Dress Reform in Tampa.

The appearance Of 500 citizens Of
Tampa, FLA, in oversIls and calico. to-
cether with their pledge to refrain
from buying expensive clothes while
prices remain high, is amusing If we
view il simply as a community dem
onstration. But consider il as having
sufficient merit 70 be taken up serious
IN by communities throughout the
country and its effect in forcing down
the cost Of clothing becomes significant.
Prices stay high because there is a
steady demand FOR high-pricei goods.
Because men want silk shirts and are
willing 20 pay from seven to seventeen
dollars for them, silk shirts lead the
field. Let them insist on shirts of
cheaper material and the highprieed
silk ones will disappear into the back
ground. Because there is a ready out
let for fancy shoes az fancy prices,
