.Simplified Glass Day
AT Brown University
Especial L. The Herald

PROVIDENCE. II. l.. June ls.-In the
sImpltied class day exercises M Brown
university today there was little to remind
the old grad Of the gay doings that were
customary on similar occasions IN the
past. The war and the absence from col
lege of scores of men who have enlisted in
various branches of the military service
necessitated a complete revision Of the
usual class day program. The gay fra
ternity stands which used to line the mid
die campus on class day were absent to-
day. and although the Under the Elm
exercises were carried out IN the main, the
band concerts and the society dance, were
eliminated. In place of the supper of the
senior class there was a flag raising and
patriotic demonstration on the campus.

/. and Dusky liked puzzles. So he followed
| his mother with his nose in her tracks.
The ground was damp and the scent was
SO strong that he could have IolloWed
her with his eyes shut. Presently tney
came to little open place which was al
most pure sand and on which jolly. round,
bright, Mr.. Sun was shining with all MS
might. Mrs. Reddy trotted straight across
this. Dusky followed. He had Kept his
nose to the ground as he had been told
to do.
The instant he reached that sand some
thing queer happened. He could no
longer smell the scent from his mothers
feet. No. sir, he could no longer smell
that scent. He kept right on across the
sandy place. and the instant he was
across the scent tickled his little piacK
nose as strong as ever. BY ana ny tney
came to another little sandy place and
the same thing happened. It was very
queer, very queer, indeed. 1t happened
two or three times more Whenever ms
mother stepped on hot dry sand she left
no scent, or else so little that ne couiu
hardly smell it at all.
Mrs. Reddy didn't say word until they
were back home once more; ihen she
smiled at Dusky and asked MIN Wnat
he had learned. Dusky blinked his
shrewd, sharp little eyes and looked very
thoughtful.

thing he added hopefully.

His mother smiled more than ever:

she .'You learned what l wanted you

sand doesn't hold scent from the feet OF

Kashmir Embroidery.

Kashmir embroidery is a novelty
that is bound to find favor simply be-
cause it is SO unusual. 1t is a rather
coarse embroidery worked on linen, but
it gives the effect of fine stitching. The
patterns are of the conventional sort
that we glibly call oriental The col
ors are very often crude and vivid vet,
withal, attractive. Table covers and
other articles for the cottage or bunga-
low living room would be especially
worth while.

Popularity Of Ribbon.

Ribbon is used in many novel ways
this summer. One shop shows girdles
and shoulder straps made Of wide mes
saline ribbon to be worn over white
b1ouses with skirts OF silk jersey of the
same color. These are really consid-
cred quite smart. White satin sport
skirts are sometimes striped up and
down with wide bands of lowered rib
bon and belt of the same ribbon is
used.
