KNOCKERS NEXT LOGICAL STEP IN MILADY'S DRESS
SAYS DANIEL RYAN NEW YORK,S OLDEST DESIGNER

New York. March 16.-Knickers.
They're coming.
They're coming for everyday use
for women! Next logical step is
from short skirts to Knockers!
Just as surely as the hoopskirt
became the hustle skirt. Just as
surely as the hustled skirt became
the full skirt. Just as surely as the
full skirt became the hobble skirt
Just as aurely as the hobble skirt
became tie short skirt. Just so
will the short skirt become the
knicker!
So says Daniel Edward Ryan.
RYAN is the best known designer
of women's wear. He is 81 years
old. the Oldest designer in New
York, and so has watched the pass
ing of the years and the passing
of fashions.
Now when / say knickers," says
Ryan, specialized and lavender
socked, 81 do not mean boomers
bloomers are sloppy and crude. L
refer to a neat, well-out knicker
with a smart jacket and a vest, if
woman wants to wear one.
BUSTED skirt? Ridiculous!
Long, sweeping skirts? Unsan-
itary!
"Hobble skirts? Dangerous!
"Short skirts? Sensible.
"Knickers? - All - they're the
thing! SensibleI Beautiful"
Thus says Ryan-and further:
Copied the Stage.
Women of the ordinary walks
of life watched stage women dis
play their legs and win admiration
with their beauty. And they rea-
soned-each one-why not try 1t
herself?
so, under the influence of the
theatre, skirts began to get shorter
and shorter until they pretty nearly
reached the knees. That is one of
the best movements for freedom
women have ever made.
Short skirts leave a woman leg
free-and so, safe on her feet. And
why should she cover her legs?
I'll tell you," Mr.. Ryan wag-
ged his head, the young women of

.HILDEBRANDT IS
TO HEAD STATE
YEOMAN GROUP
Chairman to Secure Illinois L0ca.
ton for Home Selected from
Rock Island County.

Otto F. Hildebrandt, secretary Of
the Rock Island Chamber Of Com
merce, has been appointed chair
man of the Illinois committee which
will present claims of this state
for consideration for location of the
$4,000, 900 home for children to be
erected by the Brotherhood OF
American Yeomen. Bernard II.
Burns, district manager, was mott
fed of the appointment of Mr.. Hill
debrandt by the state manager, II.
w. Meyers, Wheaton.
There are Is Yeomen districts In
the state, and the probability is
that one or more representatives oil
each district will compose the
committee. Men who represent Tie
order in a field or executive ca
pacity will be barred from appoint
ment Those appointed Will con-
stitute working organization
which will have for its goal the
location of the children's home
within the state of Illinois.
Members OF the committee will
confer with the five directors OF
the order, empowered to select the
location of the institution, on the
visit which the directors Will make
to Rock Island about the middle OF
April, following their session IN
Des Moines.
During the directors visit, a sec
opd homestead of the Woman
order will be constituted in Rock
Island. Petitions for membership
in the organization are being circu-
lated and the outlook is for large
class adoption.
The personnel of the state COM
mittee will be announced in the
near future. District Manager
Burns said today that the appoint
ment of a Rock Island county
chairman was significant and full
of promise for the location of the
home in this county.
He said that the chairman would
probably confer from time TO time
with officials of the order in Des
Moines and Chicago in addition to
his conferences with his fellow
committeeman.
The appointment of Mr.. Hide
brandt came as a surprise, but he
has expressed his willingness to
serve, and will put forth every eff
fort to have his committee recon-
mend a Rock Island county loca-
ton for the mammoth institution
which in many respects will par
allel Mooseheart, erected several
years ago near Aurora, ILL.,, by the
Loyal Order of Moose. The Yeo-
man home probably will excel that
plant in its scope.
