THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
ABBREVIATED SKIRTS BEST-DOCTOR BACON
Girls Who Are Doing Good Work Are the Most Sensibly Dressed
DON'T WANT ROUGH DRESS
We Should Not Wear Wool Shirts and Sport Clothes Every Day
"I think that the students of the University are showing a great deal more common sense than ever before in their dress on the campus," said Dr. Marta Bacon, this morning. "The reasonably relaxed and comfortable dress that can be worn, and as was said in the Kansas a few days ago, you will find the girls who are doing the most on the Hill the most sensibly dressed. The mildly suits worn by these girls are as becoming a girl girl
This was the opinion given in regard to the "White Collar" movement that is the subject of so much discussion about the campus just now. Dr. Bacon went on to say that she has found it is the shoes of the average college girl which have been called to her attention recently. In the foot eminations which she is mistaken for, there has not only one perfect foot from these 500 prints taken. The shoes are either too high from French heels or are too flat. In talking of the high heels Dr. Bacon said she considered them bad enough in any circumstance, but on the campus they are absolutely ridiculous. There are only a few girls about the campus who have not, in some degree, she said, begun their reformation in order if these few would follow the example set before them in flanks, cutting sleeves and the general idea of getting by—for their minds would be on work rather than clothes.
But Professor W. S. Johnston of the English department said, "So far as I have observed there is very little extravagance in the dress of the students overdress in any way, but neither do I believe in creating too rough atmosphere about the curriculum that a University should not wear as can be afford to and, not wear the wool shirts and rough sport clothes all of the time, when he can easily afford to look better."
Several of the well known instructors who refused to be quoted had definite ideas upon the subject. One of them, who has only recently come to our campus, says that it is her belief that the common cast is disobedient in their schools and does not educational. She thinks that the dress of the students is greatly improved over the beginning of the semester, when girls came to class dressed as if they were to a party, a dress for school in midsummer and low leaqs as being the most desirable school dress for the girls.
prion
one of the most熟验 of all our professors recalled the day when girls were embarrassed if the ankle showed "And now, well it makes no difference to me if they have something in their heads worth while, and I feel sorry for the people in this world who have to worry about that side of life. A woman should show her own individuality in her dress, and the question should be left to her."

GIVES BOOKS TO K. U.

A unique gift has come to the. Alumni Association from one of the alumni who help the University and help the Association. Kate Stephens of
New York has sent to alumni headquarters 250 copies of her latest book, "Life at Lauered Town in Angelo-Saxon Kansas," in a beautiful edition. The book is bound in nude flower colors, to be sold for the benefit of the Association.

Johnson Chosen Chairman Of Combined Association
Prof. W. H. Johnson, of the Extension Department, was elected chairman of the board of directors of the Kansas State Teacher Association in Topka Saturday.
