(Written for the United Press)
There was once a schoolmaster gruff
I Who delighted his pupils to cuff.
He'd arise with much choler
And grab a poor scholar,
But now collars and cuffs aren't so
rough.
Though they say in the Fall
We'll find out one and all
That collars will be rough enough
Huff Stuff.
NEW YOR, Nov. 13—It's a wee bit
ruff, my dears, and it has us by the
ears, and a rough neck you will have
to be this Fall if you want to be real
, smart and correctly dress the part for
a ruffles neck's notin now at all.
In the days of Good Queen Bess
(though 1 really cannot guess why
they call her good now pray can you
conjecture) ruffs were worn by all the
swells all the beaus as well as belles
| made of linen starched and pleated
| of fine texture.
j Now 1 thought when just a child,
i ihough the theory now seems wild,
that the reason they wore ruffs in
that far day was because when Queen
. Bess said "Off with his head”. That
" the ruff would sort of help things j
(along in this way. When the heads- j
man made thu chop just below the!
ruff—kerflop—Then the ruff around ^
the head would make a t'iii like the j
frills we have today on our lamb ;
chops when to stay there is company j
to dine and eat there fill.
Now those headsmen you see over
rough were bound to be while the
chopped off heads were over ruff as
well but 1 hope no one today will go
t off her head that way over ruffs of
9 any other fashion spell. In those days
it is quite true that men were ruffed
up too and the greatest brains emerg
ed from out the grill. Bill Shakes
peare wrote his best, I am sure, when
he was dressed in a ruff where upon
he wiped his facile quill.
And when Drake and Raleigh sailed
while the angry billows railed and the
winds and waves were rough, in linen
fine, I’ve no doubt, they both stepped
out on deck and when a shout said:
_ “I see you're rough, oh wuves, do you
— see mine?”
Just fancy it today Shackleton
should dress this way or Mr. Perry
or old Dr. Cook. If H. G. Wells could
write in a ruff he'd be a sight and 1
don’t believe I'd buy his latest book.
But 'tis needless thus to fret for they
have not as yet thrust their necks in
to fashion's yoke these present times
and just the women now dears, are in
ruffs up to their ears though they are
quite sufficient for these rhymes.
Quite a problem for the stout, that
_ they'll have to figure out, all this ruff
seems to promise for the Pall. How
an extra chin is going to be tucked
in is a thing I can’t elucidate at all.
Think what quantities of lace, if you
have a full moon face, it will make
you ruff much fuller still, yards and
yards of muslin too, it will take to
make into a frill, your fulsome face
won’t fully fill
But whether thin or fat, it will be
some art at that to learn to eat our
meals in a ruff. Spots of garavy or
soup will soon cause your ruff to
droop. We may have to use a straw
for liquid stuff. And how ever will
we kiss? Do you think of this For
a stiff starched ruff’s no aid to os
culation. For if you kiss a gent your
ruff will sure get bent and that will
also dent your reputation. For thus
your ruff will show like a record, don't
you know, how oft you've yielded to
. the kiss temptation. Oh it's going to
be tough on all the loving stuff—Dan
Cupid may as well take a vacation.
