Paris Styles ; By Mary Knight ' i United Press Staff Correspondent 'l Paris, Sept. 19 —(UP) — “Those i masculine modes," said a man in i ’ I Paris who knows a thing or two a-1 ' i bout women's clothes, "have not I come from a whim of a dress de-1 1 i signer. The adoption of masculine i 1 I modes is inevitable in the logical I ■ sequence of evolution. I do not ' ' 1 think people realize how women's [ 'outlook has changed in recent ■ I years. "Women ar- gradually occupying ! posts which were regarded as ahsol- ■ Ute m" «e possessions not many ' I year . ago. Woman in business is he- ! ■ coming more and more efficient, I , therefore her clothes must be effi-' > J cient for life in hurrying crowds. I : in busy streets, subways and buss I les Trousers, waiste coats, severe I coats cut on masculine lines, and : i bowler hats have come to stay." ■| And all this rather points to the! 1 I opinion that the present attempt at ''bustles, leg o'mutton sleeves and milions of ruffles that drag aloug ! ! the floor is destined for an early I death. Just as some people have a; s' «ihl and sudden desire to scream ' • 1 out in church, or the public library, I there will be many times and many j people doubtless during the coming! ; winter season, who will feel the ur-1 | gent need for a complete change in I their costume. As a sure outlet for | I such emotions, the new frocks and ' ' hats wil come to the rescue. You I I may be mannish and comfortable alt i ■, during the week while you ply your it trade in a business world, or spend •lit sportively in a leisure one, but i the evening may come when you. will wish to see just how completely ! s! feminine you can be. II The Ladies Aid Society of the r. Presbyterian church will meet Tues-: day afternoon at two-thirty o'clock I at the home of Mrs. Earl B. Adams lon Mercer avenue. A large attenj danc • is desired.
