Ban on Eccentric
Bathing Costumes

PARIS, Aug. 26.-Visitors at a popu-
lar seaside resort on the coast of Nor
mandy, chiefly famed for its bathing,
are in a state of anxiety mingled with
amusement over a proclamation of the
mayor posted in front of the dainty lit
tie bathing cabins lining the sandy
shore. The proclamation is as follows
Unusual, eccentric bathing cos
TUNES are forbidden.
Ladies who do not wish to wet
their costumes must nevertheless,
have them of discreet design.
Men who only appear on the
beach in order TO pose as athletes
will not be tolerated.
An inspector will visit the bath
ing cabins to insure that these reg
ulatiOns are strictly carried out
The mayors fat is not the result of
any complaint by bathers, who are now
discussing whether the authorities of
the seaside town ha evthe right to en-
force their own narrow prejudiCes" on
visitors amusing themselves in what Is
not local property, namely the sea The
mere display of the form of a man or
woman in bathing costume is not in
discreet. the bathers argue. They are
anxiOusly awaiting the advent of the
inspector.

Congressman Thanks God That
Good Women Have Risen to
Fight Fashions.

Women who shun the immodesty
and improperly of present-day fash
ions can be relied upon for the future
strength and posterity of the nation,
according to Congressman Thomas
Iieflin of Alabama Heflin today eX-
pressed his opinion of diaphanous
feminine drapery and the split skirt
craze as follows:
Il would Taraphrase the Scripture,
'By their fruits We shall know them,
and say by their dress or lack Of
dress we shall know them. The
evil genius OF lustful fashion through
immodest dress is playing havoc with
q certain class of women in this coHn-
try and setting a bad example for
others.
When the good women of the land
are calling upon certain State legisla-
lures and municipal authorities TO pro-
vide pains and penalties for women who
appear on the streets or in public places
in fmmodest and indecent attire we
are confronted with a condition that
should seriously concern us ala condi-
ton that the good women of the coun-
try are not tamely tolerating.
Thank God, the good mothers have
begun a crusade against this evil. Mil
lions of our women need nothing but
their innate modesty and inbred sense
of propriety to tell them what to wear
and what not to wear. To this class of
women, the home, the State, and the
nation must look for their strength and
Inspiration in all the years to come.
''The woman who instillS in her
daughter the principles of Gentleness
and modesty, and trains her up in the
way that she should go, has done more
for her day and generation than she
can ever hope to do by active partici-
patton in politics.
