Hbiim of Natkmallj Adwortiaod Morohaiidiae
than an Inquiring reporter gathered
after he had sought the unblasod
opinion of the male persnailon
anent the new long skirts that have
come Into vogue.
7*(ow. if you bad asked m< what
I thought of the new chapeans for
the damea, I would have been glad
to hare giverKjron a statement and
permitted myself to be qnoted,” said
one prominent buslnese man, but
I am not going lo stick my neck
out on this skirt matter.
“Howevar," be continued, "I like
them shorter and higher, and who
doesn’t. A thing of beaoty Is a Joy
forever.”
Mr. M. bespoke the opinion of
some ten men who were questioned.
"What do yon want me to tonch
upon,” said Mr. C. (He waa told
that- the question did not Involve
touehlttg). ”TerrlbIe, I like
the new etrie at all—at aO.”
Mr. U -I don’t like R. My wife
don’t like M—says it hampars free
dom of the knee and besides there
M Dp point in hidlug pretty thtegs.”
Mr. Me. Ith Just aaothar eoheme
to fleece the nmn ont of wmie more
•ImoleanA I don’t like them long
Mr. R. Reminds me of my grand
mother, h«t for the love of Mike
dan*t meBtlou my name reaeon—
marital aacmity,”
Mr. S. ‘1 like them long, I like
tkem ebort, I like-bathing snits,
alacks,-ia fact, I like women.”
Mr. L. "SomeoDe is always
pulling the shades down oa the lit
tle pleaenres of life.” -
Mr. H. "I’ve been marking hems
for a week now while the little
woman seeks to get her dresses and
skirts Jast tha right length from
the floor. You ask me what I think
Why should we. permit Paris tc
set our styles. We can do it our
selves. I think that every woman
should wear the style most becom
ing to her. A good dress should re
main in style for several years.
Good taste says that a woman
should not be etmspiclous at any
time.’’
Mrs. M. informed us that she
hads..h«r hems down now to 14
inches from ..the floor^-at least,
when she could get them there.
The only minister, who was ac
costed by the innlrtng scribe
shrugged his shoulders and replied,
"No comment”
Here in Camden we are wonder
ing if the local girls will form an
LBK club. ’This means "Little Be
low the Knee", and la qoita a nim-
her of commonltiea, the Idea has
been greeted with acclaim.
One Camden maiden, who was ac
costed by the Inquiring reporter
said that this winter she plans to
wear the clothea that look heat oa
her—the styles we have right now.
"’There Is no reason for any girl
to cover up her legs—for they
really are her best selling points,”
she said.
X "What do you think abont it?”
was a frequent question popped at
this reporter. Well we’re going to
get it off onr chest and tell the
blankety blank truth. I think the
designers and those In the drees
Industry are trying to get by with
murder. With half the world beg
ging for material to cover Its naked
backs, there Is no Justlflcatlbh for
the drastic changes proposed,
pvery month we are sending pack
ages of clothing to the .poor In
Europe and yet designers tell ns
to throw all onr old clothea ont of
the window. It’s just senselesA

Consider A Savings Account:
Over the past few years many of our friends
have found it both wise and convenient to
open Savings Accounts, setting aside i^nds
for a specific purpose and systematically add
ing to them from time to time.
Below we submit the upward trend of our
Savings Department during the past«five
years, we think it argues well for the future.
