OF butter lasted a week, so that the

Adding up the cost of cream, cents,

AB0UT 7

Once again the university town has
become a habitable place to dwell in. No
wilderness in the world is more lonely
than the college town in summer time.
1t is like Hamlet with Hamlet left out.
But now all is changed. The college girl
has returned to the added dignities of
upper Craftsmanship, not to speak of the
hopeful, bright-faced little freshmen who
have come to the higher seat of learning
for the first time.
Ihe other day / asked a certain artist
from a foreign country to make me
little sketch Of his idea Of a college girl.
lie pictured her with melancholy
countenance, sadly waving her handker-
chief to some imaginary summer friend,
as she backed reluctantly into the col
lege door. Evidently that artist had
never seen bevy of college girls rush
ing together like a football scramble to
greet one another with: Halo! old girl;
what an age since l have seen youw
The American girl is not sorry to get
back to college, even though she may not
be passionately devoted to study. As a
rule, whatever she undertakes she does
with a will and manages to have
pretty good time doing it, too. But who
would not come back with rejoicing to
the possibilities of college hops, where
one whirs in the misty, may waltz with
the jolliest men in the world and to the
constant intercourse with girls who are
either cultivated or in the process of cul-
tivation?
In most colleges worthy of the name
democratic spirit prevails which outlaws
snobbishness, especially in matters Of
dress. Yet there is certain jauntiness of
appearance which most college girls man.

shirt waist, or the manner in which they
wear their hats.
Speaking of hats, there is a new one
among the fall importations which
seems exactly suited to the style and the
needs of college girl. ! have named it

see at once that it is decidedly a coll 70

but sew down to the crown Of your hat
firmly, SO that it will not blow up. This
arrangement gives sort of Tam
O'Shanter effect and is very jaunty.
The mortar-board top may be removed
as soon as it becomes soiled and either
turned inside out and refolded or re-
placed by new piece perhaps of diff
ferent color. But the college girl will pre-
fer to use the colors Of the institu-
ton she attends. For instance, the Cor.
nell girl will have red felt with white
top, the Barnard blue with yhite NOR.

preJudices of other folks, prefer to con-
slider the prettiest combination in the
world.

higher does one attain to the tip of
fashion. There are feathered creatures
