Now Faslilon slags a grand
sweet Bong that gladdens many
lives; and women's drosses will
lie long before the snow arrives.
I know not w hy the fashion lords
have .bo ut out this decree, but
they're entitled , to , rowardH,
whate'br their niotlvoa be. For
there has been a plague of legs
while ' short .?(Twdh were the
style, and so the sad beholder
hegH A respite for a while. If
all the ladies' lega were shaped
from models ti Itn and true, I
would not ask , to liave them
draped and hidden from my
view. Thu, recent fashions have
made plain tho cold dad ghastly
trill h that legs, crown older,
don't maintain the graceful
curves of youth. Tho llmhs ex
poHetl to wind and sun stir up
emotions dire' for not two wom
en in a ton have legs one can
admire. Oh. it is pnluful to be
hold ten thousand legs a day,
and see but ten of proper mold
In all that stark array. A scraw
ny woman walks ahead, 1 cannot
help but see the calf that's atro
phied and dead, the large and
bony kaoe. An ample woman
walks before, I cannot help but
note tho limb that's like a cellar
door, and Hobs rise to my throat.
"Oh, why," 1 ask my Belt at
time, "will women thus be slaves
to fashions which arc brutal
crimes they're better in their
graves. Men ask their tailors to
conceal their angles and their
bumps, antl so respectable they
feel until they bump the bumps.
Hut women wllh artocious feet
and legs that shock the eyes,
display each blemish on the
Htreet, at nod of fashion' gttyH."
They say long gowns are comlm;
back, and they once more will
hide tlie large splay of feet that
do not track, the calves too thin
or wide.
friends who have volunteered their
.support I would hardly have had
the courage to "carry on."
As your public servant I liave
pei-fornied my duty as I saw it
1 ant conscious of no wrong-dolng
whatsoever; for the past year and
mure I have been under the
strain of veiled antl shadowy ru
mors and 1 n u e n d o e s passed
around in a way that I could
not openly meet these stories
finally culminating in 'a grand
jury indictment on charges that
were peculiarly humiliating to a
man of honor and integrity. I
have tried to meet the situation
bravely, as a soldier should; I
have been fighting with nty back
to the wall, for not only Is my
own honor and reputation at
stake, but the good name and fu
ture happiness of my wife .and
children hangs in the balanco.
lu closing, 1 wish lo say to the
pcopli of Jackson county that t
am guiltless, and I have the high
hope and failli to know that
wiu-ii the jury returns u verdict,
lliey will so dcclaru.
