W. KILLEEN CO. I ' REAL ESTATE I c 4 U West 3rd So. St. i i REV. F. W. NORRIS, FORMER SALT LAKE PASTOR, FIGHTS BIG HATS IN BROOKLYN CHURCH. The Rev. Frederick W. Norris, who for years gained great popularity as rector of St. Mark's cathedral in this city, is having his troubles with this season's headgear, and in a recent Interview with Ethel Lloyd Patterson makes a few trite re marks on the subject. Part of the conversation during the interview ran as follows: "Dr. Norris," I said, "I understand you have been having a controversy with the women of your parish over the size of hat that should be worn to church. Will you tell me about it?" "One could scarcely call it a controversy," denied Dr, Norris, good-naturedly. "It is quite too one-sided up to now. You know" glancing apologetically at me "the fashions in women's hats have been absurd for about two years real ly unbearably absurd. But I have not made any comment because, well we all know how any woman resents criticism of her taste. However, a certain Major Henry Murray Calvert of my congregation is of greater courage than I am. Major Calvert wrote me a letter I deemed worthy of space in our church paper, because the victims of fashion are numerous and the need of reform imperative." "Victims?" I interrupted. "When I say 'victims of fashion' I mean men, of course," explained Dr. Norris. "Women are slaves to fashion. I printed Major Calvert's let ter, trusting the women of the congregation would be moved to some such reformation in their church-going headgear as he had suggested. " Bv let me read you the Major's letter: " 'I should very much like to see the ladies of your congregation take the initiative in a greatly needed reform' the Major writes. 'I allude to the substitution of suitable and becoming hats to be worn by women for the very unsuitable and out of place hats which are worn by them now. " 'We men have long borne patiently having our vision and heai'ing obstructed by the dimen sions and elaborate furnishings of women's hats in church. We do not understand why 'men's rights' in so important a matter should be con stantly Ignored, and I venture to predict, from the mutterings of discontent everywhere to be heard, that unless a reform comes soon a large number of men will withdraw from church and refuse to contribute to its support. I shall cer tainly be in that rebel band, for I am tired of peering through vistas of women's headgear and straining my ears amidst thickets of millinery. " 'Public opinion has righted this long en dured vexation in theatres, lecture and concert rooms. The removal of women's hats in churches should be advocated, especially as the floors of our churches are built on a level. We therefore ask for a reasonable compromise in the shape of such a hat as shall enable us to see and hear when we are engaged in-our devotions. The hat that covers the head of a woman in church should be characterized by the moderation of its length and depth and breadth and height. " 'Should the ladies of St. Matthew's, recog nizing these things as necessities, resolve to treat them as necessities, they have the oppor tunity to introduce a notable reform. The self denial Is not much. There is abundant room for the display of taste and elegance in a suitable hat as there is in an unsuitable one. A toque, compactly trimmed, or a "Marie Stuart" bonnet, would save the situation. It would be church fashion against world fashion. " Dr. Norris finished reading and asked: "What do you think of it?" "I fear I would not respect the church religion of any man who was kept from his house of worship by the size of the hats worn by the women of the congregation," I answered.
