Women Insist on
Long Dresses
For Formalr
BY ELEANOR GUM

NEW YORK - The entrance OF
~the short dress into the night
scene is a disturbing factor. Some
held that the situation. being what
1t is. amply justified women in
choosing short rather than long
skirts. It simplified not only dress
ing but living. 1t did away with the
necessity of hiring taXis and it also
did away with the necessity for for
NAL or full-length evening wraps.
The short formal dress has been
tried and found wanting for the
best of all reaSonS-WOmen prefer
to wear long dresses. which, con-
Sidering how much better they look
in them. is not difficult to under
stand. OnlookerS insist that long
skirts far outnumber short ones.
although they do admit that there
are some exceedingly well-dressed
women who wear short. but other
wise formal. dresses.
The arguments for the short
skirt are as good as ever, but II
women insist on wearing long ones
what is there to do about 1t but
let them have their way. as long as
they own long skirts or sufficient
material for them is permitted?
The same with pleats. Very shall
low ones may sometimes be man.
aged and when the materials used
are not restricted. one may have as
many pleatS as one wants. In fact.
one of the best sellers of the cur
rent season is pleated. While there
are some slim and slithery evening
dresses. they are still outnumbered
by the bouffant dresses of nom
priority materials. such as laces
and nets.
At the risk Of being considered
monotonous, I must repeat that
black leads. But the younger crowd
is wearing a good deal Of white.
Slim dresses rather naturally are
of heavier materials, the bouffants
being. as is usually the case. OF net
or some sheer.

From Dewey
BY TALBOT LAKE

GOVERNOR DEWEY of New
~ York State, conservative hope
full Of the Republicans, has ap-
pointed his first woman to a job in
the State government. She is Miss
Ruth M. Miner. so stalwart party
member that she said she was
born a Republican" Miss Miner
is to be the Executive Deputy Sec
rotary of State. She replaces Miss
Doris I. Byrne. a Democrat.
Ever since she graduated from
Wellesley College in 1916. Miss
Miner has been interested in poll
tics and civic affairs. She is law
yer. In the Women's National Re-
publican Club. Miss Miner has been

the ms and outs Of politics and the
running of state affairs. In her new
job she will keep supervisory eye
on all the departments of the Office
and act as assistant to the Secre-
tary of State of New York. Thomas

The new appointee has bright.
flashing eyes, light brown hair and
a ready smile. She is q smart,
ough conservative. dresser.
Though she appears to have spent
much of her time out Of doors, Miss
Miner protests that she hasn't be-
cause she has had so little time for
recreation.
Her most recent work was as an
advisor to Army officers who have
been recruiting WAACS. She has
also been employed as an agricul-
turist for the Women's Land Army
Campaign. About this work and
the use Of women in it. Miss Miner
said:
II believe there is much that wo-
men can do on the farms-at least
in certain types of work. They can
be exceedingly helpful in truck
gardens, and in fruit farms. On
larger farms, where machinery is
used. the women should be more
widely used. Things have changed
on those farms. Nowadays much of
the labor is done by machinery.
and women are adept in learning
to handle harvesters, hay leaders.
milking machines and tractors"
Miss Miner has a seven-acre
farm at Slingerlands. a suburb Of
Albany. After graduating from
Wellesley. she attended the Albany
Law School. She became interested

The Guides spent four days in a
mobile camp. hiking miles across
the moors from base to base. sleep
Ing out and carrying all their per-
sonal equipment on their backs.
One OF their members wrote Of
their adventures:
1.-THE first night We camped in an
empty school, and the next morn
ing we were told to feed the Home
Guards at q place on the summit Of
the moors. It took us Ave and a
half hours to get there. and we
carried our personal equipment on
our backs. while two hand carts
were loaded with food. bedding
and cooking equipment.

Ideas about improving our equip
ment and our kit. For instance, al

Another interesting glimpse into
the activities OF British women
may be had from a story of how
girls have been tried out in search
light battery activities. It now may
be told that searchlight batteries
operated entirely by women of the
Auxiliary Territorial Service have
been in action several times lately
against enemy raiders - and the
girls have won high praise from
senior army officers for their per-
Torrance.
The experiment of using only
girls on the batteries has been kept
secret until its success was assured.
Volunteers from the ATS. were
chosen for both physical toughneSs
and high intelligence, for they had
to absorb technical knowledge and
learn how to operate both heavy
and delicate instruments. The In
structors found that women were
highly adaptable to the work be-
cause they had the great precision
OF touch needed.
Take Toughening Course
The GERS have gone
through q special toughehing- up
course to fit them for their outdoor
work. One group was taken out Mt
night in closed trucks. given a map
and told to make its way back to
camp on foot. q distance Of seven
mileS-which they all succeeded in
doing.
