But must tell you of some of the

bodice had a round yoke and unlined
stock of the lace, and the sleeves were
full lace founees over puffs. With
this was worn draped veil, caught
with real orange blossoms. and new

on fiat. The bodice was made with a
coat effect. the skirts of which were
about Is inches deep and of the same
length all around The sleeves were
of elbow length, finished in fiat flounee
effect, slightly puffed. The hat worn
with this costume was of the narrow
rolled brim and pointed front style,
trimmed with great fat chous of chif
fon tulle and blue plumes. The two lit.
tie flower girls were dressed in white
null over yellow silk, made in empire
style, with lace yokes and berthas, and
yellow sashes gave petty color com.
pletion to the simple gowns. The
bridesmaids wore light blue gowns of
chiffon 5roadcloth and instead of bou
quets carried blue parasols to match
the gown.
The gowns had skirts that barely es
capped the ground and Eton coats, both
skirt and coat being decorated with
straps laid on in key pattern. The
skirts had three or four inch plaits,
stitched to beneath the hip line. The
Etons came to the top of the belt and
left little of the blouse to be seen,
which latter were made of lace with a
jabot of the same showing where the
coat opened at the neck The hats
were of a deep shade of cream leg
horn, with blue tulle box plated in
at the back and trimmed in the front
and sides with large blue wings. The
bride s mother wore a dress of gray
chiffon gauze trimmed in fiat founces
of black lace medallions, with which
she wore white hat trimmed with
black and white tips.
A gown seen at n late reception was
of white batiste cloth with open
work embroidery over pink taffeta. 1t
was cut as princess robe, fitted to
the figure above and at the waist line,
with a big pink bow decorating the
front of the bust at the center. From
this bow streamers were carried round
under the arm and up TO the center Of
the back, and there tied with a bow
and allowed to fall in great streamers
The elbows were of the puffed variety
with eapes of embroidery falling over
them at the shoulders.

game are to be given to the Y. NJ C.

The teachers. who have been dubbed
'The Whalebones," flushed with en-
thusiasm by the recent victory over
the ministers, are feeling confident
that they will be there with the
goods and that the legal fraternity
wouldn't have a look in. On the other
hand the lawyers say they have a few
motions and demurrers up their
sleeve that will be sprung on the ped
agogues that will make them look very
sick when the game is over. Every

school will be on hand to boost for the

played to indicate there is mail for
collection.
Patrons, whose boxes are not now
provided with signals, are requested
to attach some device to attract the at
tention of the carrier.
