Show "SOLDIERS" TO WEAR SKIRTS California Women Who Will Go to Military Encampment Refuse to Don Trousers for Decision. San Francisco. Women here who will go to the military encampment on the Presidio army reservation June 1, will not wear trousers, as the members mem-bers of the American Woman's League of Self Defense of New York propose, according to Mrs. Frederick H. Col-burn, Col-burn, who is In charge of the drill. Instead each officer and "enlisted" woman will wear a snug little khaki Norfolk jacket, with a wide khaki skirt fully six inches from the ground, and shoes which will stand washing. Topping it all will be a round khaki hat, something like sailors wear, and ribbons on it will designate rank. Each woman will have two skirts. A plain white eihirt waist completes the outfit. |
