Address to the Ladies, Virginia Gazette 1767 Young ladies in town, and those that live round, Let a friend at this season advise you; Since money’s so scarce, and times growing worse, Strange things may soon hap and surprise you. First, then, throw aside your high topknots of pride; Wear none but your own country linen; Of economy boast, let your pride be your most To show clothes of your own make and spinning. What if homespun they say is not quite so gay As brocades, yet be not in a passion, For when once it is known this is much wore in town, One and all will cry out, ’tis the fashion! And as one all agree that you’ll not married be To such as will wear London factory, But at first sight refuse, tell them such you do choose As encourage our own manufactory. Who does most of the buying in your home? How would you convince them to not buy from a certain store? Lesson 1-5: A Changing Situation

No more ribands wear, nor in rich dress appear, Love your country much better than fine things, Begin without passion,.twill soon be the fashion To grace your smooth locks with a twine string. Throw aside your Bohea, and your Green Hyson tea, And all things with a new fashion duty; Procure a good store of the choice Labrador, For there’ll soon be enough here to suit you. These do without fear, and to all you’ll appear, Fair, charming, true, lovely and clever; Though the times remain darkish, young men may be sparkish, And love you much stronger than ever.
