faces. Plumpness is not at all essential
for beauty il the young girls neck and
Inroat. Even decided thinness has a love-

Glass day exercises. whether held under
the campus trees or indoors, bring out
the daintiest and most frivolous furbe-
lows brought to commencement week
events. Lingerie frocks are the rule, and
this year many of these diaphanous cos
tunes f~iil he made with long skirts to
trail over the campus lawns and walks.
Of all the lingerie frocks those made
of the fine. beautiful embroideries seem
the favorites this year. These new en-
broideres are so delicate in character
that many of them may be drawn through
a ring. and these handsome embroideries
lend themselves well to the somewhat Sc
we're and dignified lines Of the present
mode. A class day frock illustrated is of
allover embroidered batiste in tunic effect.
this embroidery tunic being cut away
around the armholes and on the side
seams to show a simulated under tunic Of
another fabric-in this case pin-tucked
batiste and lace. Wide insertions of
heavy lace outline these cutaway por-
tions. and at the foot is deep flounce
of plain batiste with many frills of lace
thereon. The embroidery tunic comes up
over the woke of tucked batiste the
sleeves Of the last-named material having
appliques of embroidery in flower pat
terms. This costume is completed by a
white erin hat, faced with pale green
chiffon and trimmed with masses of lilies
of the valley in their green leaves.
Another charming class day costume Is
of lavender null trimmed with embroid-
cry banding TO match and white point
d'esprit insertion. The whole effect Of
this frock is very -irlish, and the skirt,
with alternate strips Of lace and pin
tucked null, is very graceful. laven-
der chiffon parasol adds emphasis to the
costume, and the hat is a white chip
trimmed with violet-colored velvet ribbon
and a cabochon of violets surrounding
white roses which shade into the tea rose
tone.
Kid gloves will be out of the question
during the sultry weather Of commence
ment time; but Miss Betty this year will
have delectable silk gloves embellshed
for her benefit. with all sorts of exquisite
hand embroideries: With the lavender
null dress are shown pale lavender silk
gloves wrought with festooned garlands
In two tones of pale lavender. With the
pink linen redingote dress one may wear
pale pink silk gloves worked with THY
rosebuds in natural color. If white gloves
are worn they may be embroidered in
pure white or in colors, or they may
have cameo patterns in Understanding
to the French notion for black and white
effects. And If commencement week
proves too much for the glove finger tips
Miss Betty will not care a whit, for her
long embroidered gloves may be packed
off forthwith to be supplied with new
hands.
