Wearing of Crepe.

Mourning as deep as that adopted by
middle-aged women is not as rule worn
by young girls, yet it is decreed that the
latter shall be SO dressed as to leave
no doubt Of recent bereavement. Gen
orally crepe is not put on by q woman
under twenty-one years of age, but on
the contrary If a girl of seventeen or
eighteeh wishes to wear crepe she may
have hats trimmed with it and touches
of crepe on her frocks.
Trimmings, when for the purpose OF
decoration, are not worn by any out
small children when in mourning. 1t is
for that reason lace is banished. ana
not until the time of mourning has ex-
pred is it to be put on. Its substitute
for gowns that may be called 'dressy
are brussels net, or point d'esprit, either
of which is simple nets, dotted If one de-
sires. The material is employed both
as bands and for -edging.
More and more, as time goes on. custom
sanctions the wearing Of pure white. un-
mixed with black. for girls and young
women.
A fashionable young married woman in
mourning for her father has worn white
entirely in the house this winter, and has
no black in her summer wardrobe save
DrtIildnlf1G- sui lcI lIdFCtih6. 11Ci
father died in the late autumn. White
alone is deeper mourning than black and
white the latter combination being re-
garded as second mourning.
Smart frocks of white, in first mourn
| ing, are conspicuousiy trimmed with mar
row bands of white English crepe. When
the dresses are for young girls, and
those who have just made their debut,
the bands are narrow, being hardly
more than heavy cords.
A girl in mourning for q parent may
put on black and white at the end of
six months If she wishes, and the adop-
ton is frequently a wise one, for it per-
mits her more latitude in accepting social
Invitations. 1t is not advisable for a
young person to be too long out of gale
ties suitable for her age, nor can she go
| to any gathering OF friends clad in deep
est mourning. So the happy medium
! is arrived at by wearing the symbol of
bereavement, but having it modified from
| that first degree. With little care In
avoiding unsuitable trimmings and ma
| terials. there will be no doubt of mourn
| ing dress even when only the 'lightest''
| is worn.
At the end of six months a young girl
| in mourning for a parent may go to
luncheons, to matinees, small dinners and
may look on at dances, but she is not
supposed Ito dance until one year has
passed. HOSANCaA SCHUYLER.
