Modesty

These lines are attributed to a con-
victed man who recently spent short
term out of prison and found there
mad been a decided change in women's
Fashions since he had been incarcer-
ated.
When every pool in Eden was mirror
Which upon Eve her dainty charms
proclaimed,
She went undraped without a. single
fear
Or thought that she had need to be
ashamed.
twas only when she had eaten of the
apple
That she became inclined to be a
prude,
And found that evermore she'd have
to grapple
with the much-debated proolgm OF
the nude.
Therefore she devoted her attention.
Her time and all her money to her
clothes,
AND that was the beginning Of con
vention
And modesty, as well. suppose.
Reactions come about in fashions re-
cent
And now the girls conceal so little
from the men,
1t would seem in the name of all that's
decent,
Some one ought to pass the apples
round again. -Ex

Disabled Service Men
May Secure Government

j. c. Batten. a former resident Of
this city. of the district Office It
Minneapolis, representing the federal
board for vocational training is in
Grand Forks making a survey Of edu-
cational and training facilities Of the
city with q view to placing disabled
service men for training in local in
stttutions. He is accompanied by F.
w. Zeller Of the Fargo office.
I, The federal board is particularly
sdeErous of securing suitable trade.
1Achool and mechanical training inst1
in which. to establish disabled
'service men while receiving vocation
al education offered by the govern
ment.
! due to the fact thai this class of
institutions in the Twin Cities Is al
ready overcrowded, several men were
placed at the University Of North Da-
kota a short time aEo. 1t is possible
that arrangements may be made by
the university to accommodate the
service men with special trade and
mechanical courses.
That the federal board for voca-
tional training has been placed on a
sound basis Is shown by the fact that
III $4,000 injured service men are
now actually engaged in vocational
training. The work of the board was
of necessity slow at first and only
about 5000 men were placed up to
September /. Since hat date places
ment of men in training has been
ranid.

The short French skirt which has
been long talked about has finally ar
rived in a really, truly American
frock. American designers have been
slow to adopt the abbreviated skirt Of
Paris, but this little dance frock for
the d%ebutante steps boldly forth with
a skirt at least fourteen inches from
the floor. 1t Is not 50 bad, is It? In
fact If the slender girl wears it there
is nothing at all offensive about the
short skirt.
To fashion this frock soft .s,lvery
white brocade ia combined WITH silver
lace and trimmed with rhinestone
embroidery. The full skirt is gath
cred and pulled at THE lower edge
while the silver lake Is introduced at
the sides to give 4 pannier' effect.
From the bodice Of silver lace falls
a vine Of blossoms. This frock well
illustrates one general rule that may
be given concerning the new modes.
The bodice Of the new evening dress
is simple and the skirt is complex;
whether it be the quaint. tight fitting
little waist which goes with the
crinoline. skirt or the bodice which
introduces the classic skirt, both are
sighted in comparison with the skirt.
