 Campus Togs Have A Saucy Swing.
 Everyday raiment for the young college girl should be, above all, jaunty and dashing; not with the dash of advanced modishness but with the dash and saucy swing of youth and out of doors. At least half of the college girls days will be spent in the open; even if she does not Ego in", for athletics, there will be long cross- country tramps, skating, and standing about the campus watching the col lege sports, and she will be forever running in and out, from one college building to another; so the very first requirement will be a campus coat, with a more or less rakish sport hat to match. the sort of hat and coat that can be tossed on and dragged off a dozen times day and exposed to sun, rain, mist and snow without dan ger of serious injury 4 splendid campus coat for an active college girl is pictured in the belted model of mixed worsted in brownish green tone. This coat covers the frock entirely and is warm and comfortable, the col lar may be buttoned snugly about the throat and the front Is double breast ad a1thnnuh ic buttons. The girl will appreciate also the capacious pockets in which her hands will be thrust most of the time. In the picture the coats wearer is shown smartly attired for her first trip to the alma mater. Her felt hat with its freshly folded scarf, her immaculate white gloves and trim walking boots attest this; later, on the campus the gloves will be absent. the hat brim probably dragged down and the smart boots will be exchanged for lower heeled, laced boots of tan leather-the best sort for everyday wear.
 If such a long coat is not desired. there are comfortable box coats on this years lines, with a widely rippIing line while shoulder and sleeve fit rather closely. Deep cuffs, pockets and a collar that may be buttoned up around the neck are distinguishing style marks of the box coat for au- tnmn and the garment may ripple by reason of circular cut from the shoulders or have gathers set along shallow yoke. Very smart models of covert cloth have a sharply sloping line at the lower edge-downward to- ward the back, al high, band collar fastened around at one side with a single huge button and another big button midway of the front opening.
 Campus hats. being for young girls, are essentially youthful in style. The tan of corduroy in some bright color is a favorite with girlhood just now and the soft felt hat banded with a pugarree of printed silk has also its faithful adherents. There are also soft brimmed felt hats with button holing in worsted at the edge and large velvet or silk flowers cut from brocade appliqued to the crown by buttonholing. A very natty campus hat is of felt with upper brim covered with silk and q silk band around the crown. At one side of the brim this silk band is slashed to show the felt crown beneath and is laced together with white braid which passes through embroidered eyelets in the silk.
 In And Out-Door Frocks.
 As has been said earlier. the pros- pective college girl will need several froeks; two for class room hours one or two more for dinner and evening wear, and at least two regulation evfning or dancing dresses of dainty fabric. The class room frock will be
