by Miss Dora Merrill, of Brooklyn, N.
Y, of the class of 1902. Miss Milhol-
land also broke a record, having put
the eight-pound shot 81 feet IA in
ches, against the former record of 20
feet 1 IL inches. Miss Milholland is
one of the strongest girls ever at Vas
sar and promises to break more rec
ords before leaving the college for her
home. She is making a speciality of
the studies of sociology and civil gov
eminent, while Miss Villas is taking a
general course
with candy hearts before the men, the
latter trying to catch the hearts in
their mouths.
Then there is the balloon figure in
which the men are incased in red-and-
white tissueL balloons, the women
choosing their partners from the col
or. The fan" figure, where the men
hold up small fans from behind a
screen or large paper fan that conceals
their faces while the women choose
their partners from the colors of the.
fans, and the cap" figure, where the
various paper headgear favors, two OF
kind, are tied in tissue paper bag
hung from the chandelier. When this
is broken by a cotton SNOWFALL, aimed
by the girls in turn, the owners of the
duplicate caps find themselves part
ners.
A new figure of white-and-yellow
chickens fastened by a rubber cord at
the end of wands is attractive The
handles of these wands extend from
a large cake made of wire and COW
cred with red tissue paper. At sig
nal these are pulled, the paper torn
away and the chicks released. With
lese the men favor the maids. Where
these are the real, fluffy, stuffed chick
ems, they are utilized afterward for
powder puffs.

The Nicholas Longworths are eX-
pected to spend some time this sum-
mer in San Francisco, and one of the
society writer's says that there will
probably be much entertaining in their
honor" 1t is not likely that this pre-
diction will come true if Mrs. Long
worth preserves the feelings of Miss
Alice Roosevelt on the subject. 1t was
generally believed that the reason the
presidents daughter did not stop off
mere on her return trip from Japan
was because she strenuously objected
to being entertained by the local aris-
tocracy. She had taste of it in the
large reception at which she was the
star for a brief period, and in which
she appeared in a costume which Mrs
Oracle Osborn would have disapproved
Of, and which our feminine society
censors still discuss as "a white waist
with angel sleeves and a black skirt"
If Mrs. Longworth comes here this
summer and is willing to be entertain
ed it is safe to say it will not be at
large receptions of the kind that have
been lampooned by literary lions so
many times that we ought really to
know better by this time.-Call.
