lust why women suffragists should
have pockets in their skirts is a mys-
terry. Still they've got 'em, and they
make no secret of the fact.
Strange to say, this new fad orig
mated in Paris, where suffragettes
are rare. It has come to Atlanta via
New York. and has found favor here,
not only as an insignia Of the cause
b,,r for convenience sake.
According to Mrs. N. Springold, the
New York creator of fashionable
gowns. who imported the pocket
skirt. it is going to be the sensation
of the season.
Women. and suffragists especially
ought to hail the advent of the new
skirt with particular JOY she de-
cIared. because of the pockets. There
are two of them, one on each side.
And they are not stingy little affairs,
like the pockets that used to be put
in women's dresses in the ancient
DAVIS before Fashion frowned on such
features of feminine apparel"
In Atlanta a few of them were seen
at the recent convention of the Geor-
gia Woman Suffrage Association.
