s 1917. THE JIOKM.NU OltfctiOMAN. 3IONDAY, IsOVEMBKR 19, HALF-NUDE STYLES DECLARED DOOMED Modest Dresses to Replace Skin Tight and Freakish Gowns of Past Few Years. WALKING KILTIES TO GO Women Are Told That Before An other Tear They Will Have Something More Serious Than Styles to Consider. CTTICAGO. 111.. Nov. 18. (Special.) Well, it is evident that this sad old world is nearing its end. This has been predicted numerous times since a crazy Prussian began running amuck In Europe with a 1 oaded gun, but there was hope until the designers of women's garments announced today that next season's styles would be actually modest. The street ballet, the half-clothed flapper and the ladies in their walking "kilties" are all doomed to vanish next Spring. Modesty of the old-fashioned full length variety is to prevail, and will prevail so far as the garment-makers are concerned, for they will make only that kind of garments. Half-Nude Styles Stormed. Of course, the more daring dressers, or to be more exact, the undressers, can have their own peculiarly startling gar ments fabricated, but they will not be in style. Announcement was made today by the Designers' Association, which holds its annual convention and display Jan uary 15, that the time is here, per haps slightly overdue, to put an end to half-nude styles which have pre vailed for the last three years. Supporting their claims and inten tions, they permitted private inspection of a few of the leading designs. Hav ing been cut off from Paris and Vienna by the exigencies of war and the pernicious activity of the U-boats, women of the United States are sepa rated from the sophisticated influence of those style centers, and American designers have taken the situation into their own hands. President Lenny, of the association, eaid that the styles in both those cities were originated by the demi-monde, exploited by them, afterwards being copied by American women who thought them very "smart." Change ot Styles Waste. Aside from tBIs. there is the vital necessity of conserving materials. With styles changing every week and Trantic women trying to keep up with the procession, they waste enough ma terial to clothe the Nation. This is no particular benefit to the merchants, since they must lay in big stocks. Fashions may change over night and leave these stocks on hand to be sac rificed. President Lenny says one or two styles a year are plenty, and the asso ciation will endeavor to standardize the matter this year. It is understood the Federal Govern ment has hinted that action of this kind will be appreciated. It is al together possible that before another season women of the United States will have something more serious than styles to consider. Anyway, so far as the designers are concerned, the era of half-nude, Blimpsy, skin-tigTU and other freakish Garments is at an end.

It became plain yesterday, the lead ers asserted, that Oregon s aggregate from the "give-and-send" efforts of Its school students will run between $30,- 000 and $40,000, or more than three times their allotment. Portland's youths have to date given double the amount given by those of Seattle, reported J. C. Meehan, who has been directing the city school drives. A select and extensive vocabulary of superlatives has been overworked to exhaustion by Walter A. Goss, who has had the crusade in charge for the state outside of Portland, in attempting to express his astonishment and appreci ation elicited by results achieved by boys and girls of every quarter of the commonwealth. Scappooae liojvi Do Bit. Consider Scappoose. Two little school boys, Ernest Uhlman and Armand Dun can, hustled out In this village and took pladges in cash from their play mates aggregating $153.28. Their let ter to Mr. Goos reporting what they had done was accompanied by a draft veyed the spirit of the lads In these for the cash collected. $54.73, and con words: "We have certainly enjoyed the opportunity of helping the boys in the trenches and will be delighted in doing anything further in this line of work." There's no use speaking of the "Scap poo.se spirit," for the same zealous patriotism and generosity has been ex hibited in every section of-regon. Few schools of the state seem to feel they have accomplished much of anything in the drive until they have trebled or quadrupled their quotas.
