said:
Il am in favor of the good old styles
as against the sane and the insane
think sports and the present day
dances have something to do with the
spirit OF 'undrcss.' The waists arc cut
too low and the skirts draped too
high"

the weather observer that this morn

insisted that those conditions sustain

Meteorology Is not an exact science
