By Marguerite Mooers Marshall “The girl of the period is a creature who dyes her hair and paints her face as the first ar- ticles of ler personal religion; whose sole idea of life is plenty, of fun and luxury, and whose dress is the object of such thought and Intellect as she pos- sesses. Her main endeavor In this is to outvle her neighbors in the extravagance of fashion." “What, AGAIN I imagine Evening World readers sighing at this point. “Is somebody else about to inform us how vain, vul- gar, artificial, selfish, silly is the Girl of To-Day? “Is some other spokesman for the Grundy family about to point out that there never ‘were such dreadful young people, and that what we need is a re- turn of the lovely, modest, sweet and refined Girl of Yesterday?" Don't be fooled any longer. The acidulous criticism which I have just quoted, the damning indict- ment of the painted, luxury-lov- ing, dress-crazy flapper—WAS WRITTEN EXACTLY FIVTY- FOUR YEARS AGO! ‘Thus, and no otherwise, Girl of Yesterda contemporaries, the pen pict drawn from life of the Mode! Daughter of yester- year, who haus been stuffed down the throat of the Modern Daugh- ter by most, if not all, of that lively young woman's detractors.” The London Saturday Review has” just republished an article en- titled "The Girl of the Period,” did the which first appeared in its col- umns on March 14, 1868. The author, an Exglish woman, Mrs, as much exer- cised over the fads and follies of the@Modern Girl of the late Highteen-Sixties as, let us say, Mrs, Katherine Fullerton Gerould or Mrs. Kathleen Norris is dis- turbed about the Modern Girl of the early Nineteen-Twenties. The amusing factor of the situation is that the Victorian critic and the observers of girlhood in the Age of President Harding find al- most the same faults to condemn. And the moral seems to be that “girls will be girls! Lynn Linton, r instance, the persons 'who scold the Girl of i922 are. par- ticularly exercised about her over- short skirts, and about the bobbed hair which she allows to stick out jn all directions from her young head, Now listen to M Lynn Lin- ton, writing of the Girl of 1868: hion lifts a gown ont of the mud, she raises hers midway to her knee. “de hair sliny and sticky with grease fs thought less nice than if left clean and healthily crisp, she dries and fr Ss hers out on end like certain savages in Afri and thinks herself all the more beautiful the nearer she ap- proaches in look to a maniac or a Negress. “Nothing {s too extraordinary and nothing too exaggerated for her vitiated taste, and things which In themselves would bo useful reforms if let alone become monstrosities worse than those which they have displaced so soon as she begins to manipulate and improve." One of the commonest charges: brought against the Girl of 1 is that she imitates, in her dress, the demi-monde, and that her ev ening gowns use particularly shi 3 in thelr M n Linton, it seems, lial noted these same deplorable de- fects in the Girl of 1868. As the Victorian writer puts it . ‘"What the demi-monde doe. in its frantic efforts to excite atlen- tion she also does in imitation, if some fashionable yet shameless creature Is reported to haye come out with her dress below her shoulder-biades and a gold stray for all the siceve thought seces sary, the girl of the How nest dio; and wonders mien somet \ | Pewrdnce aid Viltue Cught to be inseparable, und that no good girl can afford to appear bad, under penalty of receiving the contempt awarded to the bad.’ The lack of domesticity, the aversion to children and home cares, shown by the Girl of 1922— do we not hear of these on every hand? Scores of indignant young men wrote recently to The Evening World to protest against the mod- ern girl's expensive taste In pleas- ure, to charge that she is a “gold- digger’ pure and simple, with no love for a poor man. Alas! the world grows no better very fast. The Girl of 1868, in- dignantly charges Mrs. Linton— well, here it 1s, in her own words: “No one can say of the modern girl that she is tender, loving, re- tiring or domestic. Love in a cot- tage is now a myth Of past ages. ‘The legal barter of herself for so much money, representing so much—so much luxury and pleas- ure—that is her idea of marriage. For all setiousness of thought re- specting the dutifs or the co: quences of marriage she has not a@ trace. “If children come, they find but a stepmother's cold welcome from her. The sooner her husband un- derstands that he has simply mar- ried some one who will conde- spe to spend his money on her- , and who will shelter her in- discretions behind the shield of his name, the less severe will be his disappointment, She has mar- ried his house, his carriage, his balance at the bankers; and he himself is just the inevitable con- dition clogging the wheel of her fortune. For it is only the old- fashioned sort, not girls of the period, that magry for love, put the husband betore the banker." Men, according to the exhorters of the Girl of 1922, do not reaily admire th mercenary, bold, pleasure-loving creature, do not really wish to marry her, They prefer the Old-Washioned Girl. Yet if, by “old-fashioned,” we mean the Girl of 1868, she would not do at all. For even then men were still wanting something: dif- ferent, something simple and tender and genuine, something other than “the girl of the per- iod."" Says Mrs, Lynn Linton of that maiden: “She does not Men may amuse themselves with her for an evening, but thiy do not take her readily for life. All men whose opinion is worth hay- ing prefer the simple and genuine givl of the past, with her tender little ways and pretty bashful modesties, to this loud and ram- pant modernization, with her false red hair and painted skin, talk- ing slang us gibly as a man, and by preference leading the conver- sation to doubtful subjects. ‘Though men laugh with her they, do not respect her, though they flirt with her they do not*marry her."" » ¢ marry casily, the withering accusa the Girl of lis ‘The final. tion brought against she 1922 is that never ens to mother—-or to any one else—that she, goes hey self-willed way re- gardiess of the rebukes and re- monstrances of ojhers “opwas cver thus! For bear what her monitor, Mrs, Lynn Lin- ton, had to say about the Girt of 1868, on this very matter of ree spect for authority “The girl of the period done away with such moral muffishness 4s consideration for others, or re- gard for counsel and rebuke, It was wll very well in old-fashioned times, when fathers and mothers had some authority and were treated with respect, to be tutored and made to obey, but she ts far too fast and flourishing to be stopped in mid-career by these slow old morals." It is, of course, sad to reflect that the Girl of To-Doy_ 1s no bet- ter than the Girl of Yesterday, On the other hand, in the light of Mrs. Lynn Linton’s revelations, consider the obvious, the optimis- tie fact, that at least the Girl of 'To-Day is no sora SENATE “ADOPTS PLAN FOR BIGGER AIR FEEET © Service ens.
