The reason for the 50 per cent

Corsets and False Hair
Among Few. Luxuries of
Medf ord Women In 1 900
(By Eva Nealon) V. ,
Summer is here and a galaxy of
dainty colors, laces, ruffles, rib
bons and furbelows, reminiscent of
the Flora Dora days, do deck the
tores of Medford. Hut the onrush:
of the season fails to inspire tho
purchase of muslin by the bolt or
creation or a pyramid petticoat' to
conceal the feminine limb and old
styles have not returned, accord-1
ing to merchants of Medford, who
trotted back to '1900 in' memory
yesterday. - ; -
The girl of 1900 was no doubt
quits the same as 'the ghi -of '1931;
even as "The Colonel's Lady and
Mrs. O'Grady nra sisters, under the
skin." Butthe girl of 1900 was sep
arated from the modern femme by
more than a skin's difference, lo
cal merchants Insist, and the gap
grew greater with the approach of
winter.
Hers was a world of whalebone,
cotton stockings and gusseted vests
of which the faminlne ranks of to
day know nothing. In spile ot the
depression and the claims of stylo

vival of the old" as the dernier cri

Corsets of black' ahd white "wftlt
the strength of "iron bands" en
cased the feminine form.- The two
colors were as necessary -to mor
ality as the lack of pliancy. "Only
the most daring wore corsets of
pink," a clerk said yesterday, "and
they were seldom to be found in
local shops." - - -'
Silk stockings were unheard of
and 25 cents was a high price to
pay for cottons. The popular num
