Reviving Masculinity For Men By FREDERIC J. HASKIN

WASHINGTON. D. C, April 5. Growing aestheticism on the part of callow young beaux has driven- Into the open some he-men who feel that man must not be allowed to sink into effeminate daintiness. The strongjawed strong-fisted male muBt be en-

Icouraged rather than scorned, they

say. The fact that a man can not enter

a lobby gracefully nor wear a cigarette with the proper nonchalant expression of the lower lip should not be necessarily regarded as a handicap. It may

jbe a sign of virility.

That certain college athletes, young men who have strength and prize it, are In the front rank of the rouged and perfumed dandies with hairnets over their pompadours, is regarded as one of the last straws by the back-to-manhood element. That is not, of course, the first era in history in which young dandies have taken to perfumed hair or even to

touched-up features. The patch and wig of a century or two ago are still remembered. How to promenade gracefully in a ballroom was as important and desirable an accomplishment for a man in those days as it was for a woman. But now, with society in a more frank and simple state, the end-

lless coquetting and masquerading of

cavalier days in out of place, the he-

men say.

The tendency of women to dress like men Is regarded as a further

cause for alarm. The fear is express

ed that soon women will present a more manly appearance than men, and after that the race may see a return to a matriarchal age with women as warriors, rulers and judges of the nations. Because of these tendencies and prophecies, men in several colleges are being urged to distinguish themselves in appearance to such an extent that the women can not follow. They are

asked, for one. thing, to wear derby hats a style of headgear for everyday use which is practically safe from women's pursuit. The only trouble with it as a popular institution Is that the tight, stiff band is thought to cause baldness. Corn cob pipes, which so far have not struck the fancy qf the flapper, are also advocated as manly by pioneers of the he-man movement in one of these colleges. - Should Men Wear Pink? At a meeting of a group of strongjawed college men the other night, this question of clothes and appearance was uppermost. It was seriously debated whether pink, baby blue and

lavender should be regarded as unmanly when displayed, in shirt patterns and ribbon suspenders. There was a motion made that neckties and shirts be

restricted to strong colors, such as

royal purple, maroon, green and burnt orange, but no decision was reached. Whiskers were also suggested, but they were denounced as unhygienic and messy looking. The little meeting of the advance guard of masculinity had some trouble in finding safe territory on which to plant their banner of defiance. Girls

are wearing knickers, men's shoes.

Tour-in-hand neckties, socks or their equivalent short hair, and mannish overcoats. It is even whispered that some women are becoming eligible for the bald head clubs, whether from too much hair curling or hair pulling, is not certain. How then, with all these accessories of manhood taken over by the women, is the he-man to retain his identity, the pioneers asked themselves mournfully. They fell back on . denouncing the practices of effeminism and solemnly swearing never to touch lip stick, powder, rouge, hair nets, shoe

in "rights." Women have been doing radical things in business, politics, professions, and with their appearance as well. But men have had no organizations to work for their social progress. Bill of Rights For Men : The first political agitator for the cause of men burst upon the horizon only a few days ago when a Maryland senator presented a bill of rights for men to the Maryland legislature. This bill, we. understand, was taken more or less as a joke. But the pioneer comforted himself no doubt with the reflection that all great ideas are apt to be ridiculed at first and that he will some day be famous as the father of a cause. It is obvious that with the 6tatus

ity for married couples was one of the items in the Maryland statesman's bill of rights. The other side of the case, which has long been agitated, should be provided for with equal fairness. That is, the wife whose contribution to the home is a full day's housework should receive her just share of the family income. - . i This is one of the questions arising in connection with the equal rights problem. Another was brought into court the other day by a man of seventy. He asked that his wife, who -had left him, be ordered to pay him alimony on the grounds that she was younger than he and that she had money. But the most serious problem, to the
