will eventually thrust her back to her pos

She is on trial.
Her capacity and willingness to be sub
stantiai civilisins factor hang in judg-
ment And. to repeat, there are many
serious and good men who are sorry to
admit that they must suspend judgment in
view Of the prevailing indecency to which
SO many women are contributing; sorry
to admit that they are not yet sure of be-
Ing able to take women seriously consider
ing the widespread frivolity of so many of
that sex.
Doubtless many readers will think this
a much ado about nothing as If a GER
tain freedom OF dress was, after all, only
prank or whimsy. Possibly they are right.
But, at least so far, cannot see 1t that
way. I know enough Clittle though it be)
Of history to know that indecency in femi-
nine attire has always gone hand in hand
with loose morals; that it was as much a
sign of social corruption as the sacerdotal
robes are of spiritual dignity and purity.
Clothes are not only protection from cold
and heat, but are as well the outward ex-
preston of a state Of soul.

ture Martha Washington Of simpler days
being garbed as any present-day debutante
or opera-box tenant; still less picture a
girl of the days of Roger williams going
out into the street as any woman goes now.
Again, let me insist, am not an author
ity on woman's dress. This subject is
really distasteful to me, precisely because
of It's unjust possible implications. write
on it really out of the deepest regard for
all women and out of a sincere pity for
their weakness. My real object is to try
to make them see, once and for all, that
they, as a sex, are on trial before the world
l wish them to make good and prove their
capacity as social factors. For, II they do
not, II the above described manifestations
of frivolous indecency persist, / am sorry
to say that man will, sooner or later, take
back the liberty so generously given them
by him, and reduce them again TO a con-
dition which had better be left unex-
pressed.
Fundamentally, believe in woman's ca.
pacity. To fix this firm belief have only
to recall the splendid work Of Christian
women from the days of Fabiola and Paula
on up to Clare Of Assist and Teresa and a
Mother Seton. But they worked along
lines which are regarded as obsolete by
the modern feminist and so suppose they
are too oldfsshioned TO occasion any sen.
sation. And such quiet women Of strength
will always be with us, Just as will all
quiet strong and benencent things, like
the green grass and the calm moonlight
and the cooling winds that blow across a
bank OF violets." My doubts and the
doubts Of men like me concerning women
refer to this newer and modern and noisy
and indecent type that at present usurps
the right to represent their sex.

GILL QUERIES MAYOR
 ABOUT OFFICE HOURS
Second Warder Suggests Curtis Spend More Time
 In City Hall.

Remarking that it would be fine thing for the constituents of Mayor Orson F. Curtis If he could so arrange matters that it would be possible for him to be in his office at times when people would like to see him on bus mess. and also devote one evening q week to his duties as the city's chief executive, Alderman John F. Gill of- fered such a suggestion to the mayor last evening at the meeting of the common council.
 The alderman from the second ward went on to say that while it may seem strange that a humble member of the council would have the temerity to suggest to the mayor what methods he might employ in performing the duties Of his office he felt that the benefits to be obtained warranted it.
 Mayor Curtis replied that he feared Alderman Gill was acting too hastily in bringing that matter to the council. He claimed for himself that he spent more time in his office than any previous mayor of whom he knew. When the bulletin boards which are now in the paint shop are placed in the main hall of the City Building, it will be possible for anyone to know during what hours the Mayor might bc found in his office. he explained.

PUBLIC ITSELF MAKES
 PRICES 60 DOWNWARD
Federal Reserve Board Mem. Der Explains Demand is
 Growing Less.

Charlestown, w. Va, Sept. 16.- The buying public has "rebelled against ever-mounting prices and has forced period of readjustment of valueS" Vice-Governor Platt of the federal reserve board declared today in a speech here before the annual co9vention of the West Virginia bank erS association. Analyses of the country's business condition with re- spect to the price situation disclose a marked lessening of demand, he said, adding that the refusal to buy was traceable directly to public senti- ment against high prices.
 Mir. Platt's speech. the first since his appointment, was designed as a reply to critics who had charged that the boards credit restriction and re- discount policies were responsible for the closing or part operation of scores of manufacturing establishments.
 Discussing the drop in prices of several consumable comm odities, MT. Platt said the courses followed by the markets indicated a restoration of the old law of supply and demand but he would not forecast the extent to which prices recessions would go. A lower range of prices would material ly lease up the credit situation" MT. Platt declared, expressing the fear that it also would increase grumbling and criticism"
 The speaker explained the board sought to conserve credit for producte and crop moving purposes and did not desire ito open the f1oodgates of credit for speculation for such would ab- sorb credit which might be employed in useful purposes"
