A Neck-Wear Shower.

A fall bride says the prettiest show
er the girls of her home town gave
her was = "neck-wear' downpour. The
lovely part was that each girl made
with her own fair fingers the dainty
creation for the bride who had grown
up among them and was SO soon to go
far away across the sea. No one
can have too many stocks and collars,
and there was every variety imagin-
able, some being of Irish CROCHET. The
table center piece was composed of
the white gilly flower, often called
Stocks" and the place cards were
bogus certificates of stock" drawn
upon the Bank of Matrimony and
signed by her majesty, the American
Woman" with Cupid" named as treas
urer. The gifts were all done up in
dainty tissue paper tied with white
satin ribbon and were brought in on
a tray with bows of tulle on each
handle. A wee maiden dressed as;
Cupid presented the tray to the bride.

Novel Cotton Wedding.


This affair was celebrated way down
In old Kentucky, and was such de-
hghtful affair that I am sure our read
ers in all parts of the country win be
able to adapt ideas from 1t TO suit
their own needs and conditions. The
invitations said please come IN cot
ton frock." This conveyed the idea
that II was to be an informal affair.
The spacious porches and grounds
were lighted with many lanterns, and
dotted over the lawn were great white
cotton umbrellas, such as are used for
shade on wagons. They were on long
stakes driven into the ground, and had
Japanese lantern lighted and sus-
pended from each rib; rugs and chairs
were underneath
These trysting places were much
sought in the intervals between
dances. There was large platform
erected with negro players, Just like
the plantation dances before the war.
Before the dancing the hostess pro-
duced bandana ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, to
which the men sewed the strings;
then a wee colored china doll was
given each girl, with bits of chamois
skin from which she was to make a
pen wiper for her partner.
The refreshments were typically
southern: Individual chicken pies,
hot corn mullins, tiny stuffed peppers,
iced tea and delicious watermelon.

Latest Kansas Events.
Home Economics Club.

The X s. A. c., through it's extern
sion department, is making an effort
to extend its services through all the
various channels of demand. One OF
these is the establishing of the Home
Economics clubs for girls or young
women n smaller towns and villages
and even in the rural districts. These
clubs are designed to be substitutes
for the home economic training In the
public schools. Any community may
have as many of these clubs as they
care to organize since the conditions
governing them are readily met. The
clubs or classes must have a regular
time and place of meeting. They must
be in charge of some competent leader
such as a school teacher, house
keeper or some mature woman who
has time to devote to the work. If it
is possible to have simple equipment
at the meeting place the work could
all be done there or some woman's
kitchen might be used as a demonstra-
ton laboratory where the leader might
do the work with the girls looking on.
The work which is sent out free from
the college consists of a course of
twenty printed lessons on cookery or
sewing. The lessons on cookery are
made up or recipes to illustrate the
various classes of cookery and instruc-
tons governing each class. The les
sons on sewing are based on common
practical needs and consist of instruc-
lions concerning the particular subject
of the lesson and directions how to
make each article. These lessons are
gotten up in the simplest manner pas
sible so that the school girls will read
lily understand them.
