Display of Garters at Assembly ' ;
: : Ball Shocks Prudish ; Society
Regarding the assembly hall.' last
week, where was gathered all the ex
clusive society and the ultra-ults, a good
deal of talk is ' going the rounds about
what was to see there. , The new sub
subject of conversation vies with the
ever popular bridge subject; it has invaded-
tne . luncheon' table, and the tea
room; it has even entered the sanctum
sanctorum of the cafes where men spen 3
their leisure hours. The men speak of
it openly and make bad- Jokes fit to ap
pear on the vaudeville stage; the women
speak. of it in whisper and; with ex
pressions of horror.
And It is all to do with the carrying
of. the train in dancing. Now, you
must know that the beauty of the
firesent long, slim lines In dress lies
n allowing the material to fall in soft
folds about the- figure of its own ac
cord.. Stiff foundations interfere with
such self -folds, and the solution is to
discard not only- the starched accessor
ies of our grandmother's days, but .even
the softer silken ones of later days.
But some of the conservatives hold
that it is not necessary to prove by a
lesson In sight reading that the folds
are automatic and that the interference
has been removed.' Others of the ex
tremely , conservative ' hold tha't ' lt' is
not necessary . even to .let everyone
know that your garters match your
gown. - Ana some even suggest tnat u
you wear tights, fin tolite lore, named
fleshings) , it, is just as well for-your
raaia oniy io- Know now wen mey in.
But some of .this nnkntlon.iiei an
old-fashioned and prudish that there Is
no-accounting for tastes and prejudices.
They probably --. would object t even , If
their voung women appeared In classic
sanaaia wun nanire a approved nosiery
which would do away -with the puzzling
question of garters. They are (he kind
that, would object to the .barebacked
circus elder.! go Inconveniently and
foolishly conservative. .
Now, of course, there mr' aome rea
son for objecting to the original dlrec
tolre gown with the silt akirt -, That
was suggestive ohi horrors, yes! But
there is nothing vulgar in this no sug
gestion; oh, dear, no! This I simple
and open hearted frankness. "
But still the talk goes on' and to
hear them talk you might believe they
were discussing the romantic days of

no matter what
kind ol a suit
you buy, y oii get
a pair of trousers
tree
f During the festive season, one
often feels the need of a black
suit. In fact, a black suit is a
requisite of every man's ward
robe. It is appropriate for al
most any occasion. Frequently
a black suit becomes useless be
cause the trousers are a bit shiny,
frayed or worn. You see, then,
why an extra pair of trousers
comes in handy. You will always
look neat. It is also dress suit
time, and no better line of even
ing clothes can be made than
ours. Even here an extra pair of
trousers is included. Then, again,
perhaps you have just concluded
that a new business suit is due.
No place like the Columbia shop
for that. Here, again, comes in
the free trouser proposition. And
all are made in true Columbia
fashion and style.
