FOR EVER“ WAITES "CATHERINE RW “There Were Mashers Before Women Adopted the Present Style of Dress and There Will Be Mashers When We Change the Mode,’’ Writes a Young Woman—Chorus Girls Demand Fair Play. BY NIXOLA GREELEY-SMITH. If you have never in your life received @ round-robin from the beauty chorus of a New York mu- sical comedy—and it's hardly likely that you have—prepare to read one now. Nearly a weck ago a young man reader of The Fvening World contributed to the discussion of the New York Johnny the statement that all women to-day dress so much alike that it 1s impossible for a man to distinguish the schoolgirl from the chorus beauty, or to use, but not to indorse, his expression, to “sep- arate the sheep from the wolves.” NIKOLe GREELEY-SPITH Now, I am perfectly sure that I would much rather be called a wolf than a sheep, but it appears that cer- tain beautiful young ladies of the chorus have not the same zoological preference. For no sooner had the letter of this masculine reader appeared than a committee of five determined young ladies who described themselves As show girls appeared at The Event and it 18 not the clothing but the ‘World office to express their scorn, con- @ must regard. There were before women adopted the Present style of dress, and there will be mashers when we change the mode, The woman who dresses im- modestly attracts to herself the od!- ous attention of the corner loafer, but the woman in extremely dis- crete tollette does not escape him, either, He te an idle, vile-minded brute, and eo is the man of the “gex-crazy” class.
