Simplicity in Dress.

There are $3.50 colored pupils In the
public schools of Washington. The number
of white pupils is II $50 At g recent meet
ing of the Trustees it was seriously stated
that a growing evil among the pupils
especially of the normal schools-was the
spirit of emulation in dress. One of the
Board said there WIGS a particular extrava-
gance in sashes, and mentioned instances of
pupils being called up to receive diplomas,
bursting into tears because they did
not have sashes. The Board finally adopted
a resolution recommending the pupils to
observe simplicity of dress in the closing
exercises of all the schools. Carsless peo-
pie may think such matters without the
province Of a School Board, but there really
is exceeding good sense in the ectloX of
these Trustees. Poor parents are often sore
" tried to dress their daughters after the
unreasonable fashion of their mates at these
school exhibitions. The Trustees might
have used one argument which they seem to
have neglected-and that is the very bad
taste of furbelowing young girls for public
exhibition of this sort. The more simple
the dress, the more refined the person.
