E‘ Dorothy Dix Says-

WAR MAY INDUCE WOMEN TO WEAR DRESSES AGAIN

Draftees Say They Are Much In Favor Of Girls In Ruffled Frocks

Ono of the problems of human behavior which is ever good for s hot argument is whether women dress to attract men, or make other women envious. Personally, I have always belonged to the feminine school of thought in the controversy, for it has seemed obvious to rrie that no member of the fair sex could be so ignorant of the tastes and habits of men as to believe that there was anything about a do-funny hat that would make one get up and follow it. or that they would be intrigued by the sight of high-water skirts or shorts that disclosed their wearer's every anatomical blunder to the public gaze,

them look like ﬁgures o fun on altruistic grounds. You might say that they desire to be amusing and to give men a good laugh in a world that is overfull of depression. but this theory falls flat because men have no sense of humor where women are concerned. No man would step out with a living caricature, and while one might stick to a girl friend, even if her char- acter was aspersed. he would fade out of the pic- ture the ﬁrst time someone snickcred at her ap- pearance.

Of course, you might account for women wearing fashions that make

If further proof were needed that women pay scant attention to the tastes of men in selecting their clothes. we could adduce the testimony of thousands of husbands whose wives d0 not even make a pietense of trying to please them in the choice of their wardrobes Mrs. Smith makes no attempt to hold her husband's affections by - l ' means of wearing the pinks and blues he ad- IIlIlPB» Indeed. Only after married men learn by experience that if they crllivlye their wives’ hats and gowns they will have to buy them new ones do they become wise enough to suppress their opinions about them.

Women are so keen to please men in all other ways that it render;

To begin with, women are built with a. beet-like ﬁgure that is not lKl-"lllcd to the wearing of pants. Then. when they cast away the gar- ments that flatter them. they throw into the discard their own best bet Even a homely woman looks pretty in a pretty gown, but it takes Miss America. l‘l(‘!‘5L£'ll. to pct by in slacks. And, most important of all the thing that attracts a man to a. woman is the attraction o!’ opposites.‘ He wants a woman to be different from him, not his understudy.

Women understand this feeling in themselves. aglne herself feeling anything except repulsion for a man who Went about dressed in a decollete satin evening gown and covered with jewels and gewgzuvs. But she expects him to like her in brooches.

‘This feminine yearning for masculine habiliments has had some in- teresting. and perhaps revolutionary. side-lights thrown upon it in the present war. According to the statistics gathered on the subiect. the response of women to the call for volunteers for war work has denmded largely upon whether a uniform went win, n,” for; vf then- was a cliilncc at brass buttons and nerchance a Sam Brown belt. they flocked t their countrys defense. If not, they were not so hot about it,

‘But. on the other hand. the draftees with almost one voice have crir but-I "Send us Hills in mffled hock-s for our Parties. We are sick o’ looking at uniforms."

‘Now one of the most famous designers of women's clothes in 0H» toilntrv has announced that she is concoctipv the most feminine styl=s sho win think of and making nothing but frills and furb-ilous for fhn duration. because that is the kind of clothes that men want to see women u-mrinir. Thar is what men like, and the way a man wants to remem- ber the girl he left behind him,

So maybe. after all. one of the reformation: ‘hat the war is vain! to brine. about is to get women back into dresses. They are so much easier Oi". Gill‘ QYES.

New York - Fans are n0 in- vention of the Japanese, s0 go right on fanning, girls! China was doing it in 3000 B.C., and India can show you flat, painted parch-

King" was a big political appoint- ment. Pay was good and you marched in all the processions.

We're still making fans in our country, but. not the littie folding paper kind. They were all im. ported and are no more. But wouldn't you be happy with a little goid fan with a real damond in itie tip each stick to wear as a ewe! on your lapel? Or how about wo criss-cross fans in damonds and rubies? They separate into twin clips, each cip a half-opened fan. In the language of the Vic- torian ballroom a half-opened. fan meant. "Perhaps!"

General comes from generalis which carried the meaning of widespread as opposed to local Colonel is a word derived either
