Among the various articles of usefulness
and ornament the summer girl attaches to
her belt this year, none is more noticeable
than tiny oval mirror. 1t is usually set in
a silver wreath or some such fancy design
and flashes the suns rays up and down the
boardwalk and in the eyes of promenaders.
The mirrors are generally of the finest
make and, though small, are costly. They
are used by the fair ones to adjust stray
curls.
