the Worlds Fair to best advantage.

clearinghouse or near by, and depend

she choose in neckwear-and the man

rid Of a heavy vest. White shirtwaists
are a Joy to womankind, but by mid.
day they lose their freshness and at
night they are distressing. A silk shirt.
waist suit is not warm and just the
thing.
MONDAY-Get a birds eye view.
Make it an outdoor day. Take a map
Of the grounds and get your bearings.
Take the lntramural train at Station
1, or at Station IL, the terminus, and
ride all the way around, keeping both
eyes wide open for points of interest
noted on the map. Leaving the Intra-
mural after the round trip, walk TO-.
ward the Grand Basin and Cascade
Fountains, identifying the buildings
along the way, drinking in the beauty,
resting near the music pavilion to hear
one or two numbers, studying the
Louisiana monument and finally climb
ing the Colonnade of States.
Statuary has greeted one on every
side. The artists names are conspi.
cuous and ne time is lost in taking this
walk leisurely. From the Colonnade
of States, with a map in hand, one
may pick out the large buildings and
get enduring impressions of the grand
eur of the Exposition as a whole.
A return walk may be made to the
right past the German building to the
Sunken garden and the imposing Gov
crnment building. But by all means
stay out of doors one day. Take sup
per out of doors and linger around the
Grand Basin while the lights are being
turned on. Choose a place near a band
stand and after dark take to the Pike
and keep out of doors.
TUESDAY-If one is a lover Of art
devote the early hours to the galleries.
Take the Intramural to Art Palace sta
ton. Make up your mind that you
can't see it all and spend this morning
in the east pavilion-Sweden, Ger
many, Holland, Canada, Austria. At
noon go out of doors and turn to the

porch along the way-a cup of tea in
