Feminine Fascination For The
Pants Is Benefiting Industry
Boston—Trousers for women are
becoming an ally of the cotton in
dustry in a fashion world which has
continuously decreed short skirls
the past few years.
Beach pajamas, • overalls and
trousers cut sailor fashion with a
pirate sash are the 1929 mode in
the evolution of trousers which be

the daring few during the bicycle
craze of the •'Gay Nineties."

of the National Association of Cot
ton Manufacturers predicts in its
monthly report issued today.
"The present vogue for trousers
had its beginning in the bloomers
worn with bicycling costumes," the
stylists report continues "At that
time, there was a loud ' u
breaking up of the home ard sub
serviance of men. etc.
"But the entrance of w’amen
into the field of war work was a
.different story. It was considered
a noble duty to discard feminine
frivolity. The farmerette appeared,
women donned overalls in factcr
- end uniforms were a!mo t gen
eral.
“Trousers for women during the
period between 1919 and 1924
meant men’s knickerbockers, worn
for any possible excuse. The idea
was there to stay. So fashion de
cided to capitalize it.
“The demand for sun and air
brought the idea out in the open.
In Venice, on the Lido, smart so
ciety found that it could be both
smart and comfortable lying around
the beaches all day in pajamas.
Tire sun tan fashion was then so
new that there was still a cry for
more protection than the bathing
suit could give. Besides, a wet
bathing suit is not the most com
fortable thing in the world.
“The latest development is the
overalls translated in cotton,
whether printed or plain, with hats
of rough straw or cotton fabric,

Four Causes Of
Crime Are Listed
Most Of Youthful Criminals Come
From Broken Homes. Not A Single
Scout In Bunch.
University News Letter
During the last twenty years 20 -
000 young men between the ages of
eighteen and twenty-five years have
been admitted to the Indiana Re
formatory now at Pendleton.
More than 85 per cent of them
came from broken homes, where the
father and mother had separated
and remarried.
Only one per cent of Indiana's
population cannot read or wTite
but that one per cent furnishes 37
per cent of the reformatory Inmates.
Only one college graduate and only
fifteen high school graduates were
In all that 20,000 youth. Get those
figures.
Not a single Boy Scout has ever
been sent to the reformatory.
Only four percent of the 20,000
prisoners belonged to a church. The
percentage of negroes and foreign
ers is very low, most of the crimi
nals being everyday Americans, born
and reared in this country.
These figures mean something to
every good citizen. That broken
homes breed crimes and the person
who breaks up a home should be
punished as a criminal.
That our compulsory education
laws should be strengthened, as edu
cation lessens crime.
That the Boy Scout movement
should have the moral and financial
backing of every good citizen. It
seems to be the surest way to keep
boys out of the penitentiary.
That church membership seems to
be 96 percent effective and should
be encouraged. To oppose our
churches is to encourage crime.
Here are four splendid ways to dis
courage crime—lessen divorce, sup
port education, the Boy Scouts and
the church.
