Striking New Gowns.
Usefulness and True Beauty Combined
in a Rare Degree in This
Seasons Costumes.
VISIT TO A FINE STORE.

A visit to the big Steiger store in
Springfield is always a pleasure, bus
perhaps 1t is safe to say with entire
sincerity that it never was so much a
pleasure as it is to-day. The large
addition to the building was opened
in March, and this is the first season
when entirely new styles for fall have
been displayed using these splendid
new rooms. The spring styles were
very fine, but this fall has produced
q change which is greater than any
thing for years. Both in women's
suits and millinery the adaptation Of
the design to the wearer is far more
truly artistic than for a long time.
This in itself makes the Steiger dis
play worth going far to zee, but be-
yond this, it is housed in a very
beautiful building. The designs of
the season have a fine simplicity
which is always the highest and
truest art, the oolorings being soft
and rich. One thinks Immediately
how beautiful a scene it would be in
a room full of women costumed in
these exquisite gowns, with their
long drapings and the soft glow OF
their oolors. The designers have
drawn on the fruits of the world this
year for their color inspiration. There
is the rsisin shade, softly suggestive
of purple, but lighter and more alive,
the raspberry shades, the apricot, and
others as beautifully delicate. The
apricot is really indesoribable in any
accurate terms. being a soft cream
with just a suggestion of raspberry
stint. 1t is a color which gives won
derful shadows in drapery.
The gown shown in the illustration
Is in such tint, made in q beautiful
crepe de chine with the new draped
back and trimmed with bands of hand
embroidery and gold passamenterie
With the exception of long swinging
pane in front, edged with the en-
broidery. with band of gold across
its lower end, this gown is severely
plain as to ormamentatiun, but it is
Of very great beauty in color and de-
sign. The hat is from the millinery
department.
Suit designing is to the writer more
interesting this season than for many
years. Last season the artists went
back to the Direotoire period of a
century and a half ago. But the
high-w aisted gowns were destined to
be of short-lived popularity They

CLOSE OF SCHOOLS
IS DRAWING NEAR
THE HIGH SCHOOL CLOSES ON
MAY 18TH.
The Date of the Closing of the Public
School Not Definitely Decided
Upon Yet.

The close of schools is drawing near
at hand as is evidenced by the close
attention to work that is being given
by the students of the different schools
and the preparations for the COM
mencement exercises that are already
in progress.
The Union high school will be the
first Tempe institution to close its
doors for the summer vacation. This
will take place on the 18th of, this
month with appropriate exercises at
the present quarters of the school in
the Curry building on the afternoon
of that date. Immediately following
the exercises. a reception will be ten
dered the students of the Sth grades
of the various schools in the Union
district a1d their parents by the fac
ulty of the high school. II is expected
that a majority of the pupils of the
Sth grades of these different schools
will be high school students next fall.
and the plan is to have them attend
the reception. together with their pa
rents. in order that they will feel more
at home when the school opens in the
fall.
The date of the closing of the public
school has not yet been definitely de-
cided and will not be until after the
meeting of the board tomorrow even
ing Some time was lost during the
winter and ii may be necessary to
make this up. 1t is probable though
that the school will close about the
middle of the present month. The Sth
grade of the public school will not dis
miss at the time the school closes.
continue work for one month longer
in order to make up a little lost time
and to better prepare the students for
entrance into the high school in the
fall.
