WOMAN'S DRESS
REVERTING TO THE FIG-LEAF. By Cablt—Press Association—Oopyrifkt. Received 27, 8 p.m. New York. August 20. The Rev. G. Morill, of Minneapolis, is denouncing women's fashions in his sermons in such a manner that his church is crowded every Sunday. He shows slides endeavoring to prove that immodest styles will prcscntlj r be in vogue. The original skirt was the iig-leaf of the Garden of Eden, and apparently women to-day are returning to a somewhat similar fashion. Minneapolis society women vigorously retorted against the pastor's strictures, in effect telling Jiim that liis church was not a place for fashion lectures.
