Miss Georgia Neese and Miss Violet
Matthews will have matinee dane
ing party Saturday afternoon, March
%, at McRae's hall, for the boys and
girls of their set.
The perfect woman who has been
found among the 400 girl students of
Cornell university overturns many old
fashioned notions She is not a farm
girl, but city bred. yet she is study
ing agriculture for a profession. She
does not eat candy. She is feet. Z
inches tall and weighs Ill pounds. The
young lady of the fashionable novel 50
years ago had a waist that could be
spanned with two hands, meaning some
16 inches wrought by painful artifice;
naturally she tainted at least once in
every chapter and had to be restored
with smelling salts after cutting her
corset strings. Cornell's perfect wom-
an has a 30.3-inch waist and a chest
measure of the Venus of Milo. She
has never tainted: has never been i'll
at all. Gone is the girl who used to
chew slate pencils to make her face
white and was never seen abroad with
out her veil and parasol- Forgotten is
the maxim that the finest women, like
the finest flowers. are raised under
glass" The American girl of today, if
gifted with the leisure, plays tennis
and golf and courts sunlight; the
chances are about five to one that she
cannot possibly squeeze herself into her
grandmother's wedding gown, says the
New York World. In this great trans
formation favorable environment and
plenty of food have scarcely had more
to do than active habits and the growth
of sensible ideas of physical well being"
This Cornell girl is really quite
Amazonian in proportions. 1t will be
remembered that K. Us athletic fresh
men girls according to the reports of
gymna SUM instructors over the United
States, carried off the palm for lung
tests and tests of strength. Even if
not so large the Cornell. the Kansas
maids are of a right wholesome type.
