Quaker Girl Learns
True Earlham Spirit

College days have begun in earnest
at Earlham. The new students have
no longer a haunted feeling of
| strangeness, but lack only one thing
to feel like they had been born and
| reared in the shadow of her beautiful
halls. The pretty Quaker girl will at
tend the first football game of the
season next Saturday, then and not
| until then will she become fully
initiated into the college life and
spirit.
Still she is not yet athrill with the
true Earlham spirit until the student
| body assemblies in the grandstand on
Reid field for the first football game
| of the season. AS the moleskin-clad
warriors trot on the field she has diff
ficulty in recognizing them as the
well-groomed college men who walk
about the campus and attend classes
| with her on week days. Unconscious
ly she joins in the cheers which greet
thrill as the stalwart boys turn their
| faces toward the stands and smile.
Sets Loyalty Aflame.
| This is the spark of loyalty which
bursts forth into a flame of devotion,
and lust for victory when the first
shrill whistle and the Kickoff send
| the twenty-five perfectly trained men
| into physical combat.
How pretty the fair Quaker lass is,
as she stands on tiptoe with flushed
| cheeks and abated breath, watching
| every play. When the husky little
| quarterback breaks away for a bril-.
liant end run, she utters shrek of
| Joy.
After the game as the prespiring,
| grimyfaced boys trot gamely to Bundy
hall, she feels that they are her
brothers, that all the students are one
big family and that she has played
| an important part in bringing victory
to the Earlham standard.
School friendships do much to &C.
! ment the student to his alma mater,
but it is the football days with their
glowing enthusiasm that loom large
and warm in memory in later years,
when the coed looks back to her col
lege life.
Days Are carefree.
College days are the days of joy
and freedom from responsibility. True
| there are the professors who buzz
about as flies in ointment, especially
at the close of each semester, but the
graduate looks back to the college
career as the most carefree and pleas
ureable period of her existence. She
goes along having good time, stimuli
taneously absorbing store OF knowl-
edge which surprises her at unexpect-
ed turns all the way through life, as
something she learned In school is al
ways recurring to her.
Like all other. goods the Earlham
girl is exposing herself to the danger
of serious love affair from the day
| she enters the campus until she leaves
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1915-10-02

with her degree. She finds the col
lege man, gallant, congenial and at
tractive. Their high ideals and their
dreams of careers after graduation
demand her admiration, respect and
sometimes love. Many a Quaker lass
has come to Earfham heartfree. and
has left at the end of four years. as
the promised wife of some worthy
young man who has gone into the
world before, to prepare a place for
her. When they grow old, they will
always look back to the Quaker school
and bless the institution for bringing
them together from distant parts of
the country. Their college romance
will always be source of joy and
of pleasant Renaissance to them.

particular veil which she most covcts is
not to be found. And this season new
veilings have appeared with astonishing
rapidity. Time was when one veil was
quite sufficient. Not so. now. For every
hat milady wears, she must have her
separate veil. correct for that hat and

BELTS AND HANDBAGS FOR
g. -. 20. b, -; - FALL
1t was quite to be expected that a sea-
son of military fashions would bring
belts to the fore; and the predominance
of tailored styles adds to the vogue of
belts which, this fall promise to be very
ornate, conspicuous factors of dress.
The neatest belt is one Of patent leather
with a small buckle of colored galalith,
and even this belt has, at the back, an
ornament of colored suede set between
two small buckles. A belt of green
leather has ornaments of green galalith
and white pearl; some stunning black
leather belts have buckles of black gala
18th inset with white enamel. This inlay
of enamel in galalith is an entirely new
idea.
Silk handbags are much more in favor

bag is made very dainty. with pleatet

fitting neckwear now. A particularly
stunning stock of sheer French organdie
is edged at top and bottom with an inch
wide binding of black pussy willow tat
feta, and the flare collar which springs
from this stock has four points, also
edged with the black taffeta. A small,
smart black taffeta bow is set in front,
under the chin.
Equally impressive in height is pleat-
ed frill of organdie which rises above.
and falls below stock of black faille
classique. The stock points upward at
the sides, holding the pleated frill closely
against the cheeks, and tapers a little
below the chin, where the inevitable
tailored bow is set. Puritanically severe
is a tall stock of white organdie but
toned down the front with tiny pearl
buttons and loops. Two f1emstitched
organdie tabs fare over the high edge
of the stock, maintaining their crisp po-
sition by starch rather than wiring.
