senior class at the high school. ac-
cording 20 a decision reached by them

Following the uniform dress adopt
ed by the graduating class OF last year
a merry debate resulted as 10 what
course of procedure this years senior
girls would follow. Every angle OF
the proposition had been threshed out
before the girls called the meeting
BY an almost unanimous vote the
girls at the meeting decided on simple
white cotton dresses for the occasion.
This style was suggested as being the
least expensive and as being most &C
ceptable. No definite price was set
as to the cost of the gowns, as many
of the girls will make their own
dresses. II was specified. however,
that no material except cotton should
be used in the dress, and that they
should not be elaborate in design.
This is expected to make the cost of
the gowns within the reach of all.
Black shoes and stockings and no
gloves were also decided upon at the
Uniformity in gowns was never
considered at the meeting, according
10 one senior girl, they having de-
cided that the custom was out of
date as the only style which could
be consistently worn would be sailor
suit Last years class wore sailor
suits and found them not only un-
comfortable but useless after the one
night of wearing. The cost of the
garment was said TO be too great in
proportion TO the amount of service
derived from it,
