having her skin tailored to remove the
wrinkles, or have a permanent wave put in
her hair. No woman for sister woman
would pass up the chocolate box, and a dou-
BILE portion of butter on her toast, and sue
culent gravies, and everything else she likes
to eat, to acquire a sylph-like form. No
woman would go through the agony or
wearing shoes three sizes too small for her,
and with heels under the middle Of her feet
that make every step torture for the sake
of having other women marvel at her Gin
derellas.
No. Women like other women to admire
their clothes, and their general appearance
because that is the tribute that one artist
pays another artist, but there is profit in
another womans tribute. 1t is the men that
it pays to please, and so, naturally, wom-
ans efforts are directed in that quarter.
This is perfectly natural because women
know that fine feathers make fine birds.
They know that the most beautiful living
picture is still more beautiful if it is hand
somely set with the right background and
that even the homeliest chrome can be CIV
en- a frame that will camouflage it's lack of
drawing, and muddy colors, and make it
worth hanging on any mans home walls.
Furthermore, a woman knows that not
one man in a hundred can distinguish be-
tween woman and her clothes. He gets a
general impression Of lovely colors and
shades, and flowing lines, or Crisp smart
ness and he doesn't know whether it is the
woman, or her dress and hat that he adj
mires.
Now in order to have a good time, to have
masculine attention, to have partners at the
dances and to be taken to places of amuse-
ment, and to eventually secure husband, a
woman must be able to catch the masculine
eye, and snare the masculine fancy, and she
dresses That is the explanation OF the
bizarre fashions that have prevailed for the
last year or two.
The war killed off so many men that there
have not been enough left to go around
premium. It is the struggle between women
to\ attract to themselves the masculine gaze
to hit men between the eyes, as 1t we're
that has made women cut their skirts short
er and shorter, and bare their knees, and
bob their hair, and wear as few clothes as
possible. It's been nothing more, nor LESS,
than millions of Salomes throwing away
their seven wells as they dance before Herod.
And If men don't like it, they can stop II
tomorrow. All they have got to do to re-
form feminine fashions, and make modesty
the vogue is to pass up the frivolously dress
ed girls, and devote themselves to girls
who are suitably and conservat1vely att1red.
In a week there wouldn't be another bare
knee or back, in the community.
For women dress to please men, and men
have only to turn their thumbs down on any
fashion to have it slaughtered on the spot
