For infants it is not necessary to wear
mourning at all. especially when there

Mourning is not often worn for broth

A young woman does not wear crepe,
and white is frequently accepted for
mourning. OF course, all dresses must
be simple and there must be no jewelry.
1t Is not good taste to put young chill
dren in mourning. Simple dress, as all
children should wear at all times. is
all that should be worn. No jewery
should be worn.

Crepe is one of the materials used as
a symbol of mourning. and in this coun-
try black is the color adhered to. Let
me urge my readers to a realization of
the fact that any extreme idea is al
ways an evidence of a lack of refine
ment. The woman who dresses in too
much crepe is making herself conspicu-
ous-the very thing which mourning is
intended to obviate.
band Of crepe is usually placed on
q plain veil, which is worn over the
face. The veil should not be too long
nor too thick. and the band of crepe
should not be more than one inch in
width.
Gloves should be dull suede or glace

Handbags. purses, ETC., should be in
