WILL NEVER KISS AGAIN,
SWEAR THESE STUDT NTs,
It's Delicious, Bat pemoralizing, Say Colds,
aad They Take the Pledge
Against 1t
Especial to the World.)

Especial to the World.l
Chicago. July 9-Following the teach
ings Of Prot. Cook, the man who never
was kissed, kissing has been voted .'vul-
gar, demoralizing and unnecessary in
respectable courtships," by sixteen
Northwestern University students, men
and women, who have formed the Anti
Oscillation Society.
Here is the pledge taken BY the mem
bers:
Realizing that kissing is very de-
moralizing and detrimental, but still de-
licious, and that it is exclusive and
contagious, we, the undersigned students
of Northwestern University, following
The example of our much beloved Prof
Algie R. Cook, solemnly swear that we
will refrain from all kissing"
Prof. Cook, who inspired the idea, has
been elected an honorary member of the
organization.
The words he let fall in his unusual
claims to virtue have had a subtle in
fiuence on the students at the university,
and are responsible for the present sud-
den opposition to kissing Strange to
say, group of goods are at the bottom
of the conspiracy to discourage the os-
culatory endeavcrs of the young men.
The men are less enthusiastic, but from
force of circumstances were brought into
the movement.
To assist the anti-osculators in keep
ing their pledge fasting is absolutely
prohibited, and hearty diet is recon-
nended on the theory that love cannot
flourish except on bread and water.
Hugging and "goo-goo eyes are not
tabooed by the society. although mem
bers are not permitted to hold CONVEX
sations over five minutes in length IN
couples. Boating is allowable, pro-
vided four persons are in the boat, and to
carry out this regulation the society al
ways takes in four new members at
time. maintaining the total membership
at some multiple of four.
To be eligible TO membership in the
Apti-Kissing League a person must be
between the ages of sixteen and thirty,
good looking, with a past experience IL

New Shade Of GRAY.

Very few new colors have come out
this year but there is one that has
new name. at all events. Ice gray 1t
is called. and the shade is really diff
ferent from any of the multitudinous
grays which have been on the market.
ice gray is not quite smoke color,
nor is it at all on the drab order, but
it is an attempt at pale, clear. trans
parent looking gray. A blush CLINT or
simmer gives it the name.
New color effects in dress goods are
continually being invented, and every
year we see more beautiful shades
than those we have known before
The simple pinks and blues and hard
grays Of ten years ago would hardly
be acceptable now. Softer colors and
complex interminglings o. shades are
sought by the smart women.
The new ice gray is beautiful
winter tint. and is handsome wher
made up with touches of green. OF
simply combined with white finished
by trimming of delicate frosty-look
ing lace.
