The most extreme of modern styles
in women's dress is the shame Of the

DR.. Riley declared that men are not
pleased with the brazenness of women
in Haunting their suggestive attire on
the streets.
We are not pleading for a return
to hoopskirts," Dr. Riley said, but
insisting upon decency When Ohio

walking the streets is open to arrest,
