opinion that far more than one-third
of the fair sex are in favor Of style
changes. And there is bit of psy-
chology to apply to the results re-
ported in the business magazine that
possibly alters the resulting ratio.
The fact is that there is always a
large number of persons who habit
ually object to things as they are
just on principle, and this number is
very great, we have found, among
those who volunteer to express their
opinions in print. Probably great
many of the women who went on
record as Directing to fashion
changes in shoes, as a matter of fact,
would stop shopping with a dealer
who continued to sell them the same
style of boots and shoes year after
year.
On first thought changing styles
seem like such an unrea, enable
thing. We are guilty sometimes of
thinking that it is all a colossal
scheme of the merchants and man
ufacturers to insure the sale of new
goods each season. But there is a
good deal more to it than this.
Obviously if women did not demand
changing fashions they would not be
produced for no woman has to buy
against her will. Besides in the long
run merchants usually lose as much
the capricious change of
fashion as they ever gain.

HOW MANY WOMEN WANT
CHANGING STYLES?

dress?
Do you find pleasure in the fact
that this year your suits. your
frocks, your hats and even your
shoes are different from the ones you
wore last year, and that next year
they win be still differentf
Or would you like IT better If you
could be as sure that ten years from
now you would be dressed in the
same style you are now as the old
time Quaker and Puritan women
were sure of their immunity from
the germ of changing fashion?
A little while ago a prominent
business magazine sent out a lot of
circular letters to women asking
whether or not they favored a fire.
quent changing of styles or a con-
tinuation of staples in shoes.
The answers received showed that
about two-thirds OF the women who
replied were in favor of what the mag
azine chose to call meat staples"
and third of those who replied were
in favor of style changes. 1t would
be interesting to know whether the
same figures would hold true of
changing styles in other lines of
women's wear.
In spite of the figures it is our
The Washington herald., 1915-11-20

No, the demand for changing fash
ions in women's clothes is not so alb
surdly frivolous as it may seem. It is
quite clearly part and parcel with the
spirit that makes for progress and
advancing civilization. In old China,
where things were at standstill for
centuries. there were no changing
fashions in women's clothes. Now
that China is awaking women are re-
Hecting this spirit of progress by
demanding changing modes. To
do away with changing fashions
in dress one would have to do
away with much that makes life
interesting. A society that wore
the same sort of frocks and hats
from one decade to the next would
be a society that knew no styles in
literature, or art. We would still be
reading such novels as "Queeehy"
and Uncle Toms Cabin" and in in
terror decorations we would still be
content with the hair cloth "sofa,"
the dust gathering what not" piano
throws" chair tides and other afro
cities of our grandmothers.
Probably many women will con-
tinue to say, and actually believe, that
they dislike changing fashions in
dress, but thank fortune there are
S IN a few of them that we shall
continuesto have as many modes as
there are seasons and years.
