TUESDAY, APRIL 5,

"TO THE PURE"
Lately there have boon n great many
remarks made by n gront many people
with n groat many opinions about tho
modern girl nnd particularly nbout tho
clothes Bhe wears. It calls to mind
tho observation of the Kansas
that "to tho puro nil things arc
prurient." It takes brains to bo a wise
Ite often hits the nail on tho
fool.
head when others nre pounding their
thumbs.
Tho modern girl Is Just ns good a
girl and as sweet a girl as her mother
was, and will make Just as good a
mother as her mother Is. Her clothes?
There may be n bit of unnecessary
exposure once In a while, but the
girl is only following the dictates of
style as her mother did before her.
Low necks and sox and short skirts
are healthful nnd comfortable. If you
have the family album close nt hand,
one look at the vintage of '98 will be
sufficient evidence that the modern
costume Is more acceptable to the eye.
It would appear that "the puro" are
unduly agitated over the situation.
Their fears for the morality of the
race apparently are based on what one
might Judge to be the psychological
effect of scanty wearing apparel. The
only positive evidence on the subject
shows that the contrary is true. Ernest
English traveler, observer, and author, states that the native tribes of South Africa were perhaps the most moral people on earth
until civilization came along and put
clothes on them. Since they have
been wearing clothea they have degenerated to the moral level of their

ancient Athens compare favorably with
those of today, and yet the athletes of
the Olympic games were more scantily
attired. Thucydides. cites the neked-nes- s
of the Athenians as proof of their
superiority over the clotheswearing
barbarians of the north. Surely the
fact that the modern girl can safely
wear the clothes she does speaks well
for the- - morality of men. Certainly then, 'it appears that the world Is
growing better despite the alarmists.
Notwithstanding the argument some
so glibly present
that our modern
dress in many Instances is a shade too
bold, The Kernel is frank to confess
that it belongs to that old fashioned
type that would, if its decisions were
conclusive, add somewhat, rather than
subtract anything, to the modern skirt,
conceal much of the fascinating lingerie of our time, eliminate considerable of the dashing color Intended to
supplement Nature's already perfect
work, and make of the modern girl
what we should be pleased to see In
our mothers and sisters, evidence in
dress of that modisty which is so
fascinating to men.
For the final consideration of "the
pure" we quote the Cincinnati Enquirer which quoted the Lexington
Herald which quoted Dean Anderson
who quoted the French proverb, "honl
soit qui maly penso."

1921

We are indebted to the Louisville
Evening Post, .issue of March 28, for
the following editorial comment:
The college paper of the University of Kentucky makes the point
that the press of the State should
remember that the proper title of
that institution is the University of
Kentucky and not the State University. This is an Important matter for college men and women,
and should be remembered.
It is indeed gratifying to the management of the Kernel to note that
the columns of the University news- attenpaper are attracting State-widtion, and calling forth such expressions as the following from one of
Kentucky's leading evening papers.
But we feel that The Kernel editorial to which the Post referred was
in a measure a failure. The real purpose for which it was written was
