other than grateful to Mr.. Davis
for calling attention to this matter,
and for giving specific figures such
as may indicate the extent 10 which
the neglect is prevalent in q particu-
lar city. That the city Is Chicago is,
for the purpose OF what Is here being
said, merely incidental The lesson
of the figures is lesson that pa
plies more or less accurately. every
where in the United states. Their
Significance is clear in the case,
cited in the news article here referred
TO, of "a Christian man ami one of
the ablest in the legislature" de-
ieated for denomination for lack Of
three votes. while 20,Sj0 registered
voters In his district did not vote, and
in one church of the district 81 men
were found TO be not registered. Add
also the denomination for the lesis
lature OF politician, under indictment
on the charge Of bribery, By total

are numerous, while 2iO36 voters ne

undertaking TO enforce the sunday

teated for denomination BY 1853 votes,
while 226.7s3 registered voters stayed
away from the polls. Conditions such
as these, US Mr.. Davis points out

are contending for righteous govern

this anti-saloon worker declares, 10
per cent OF the churchmen neglect to
vote in the primaries, yet the total
number OF qualified voters in the
churches exceeds by 50 per cent the
officer.
OF course the thing to do about
these figures is TO consider them not
in the light of j discouraeement. but
as an incitation TO new effort. What
can church members of any WELL
meaning sort, whatever the denomi-
nation, think about them except 10
think OF them as pointing an oppor
tunity? Surely the conditions here
discussed can fairly be brought for
ward for consideration with the re-

the propriety as matter Of church
activity has been seriously questioned,
That survey, in some quarters, how
ever, was believed TO mark u new

FASHION EXPERT BACKS
UNIFORM SCHOOL DRESS
Georgette Waist and Fancy Clothes
Out Of Place. She Says. While
Girl Pupils Protest.

What is the most appropriate style
OF dress for the high school girl dur
ing school hours?
This question has been left open 10
discussion by the recent action or the
District Congress OF Mothers and
Parent Teachers Association in rec
ommending to the Board OF Education
| that a uniform style OF dress for the
school girl be sdopted-that OF the
MILDLY blouse and the blue skirt.
The girls were not at all enthusi-
astic about the proposed style or
recommendation which puts a ban on
tho georgette waist. silk hose, and the
use of cosmetics, and high heels.
1t was simply too cruel to ask them
to give up the georgette cause in
what else can a girl look sweet and
pretty and what else was girl made
for? As for high heels, why, didn't
you know that the sudden change
from the high to the low fiat heels
was torture, because II caused pains
up the back? Where's your learnin'
anyway? As to the lip-stick-weli,
that's a subject that most girls are
quiet about. Silk hose, however, are
an absolute necessity. Lisle stock
ings cause excessive persptration.
So, while recommendations galore
were nohc WoS ico'y So'oAoN
tory or convincing.
Now comes Madame Bertha FASTER
max, modiste. and importer, who
knows everything there is to know
about what schools girls ought 10
wear in the school room or in the
drawing room or in any room. who
says that the mothers and teachers
are right about the uniform style
of dress in school.
She heartily endorses the MILDLY
blouse and blue skirt as the proper
dress for the high school girl She
says:
'-The MILDLY blouse and blue skirt
are the most appropriate dress for the
school girl They are simple, girlish,
neat, as school girl dresses should be.
For a change the one-piece serge dress
is commendable. (Now comes the
'unkindest cut of aIP.) "The georg-
ette waist Is decidedly out or place
