QUESTION OF UNDERWEAR,
While lace trimmed garments pretty and
tempting, they will not stand their weekly tub

this reason it Is far better for everyday wear
to choose blind embroidery something that is
durable yet withal attractive. Sets OF under
clothes having a simple scolloped edge done by
hand machinery and with possibly dot or
two in each scollop, make an excellent choice.
Many college girls wear the most exquisite
lingerie such a bride might envy They are
elaboratcly made, frequently put together by
hand and far too extravagant a whin ac-
cording TO older and more conservative minds.
This practice is encouraged in by the
close intimacy existing between girls who are
