year 1938 all parties interested are requested to take notice and govern themselves accordingly j s dougherty clerk of the said village stouffvillo may 16 1938 what men have done there was a report of a debate in a paper a few days ago and the topic was resolved that men arc not so easily swayea by fashion as women it was recorded that the side which uphe1 the conservatism of men won by a small margin it would have been an interesting thing to have heard and we have little idea of what points were scored to make it appear that man had chang ed so little in the matter of selecting raiment truth is the male section of any community has followed a good many ideas time was when he parted his hair in the middle and then caused it to rest on his brow in a short of swooping design who started that we never heard but it is a fact that he at once had many disciples about that time there arrived tne era of the tight trousers they were a trifle hard on those whose legs were a bit warped at the knees but few there were who were not seized with the trend toward the tight trousers and they were very tight one could hardly pull them on over a pair of socks but once they were on there was the immediate feeling of assurance that tney would re main so hard on the heels of that came the day of the pointed shoe then it was that man who had always boasted of freedom with which his pedal extremities were encased worshipped at a new altar his feet may have been broad and squat and comfortable but they had to conform to style and make their way aided by shoehorn and stretcher and much effort into shoes which came- to points so definitely marked that they could in emergency be used for a screw driver and in those shoes man grew corns bunions and blisters come to think of it there was also the reign of the high collar which continued its circular and enfolding trend under the chin without a sign of relinquishing the splendid height to which it had been born in them there was no comfort but men wore them because some person had started the rumor that such should be done it may be a little dim by this time but it is possible to recall the day when men wore button shoes and when the things were new it was necessary to use so effeminate an article as a buttonhook before one was able to walk forth properly dressed he also passed through the age of velvet and brocaded vests it may be the debaters put up a good case for man and successfully advan ced the plea that his powers of res istance were always high when new apparel hove in sight truth seems to be that man has turned many a sharp corner in efforts to make himself presentable the ladies may have gone him one better but certainly not two bloomington mr and mrs albert smith and audrey were iu toronto on
