Dear Madam—Allow a man to say he heartily approves of your articles regarding the bad taste dleplayed by wonen and girls In the manner they dress If their excuse for dressing as they do is “hecanse they are lor, I would say they are playing @ poor game.

Any tax would be willisgly paid by me rather, than marry one of these brainless creatures. We ere not angels and do not want to marry angels, but we want girls such as our mothers were, as fay as modesty i# concerned. 1 am glad to eee a paper lke The Evening World publish articles lke yours, but I fear they will have no effect, because if the girls had brains enough to understand those articles and change thelr style, then they would have had brains enough not to have dressed indecently before.

The writers of this and other letters all give thelr names and addresses which I withhold, Here ts another man who says he is not attracted by franu: efforts to attract, Dear Madam: Your article In last evening's World {s timely and to the point, May it help the young girls to see themee! as others see them, but thelr @ as noth ing to the powder and rouge they apply.

The suggestion in this letter seemed #9 well worth following that with The Evening World artist I visited Public School No. 170, and with the permission of the principal, Miss Sullivan, saw the girls of the higher grade in their classes. Tt seems to me only fair to the school to say at once that I saw there no girls who were made up and observed mo conditions of spectacular dressing or of bad taste which are mot common to Practically all the schools of New York City. ‘The condition is general. Bvery mother meets it ani ery teacher confronted by it. Ww to don't have go outside the classroom to learn the latest fashions,” declared one teacher in Public No, chook 10, while Miss Sullivan, the prin- frankly met the situation de- ed by the letter to The Evening d with the following statement: For the last year, with the ald of the teachers in the school, I have made the most determined effort to change the conditions described in this letter. I have had girls who came to school with thelr faces ‘made up’ brought here to my office and I have wiped their faces with @ towel till they were free from paint or powder. I have seen girls with thelr faces go whitened with pow- der that they looked like Humpty Dumpty im an old-fashioned spectacle. But you tell me that you have observed no girls in the school who appeared ‘made up’ to you. I am glad to bear tt, as we have been struggling to obtain guch @ result. It is not fair to the school to assume that all the young girls who pass here at 8.30 in the morning are pupils of No. 170. On my way from the One Hundred and Tenth street subway in the morning I pass sometii two, sometimes a» many as ten very young girls with their faces ‘made up.’ But they are on thetr way to work down- town. They are not school giris,”’ The principal of No, 170 was greatly j distressed that her school should have ‘been chosen for public criticism, at iy should the teachers of our public schools be compelled to ada to their many duties the The public schools now teach girls to cook and sew.

What else can We expect when the principal school has to wipe the “makeup” from little girls of twelve and fourteen. Very pretty ttle girls they are, the pupils of No, 170, of course, I saw among them the gigantic bows, the elaborate curls, the bandeaux and the low necks which characterize the echool- girl all over New York.
