A WELL DESERVED HONOR FOR OUR BELOVED PRESIDENT
Urges Americans to Patronize Americans. Mr. I.o>n Winslow in his speech on "Interior! Decoration" in the auditorium May 22, said that lie thought it disgusting the way women pave followed out in their dress the designs discovered in the tomb of King Tut. He also stated! that this was started by people desirous of making money, and that America could produce designs of far more beauty and of better technique. Americans will not patronize the .American designers. \\ lien the designers of America rebeive as much money a- the laborers who carelessly place the design on the object to be sold, then will America gel ahead in the Art line. Fashion magazines, published at about the same time the King Tut styles, and style taken from tin- western part of the United States. The style of an Egyptian who lived thousands of years ago survived while that designed after the "American Cow Boy" ]>erished in America. In Paris, they wear the designs taken from America, while we go to Egypt for ours. Let America be American. If fashion requires variation, why not resort to the American Indian-these woidd be mure fitting and beautiful than the designs taken from dead mummies.
