usually white in the natural cotton en-

The summer girl. the sweetest and most

Summer time is the season when styles
are especially fitted to dainty femininity.
Everything fanciful is possible. Those
tints most becoming to her complexion
and her own peculiar style are; every

make her apparel comfortable and to
conform with summer heat often brings

A FERN LUNCHEON.

fern luncheon is one OF the prettiest Of
special functions for the summer. and one,
too, since ferns abound everywhere, that is
easiest arranged, according to Harper's
Bazaar Ferns should decorate the halls, the
parlors and the piazzas, and the table should
show them in generous profusion. They may
be arranged as a centerpiece in any way that
fancy dictates, and If shades are used for
candles, they should be white and fern
trimmed. The name cards, too should be
decorated with ferns. The ice course may
simulate growing ferns. Get at the florists
tiny unused pots Of the sort in which cut
tings are slipped. Wash them thoroughly,
and fill with vanilla ice-cream. sprinkling a
little grated chocolate on the top. AS these
are sent to the table, stick fern branch in

SUMMER SPORTS OF THE u VIC. 4.
Rowing Tennis and Outing Clubs Make Life Merry for the Girls
of the Association.

z-OR THE f1rst time since it was or
N ganized, the Rowing club of the
M Young Women's Christian Asso-
- citation is meeting at Lake Har-,
riet- For six years the club rowed on
Lake Calhoun, and really preferred the
smaller lake, as the crowd there is not so
large of summer evening, but this sea-
son it was impossible to obtain enough
boats. Only five or six could be secured,
and as the club has fortyfive members,
the number was entirely too small. At
Lake Harriet the ten or eleven boats
could be had every "wednesday evening,
although the rowing hours are shortened
during the season Of the band concerts
by the greater demand. Four young
women row in every boat, and they are
growing very skilful in their manage
ment of the oars. @
Mrs. q. M. Walworth has been the cap
tain and Miss May Cooke, coach, for
four summers. The club was organized
sly years ago and had rather desultory
training at first. Mrs. Walworth and
Miss Cooke aimed to teach the members
how TO row. not splash, the water, and
they have made the sport SO interesting
