S, That street walkers of Paris nro getting thu styles for tho women and girls of America, and that tli latter aro un wittingly following these styles be cnuso they are Paris rowns Is th-i conclusion reached by Uudolpii Tony, editor of the "Garment llevlew " oC Chicago, who after several erkl spcclat study of styles In Paris, sailed today for Now York. "It took me Just about two diy.t In Paris to get at tho root of thli wild orgy en dlihablllo In which u m.uiy perfectly respectable women a.o In dulging." said Cony today. "The dcml:nondalnc8 of Paris aro dlctat ting the Mjlea to use, and the hired models of the great dressmaking firms nro helping tho women of tho Pnltcd States along to what, if tho crate continues, wilt end in practical nudity provided the weather Isn't too cold. "Here Is tho way It werks: A buy er goes to Paris looking for some thing new and novel. What be par ticularly wants Is something dutlnc tlvely Parisian, so when he sees r. potty woman In the Hue de la Patx, at Longchamps, or some 'such place, wearing n strange but exceedingly daring gown, probably spill half way to tho whist and showing the wom an's form as plainly as if sho woru i wore tights, only, he Immed iately makes -jotc of l.n 'tr n. Then he sees other gowns wliltU revel' 'even more of the wearer's form than tho spilt skirt, and not knowing that these langerous, apparently wealth women are merely members of ths underworld, he gets his Ideas to gether, goes to a designer nnd hat his ideas worked out. What will bo the end of this orgy? America will set her own styles. It won't be in a day but It Is bound to come. It may not como for twenty years unless tho present tendency' to halt nakednex on the part of our women continues. It would only take halt as long ir the tendency next year Is to go a little better or rath er a little worse In tho matter of ex hibiting parts of tho female form which bavo hitherto remained con cealed. "It Isn't always daring styles which will hurry tho time when America sets own modo of dress. Tho nidi cons harem skirt of sonio years back was a Paris blunder which set thtf tlmo up tivo years. There Is really no reason why America shouldn't set the styles. Wo do it in shoes and clothes. No well dressed Freshman wears English shoes now and few of them wear English suits. "Tho wholo attitudo of American women toward French styles, Is rt foolish one. If they would sit down and analyso the question and were fair with themselves and the Ameri can designers and makers, they would see bow perfectly ridiculous they sometimes make themselves." PERSONAL PURITY I COURSES AUGHT C A SCHOOLS HINDU TO TEST TO ALIENS SAN FRANCISCO, Cnl., Aur. 8. Through former United States District Attorney John L. McNub, Hari Singh, u Hindu graduato of Edinburgh university, today has an nounced liis intention of testing whether the president, by executive order, can bnr any c1ii.sk of aliens, as a nice, from entering tlio United Stntes. It is expected tho case fin ally will be enrried to tlio United Stntes supreme court. It will be brought up first beforo the commis sioner of immigration nnd the de partment of labor. Action is to he based on tho ex ecutive order recently issued by Immigration Commissioner General Cuminelti ordering the deportation of twenty-five Hindus held at Angel Island hero. The detained Hindu arrived hero mostly from the Phil ippines, mid they will be deported unless hnbeus corpus proceedings are instituted by McNub or'othor ac tion taken to pi event tlio carrying out of Cuiiiiiirtii's order. "Jf it is possible for tlio president to bnr ulicns in this manner, such ns the order relating to (huso Jilii Auk," said McNub today, "thru an order ciiii Ijo issued prohibiting Frenchmen, Ilaliaiis, I'ngllblimoii or those of any oilier rnru from stor ing thU country, Is a fiicllwi if tlio president Iiiim nuy sucli power of prohibition without li'ulxliiliiii on tliu subject, uud litem is no luw tntv prat wiling- IfifliluM cowing in liuju." Willi Mvdford (ratio Is Mud ford mude, CHICAGO. Aug. 8.- Willi lite eoniinir of the full term of lite Chi cago public ehool lint n few weeks distant, Superintendent Kiln Fluirg Young admitted today Hint she w made no definite selection of the men uud women who are lo citiduet elates in the new "peioiml puritv" course to be launched in the Chi cncii high school. She will call a conference of high school principals within n week lo hear suggestions. "We feel that we have taken u radical. almot n revolutionary "tcp, in adopting the personal purity course in Chicago,'' said Mr. Young. "We realise that other eit ie will cloelv watch the working out of the venture nnd will take it up if Chicago U snece.ful. We who have advocated thi course feel certain of snece, which will menu that in another generation ftile and prudwli standard will bo swept away with Hip proper trniiiiuc of children. We will be careful in man ping out our coure nnd In chooing our instructor!, for we want to be certain of our ground before we go nhend." Applications for position n in structors have come lo the office of Mrs. Young from score of phvie inns, men nnd women. While Hip teacher will he recruited largely from member. of the medical pro fession. Mr. Young declared today that careful personal investigation i being mnde to determine the phy sicians who are most competent t dieu sex questions before high school pupils. "Many physicians and scientific men," she said, "hnve their sene of delicacy blunted hv the yen nature of their work. Their pyehilogv is too far removed from that of the child. Their minds move in n dif ferent sphere nnd their filnes will be determined not nlone on their standing n physicians, hut also on their understanding and tact in handling delicnte subjects so that we can avoid at the start nny shock to the young boys nnd girl. We must hnve instructors who can meet the pupils' mind properly. "Of course there will he segrega tion. Hoys will be taught by male instructors nnd girls will have wo men instructors. The classes will be divided into small groups smnll enough for the instructors to obtain tho personal, confidential effect. "Thero will be no text books no printed matter that might be subject to wrongful interpretation, or nny interpretation nt nil by the pupil who nro at n formative nge. In struction will bo solely by lectures. But we will expect pupils to nsk questions in class groups. If the course is successful in the high schools we may institute a course fit for the grade schools. At firnt we shall present only n limited view of the course. Within u few weeks we hope Hint the boys and girls will como to accept instruction in sex questions with no different attitude than Hint which they might hold to instruction in algebra. Wo believe firmly this will come. When thev arrive nt that slnte of mind tho courso will be broadened and made thorough." iheISsiir of oregon in auto M O.
