A VERY smart suede hat Of rich brown
tint, which is new in style. has a
full crown pleated into brim that mar
rows in front and slightly turns up from
the face. while at the back it is broader
and can be turned up or down at will.
Thus it can be made a shelter for the
neck from rain or sun, while the effect
OF the full, soft crown is becoming to
many more faces than the hard round
crowns usually seen in suede hats. At
the side this hat is simply adorned with
a handsome pheasant mount.
. A fascinating bonnet Is carried out in
gray silk. and made in absolutely coal
scuttle shape. The fiat poke Is trimmed
on the top with vertical straps of violet
silk, and at the right side there Is a tiny
bunch of conventional apples in gray silk
strapped with violet bands. The brim Of
the bonnet is slightly turned up from the
long gray veil is drawn from the back

Pin Money for the College Girl

0NE way that the college girl may
~ make money is by renting to other
students attractive pictures. So often
students quarters in dormitories and
boarding houses are very cheerless There
seems to be no effort made on account
of q presumably short stay. which often
lasts for four years-not very short time
after all! Students will not be bothered
carrying pictures back and forth In their
trunks but they do not like to always
have nothing but bare walls to look at,
80 that most of. them are willing TO in
vest a few cents a year to remedy this
defect.
A good way to make collection of
pretty. inexpensive pictures is TO go to
the wholesale picture stores and buy
prints from the work Of the old masters
These prints are much more artistic than
even the best work of most amateur
painters, because they are reproductions
OF the worlds best pictures.
In one OF the prominent eastern col
leges pictures are rented to the students
at the rate Of 20 cents year for the
use OF one picture. and the proceeds are
used to help worthy and needy students:
and from a collection Of several hundred
students there is quite a sum Of money
raised each year in this unpretentious
manner.
While in the college mentioned the man.
agement. carries on this little business.
there is no reason whatever why some in
dividual girl students could not easily do
it i'm other colleges and at least pay part
of their college expenses. 1T would take
very little time, and the cost of the pic
lures would not be much by following the
above suggestions. and would cost moth
ing after the first year because they
would have their stock on hand from year
to year.
Another suggestion is to follow the
method OF one Of the largest consesya-
