The ' present mode of dress for women is about to be dispensed with In the In— (crests of efficiency and to relieve women from "the tyranny of dress, " according to dispatches received by the National Young W'omen' 5 Chris- tian Association. Miss Michi Kawai, general secre- EaryA for the Japanese National Y. W. has sent an urgent appeal to the Asecretarial department of the American Y. W. A. with head- quarters in New York, asking that an expert designer and draftcr of pat- terns for women' s clothing be sent to 1532‘" Iss Kawai states that society is making new demands on women in apan these days and that they must free to respond. They have gone into industry in such large ”numbers during the past five years that the majority of indgtcia} Workers are now women. They have gone into clerical and stenographic work and into all of the professions and trades with the result that women can no longer spend the endless hours clean- ing and re- -making the respective Wardrobes of members of the family as is necessary with the present mode of dress. The wave of industrialism has proved the value of time, form- erly held as of no money value. and caused a depreciatiorgof the value of fabrics, which are now made by ma-_ chine. The woman of ordinary circum‘ flames in "Japan such as school teachers and the wives of small mer- chants, must have fifty or so dresses made of linen cotton, silk or mixed materials varying with the use which in to He made of them.

They are so tight around the bottom that the women cannot walk comfortable and hence must ride. As Japanese women do not take kindly to the street cars, largely for the reason that their deli- cate kimonas are liable to be soiled, they ride in Jinrikishas, which is an re- making and taking care of their kimonas.

The absence of the kimona sleeve is the most dis— tinctive feature about this dress. A plain soft brimmed sailor hat with ribbon streamers is worn with this costume. Japanese girls attending college in this country are being urged to take their American clothes home with them. and to wear them in orderth to- sanétion the one-piece dress andth Washable blouse and tailored suit of the western part of the world as the most economical sort of dress. Miss Kawai predicts that European or American clothes will be ado ted for street wear shortly but that ap- anese elo‘thes will be retained for home wear.
