LESS CLOUS;
MODE MORALS
NEW YORK.? Lack of clothes
makes for morality, according to Hu
ll: rv of Arthur ('.cor ? ? I'om. rcy Co!-'
Ion, son of the retired English -of
ficer, Lieut. (Jen. Sir Edwin Coll-"
for forty years a re-ddent of British
East Africa.
"If American women wore less
clothes they would bo more modest,"
declared the Englishman today.
"The women of Africa wear v< r;
little rainment and they are tli
moral women in the world.
"Clothes make the savage woman
shv and coquettish. I have notic.d
that in the native garb, which con
sists of a strip of bark or bit of wool
en blanket, they are as unconscious
of their charms as children.
"A white shirtwaist and a skirt to
which the missionary introduces them
seems to sow the first seeds of van
ity. As soon as it is explained to
them that they are without sufficient
covering, it has the most demoraliz
ing effect upon them. They become
vain, flirtatious and conceited when
they are invested with apparel.
"I think an ornamental purity bri
gade, with an African woman as
missionary, would help occidental
morals and manners.
