BISHOP SPURNS CRITICISM OF CLOTHING OF BRIDES Baltimore Episcopal Prelate Fails to Agree’ With Rules Laid Down by Chattanooga Rector. . By the Associated Press. CHATTANOOGA. Tenn., December 6.—Episcopa! Bishop John Gardner Murray of Baltimore does not agree With the rules laid down by Rev. Father W. C. Robertson, rector of Christ Church here, regarding the dresses of brides and malds at wed- dings in his church. Dr. Robertson's that “skirts must not be higher than where the spring of the calf of the leg begins and wide enough to allow of genuflecting before the blessed sacrament without exposing the calf, | much less the knee." Bishop Murray, who was quoted in a special dispatch, declared that the regulation was a personal one of the rector and not part of the code of the denomination. He further said that he would take no part fin cen- soring the clothing of brides. For the treatment of the face alone, by steaming and massaging, many New York society women are said to pay as much as $500 a year. It Would Tire an Athlete to walk or stand in the shoes worn by the average woman. With the body thrown out of poise by high heels, every pound is carried as dead weight. And with toes cramped and the foot laced against a stiff shank so that the muscles are not free to function, the gait becomes unnatu-i ral and causes fatigue. The flexible, natural-shaped Canti- lever Shoe permits every muscle the full liberty necessary to an elastic step and perfect balance.

BALTIMORE, December 6.—Women of today, are taller, healthier, with greater lunk capacity (for breathing, not talking), and with far larger waists than the women of a genera- tion or so ago, according to local physical culttre experts, costumieres and corgetieres. Among the reasons are said to be the advent of the athletic girl; the in- struction in athletics in pubfic and private schools, and principally the passing ofthe sixteen-inch waist as the perfection of fasaion With the small waist went the old steel-ribbed,” high-bosomed, all-em- bracing corset, against which hygien- ists and physicians protested vainly for many years. The experts say this type of corset is gone forever, because women have at last learned the luxury of being in fashion and in comfort at the same time. While experts—male and female—admitted that woman probably would con- tinue to disregard health and comfort to a*degree in order to be fashionable, they were unanimous.in the opinion |+ that no fashion could bring back the days when a husband had to be strong indeed in order to lace his wife up tightly enough to be in style. According to the chief corsetiere of one of the most fashionable shops here, women will never again consent to be tortured by the old-style corset. She said it took a long time to get them out of tight lacing, but that the = coming generation, athletlc, healthy and comfortable, never would consent "to give up health, comfort and athletics, and that fashion would £0 against a solid feminine antago- nism.
