Answers

Dear Miss Grey: I will
greatly appreciate your opin-
ion on a subject upon which
! often have stiff arguments.
What are the young girls
coming to? Do you not think
that instead of retaining
their modesty and womanli-
ness, they are gradually los
= ing both? Would the woman
of former days have appeared
in the streets with slit
skirt? Do you think that
any young girl with decency
or self-respect will do so? l
know it is put down to
STYLE" but do you not think
It rather an immoral as well
as immodest style? Thank
ing you. l am MISS PRIM.
A.-The pendulum of woman
hood has been wound too tight. Is
It any wonder that ut the release
of IL the tendency is to swing a
little too far the other way? The
girls are going to come out all
right-in time. When they get
through with their playthings-
slit skirts included-they will
throw them aside for something
Observation-Disclosures, 1 hope,
or at least something wide enough
to walk In.
1t is true that the woman OF
former days would not appear i'm
a slit skirt; but she DID appear
in hoops, and ENORMOUS bustles.
happen to know girls who are
modest, and decent, who do wear
slit skirts. They have formed the
habit of following the styles, and
do it as a matter of course, and
the one who harps too
much on the subject is the one
who has the evil thought about it.
do not for a wOment think l ann
uplIOlding the slit skirt. All the
kings horses could not induce me
to wear one, for l think IL the
silliest style invented, and some
how l hesitate to be classed with
silly notions.

NEW YORK CITY, Dec 26-North-
ern New York is today experiencing
the coolest weather of the present win
ter and in the crowded districts of
this city's east side, much suffering
is reported. The temperature dropped
suddenly last night. Christmas par
ties breaking up late last night were
the first to feel effects of the cold, the
freeze developing during the early
hours.
Several inches of snow falling dur
ing Christmas festivities covers the
city this morning in blanket of ice,
and thousands of workmen have OBJ
tanned employment, helping to clear
streets where heavy traffic has been
Interrupted. Municipal lodging houses
were crowded with unfortunate home
less ones last night, and all of the Sal
walton Army posts were filled to ca
pacity.
Thousands of tons of coal distribut-
ed by charitable organization as
Christmas gifts to poor families has
enabled many persons to avoid suf-
fering induced by the terrible cold,
while warm clothing distributed by
similar organizations, doubtless, has
prevented much sickness and dis
tress among the poorer classes.
In the Adirondack region, where the
lowest temperatures have prevailed,
the thermometer reached forty below
zero early this morning
