YORK TO THE SAUk GEN.
TIRE HERALD
New York, May 20.

New York, May 20.
The same excitement, the same
eager planning, the same thrills OF
pleasure and happiness are going on
in the minds of the youthful gradu-
ates of this year, just as they have
been every past year and as they will
in every year to come. Only the girls
are different and only the frocks they
wear are different.
Many fashion authority, / am sure,
is being consulted already as to how
the graduation frock should be made.
First the material, then the style.
These are the two important items in
planning the graduation frock.
The choice of the material depends
on how much is to be spent on the
dress; the choice of style depends on
your figure and your individual taste.
The simplest cotton frock may be
made to look just as distinctive as a
dress that costs very much.
Very charming indeed are the sheer,
filmly materials. Chiffon, Georgette,
crepe, silk wolfe, silk marquisette, or
CANDY, batiste and fine wolfe are the
materials most in vogue. This year
organdy is a prime favorite and net
is another, and sometimes both of
these are combined in a dress.

bordered by hedge of willows and
the whole carpeted with a beautiful

Anexample of the beauty Of ex-
IRENE simplicity is seen in the frock
of organdy in the first sketch. Just
sheer organdy and tiny picot edge

this dainty frock. It is completed by
an underbodice of lace and crushed
girdle of soft robbon. The waist is
made with body and sleeves in one and
a surplice front, and the skirt is cut
to give the effect of the oval silhou-

To many girls the dress OF Georg-

in one-piece style, the deep yoke-belt

one-piece frocks.

Net FrOcks and Laces Most Popular.
There is a great deal of lace used;
lace flouncing, banding, allover and
narrow edging used in the various diff
ferent ways all tend to make dress
more elaborate, and just the essence
of daintiness that every girl pictures
her frock to be in her minds eye.
Nets of all kinds are in use this sea-
son, including very fine nets, coarser
nets and the open square-meshed nets
which combine especially well with
filet lace, one of the very fashionable
laces this summer.
Net dresses are usually worn over
silk slips, but some are worn over slips
of very fine batiste, while very elabor-
ate dresses are made with the new
silver cloth foundations.
According to custom, the frock in
which the young graduate receives her
diploma is all white, but for class-day
exercises and other attendant festivi-
ties colors are used.
Most likely the program for gradua-
ton week will include a dance, and a
frock for this occasion must be plan
ned. A very fashionable and exceed
ingly pretty idea is to have a pale
pink silk slip under dress Of white or
cream colored net, lace flouncing, or
any of the transparent materials re-
quiring foundations. This foundation
is not entirely plain, but may be trim
med with rows of pale blue ribbon or
small chiffon flowers arranged in
clusters.
The Important Girdle
Girdles are a very important fea-
ture of frocks this year and conse-
quently there are many styles from
which to choose. The long, narrow
beaded girdles are particularly pretty
with frocks of Georgette or chiffon.
With net, organdy and wolfe dresses,
soft girdles of wide ribbon are most
effective. There are a number of
ways in which they may be arranged.
Some are caught in loops at the right
or left side, others are wound around
the waist, brought to the center front,
and arranged in loose knot with the
ends hanging down the length of the
skirt. Frequently the ends of ribbon
girdles are finished with silk fringes.
Bead fringes or tassels usually fin
ish the ends of those girdles made Of
the dress materials, when of crepe de
Chine, Georgette crepe, or chiffon.
Styles are Very Girlish
The styles of the dresses are very
girlish, and the trend of simplicity
which characterizes most of the FASH
ions to day is even more accentuated
in youthful frocks.
