Wide Field of Study
for Scholars.

Many years ago an Englishman willed
to Washington money enough to build

diffusion Of knowledge among men," And,
of course. he meant women.

The erection, years ago. of the old Ma
tional Museum, and the recent completion
of the new building for the accommoda-
tion of the governments ever-growing
world treasures, have in great measure
removed from the Smithsonian Institution

Aim of the School.

In outlining the scope of its work the
prospectus of the Cathedral School for
Boys has this to say:
.'The aim of the school is to develop
Christian manhood and to prepare boys
for their work in life. They are taught
how to study, and in addition to COM
pleting college entrance requirements are
trained in habits of industry. application
and thoroughness.
|. THE instruction is carefully planned
and sufficiently extensive to prepare a
boy for entrance to any university or
technical school or to West Point or
Annapolis. Written tests are held from
time TO time, apd examinations covering
the whole subject are required of all at
the close of the school year. The length
of time required to complete the college
preparatory course beginning with the
third form is four years
THE school Is a part of the National
Cathedral Foundation. and is, therefore
qualified to give careful religious and
moral oversight to the Boys intrusted to
its care. Its location at the seat of the
National Capital affords unusual facilities
for the training of boys in the principles
of good citizenship and the development
of a strong and sound patriotism

FADS AND FASHIONS

The tailored frock Of today is In
many respects entirely different from
the tailored frock of last spring. The
absolutely plain, two-and-a-half-yard-
wide trotter skirt Of the present day,
of silk cashmere, or fine serge
in taupe, sagegreen or slate blue has
no visible opening and it's normally
placed belt is attached to blouse OF
taffeta striped in two tones and
trimmed with a shoulder collar OF
the same material as the skirt. The
sewed-in conventionally shaped sleeves
are absolutely plain, fit closely about
the wrists and cover almost half of
the hands; they are an excellent type
of the sleeve to be generally worn in
the very mar future.
Often it is the girdle which furnish
es smartness to the midautumn tailor
er frock of cashmere or serge. OBJ
viously the band defining the normally
placed waist line and concealing the
left side placket cannot match either
blouse or skirt, as it would then be
merged with one or the other; nor
could it be of velvet, because to wear
that material in the morning is bad
form, but Hercules or any other fancy
silk braid perfectly solves the ques-
ton of the girdle for the before lunch
