sUP1, BLISS IS RE-HlRED
School Boald at Meeting This Afternoon
Takes Favorable Action on supsIlntsad-=
81 ..,s ent and All Teachers. ~.

At an adjourned regular meeting
of the Board of Educat ton of the
Independent District Of Virginia,
held at 400 o'clock this afternoon,
Superintendent Lafayette Bliss and
the entire corps of efficient teachers
under his charge, were reelected
for the ensuing year.
We trust this action on the part
of the Board as regards Superin-
tendent Bliss, which is strictly in
conformity with the desires of the
patrons of the schools as whole,
may have a soothing influence on
the coterie of Virginians and Du.
luthians who have sought his re-
moval for personal reasons.
Virginia schools are acknowl-
edged as the peer of any in the
state, and we dislike to see the en-
tire school system impaired that a
personal score may be evened. The
action of the Board is justified by
Mr.. Bliss high standing as an edu-
Gator, and will receive general COM
nlendation.

mings are effective. One hat of two
toned taffeta in blue and green has
jaunty bow of the taffeta posed al
most on the summit of the high-peak-
ed crown. A more elaborate model in
purple taffeta is a poke and is covered
with heavy gold lace. At the back is
a large bow, the loops coming out at
the sides on the order of the peas
ant bonnet. This is only one of the
many purple hats, for the regal color
is having an immense vogue at the
present moment.
Among the draped hats and turbans
those of silky French beaver are the
prettiest. One charming little model
in this kind of beaver is soft and
brown and fuzzy like a rabbit and has
two lone ears of velvet that stand up
that a demure, brown eyed girl could
wear to perfection.
Bands of ostrich feathers are used
on some of the hats with quite pleas
ing results. Birds of paradise in the
natural tints are employed extensively
on many of the most expensive models.
Ono striking hat of stiff black silk
felt, large, with the brim turned up
sharply at the back, has two beautiful
birds set rather low about the crown,
the heads coming together in the
front. Breasts of birds, particularly
white ones, are a favorite form of
ornamentation this season. One black
velvet hat has the whole top covered
in this manner.
