URGES ORDINANCE CHANGE
Councilman Hall Favors Modifying
IT Boulevard Trolley Ordinance

Charles p. Hall, Ware leader il
Council, favors modifying the terms OF
the ordinance which would permit the
extension Of trolley tracks on the
Roosevelt boulevard to the Sears Roe
buck plant. in accordance with the sug
gestion made to Mayor Moore by the
directors Of the Chamber of Commerce.
The directors of the Chamber of Com
merce asked the Mayor to request
Council to amend the ordinance. so that
the p. r. T. would be more readily
able to market securities for building
the line.
THE Chamber of Commerce is alb
solutely right. The city ought to be
liberal and in order to bring about in =
creased transit facilities especially in
growing parts Of the city" said Mr..
Hall.
How can capital be expected to in
vest it's money in the city when such
restrictions ms we have here are placed ?
When this bill was before Council it
will be remembered that | voted against
the ordinance and explained at the time
that II would be difficult to get people
to invest in stocks and bonds for the
purpose of building railroad which
might possibly be wiped out in ten
years.
The Chamber of Commerce would
have Council strike out the custer clause
in the ordinance, which provides that
the city could force the p. X. II. to take
the tracks off the boulevard at the end
of ten years.

tall. slender girl can wear them almost
to her knees.
1--WE in the United States haven't
set any definite length. They vary from
eight to sixteen inches from the ground
1t mostly depends on shnpeliness OF
ankles and calves, although the style
Of the gown itself makes some differ
ence. Age doesn't matter so much for.
OF course, there are some mothers who
have. pretty ankles as well as their
daughters
Sixteen inches. just n triHe below
the knees, is the length used by most
sub debs. The average Philadelphia
woman will wear skirts nine or ten
inches from the ground this summer.
Or course, there will be few, who,
like. the English women, have 'rea
sons, whose skirts will swing only
eight inches from the floor"
All a Matter Of Form
Foremost authorities or fashion say
the skirt adopted by really nice French
women is ten inches from the floor. or
just at the shoe tops. But putting
shoe tops as the standard doesn't settle
the question. for some shoes are so much
higher than others.
Philadelphia modistes say English
women have adopted the eight inch
above the ground standard because they
aren't constructed to make an exposure
of calf and ankle either advantageous
or becoming. while French and Amer
lean women are.
And Philadelphia women will con-
tinue to use their own judgment con-
cerning length. guided in each case by
good taste and becomingness in dress.
