EnEAR READERS: The question OF
- frocks and presents for the Sweet
Girl Graduate has now been fully
settled; almost every June brides
trousseau, which has been the center
of interest for so many weeks, is
either finished, or nearing completion
-and now, as the walrus in Alice in
Wonderland says, "The time has come
Ito talk of many things
we're not going to discuss "cabbages
and kings" for the former are too un-
poetic a subject for the beautiful
month Of June, and far be it from
Pollyto mention that other most un-
popular of topics in these shopping
columns;-this space is reserved for
pleasant things ONLYl And it's "Va-
cations" this time. Oh! The magic
sound of the word!
Do you realize how much your
summer enjoyment depends upon the
clothes you take with you. I've known
vacations which were dismal failure,
because the things packed in the
steamer trunk had not been intelli-
| gently selected.
The stores and shops are over
flowing now with lovely vacation togs I;
things which will certainly occasion
joy in the hearts of those who are
planning midsummer trips. l am
ready aid willing to aid and advise
you about the needful things to make
your vacation happy one.
A very ultra New York shop intro
duces its new, old-time calico frocks
by name-the Sally Perkins, the
Nancy Hanks, the Janice Meridith
and the Abigail Adams. What a
charming idea! a->.
HWHAT'S in name?" That which
w we spell "organdy," or or
gandie," by any other spelling would
look just as sweet That exquisite ma
terial will certainly cast a spell over
you, when you see the new efrocks
made of it at F. w. Thornes.
They were just being taken from
the packing boxes, when | stepped
into this shop at 1872 Farnam
last Thursday, and / fairly went into
ecstacies over the freshness and cool
ness of them. One of crispy white
organdie trimmed with bands of yell
low, minded me of jonquils and DAFT
fodils. 1t was priced $l3.75, and comes
in sizes IA to lS, and also in rose and
white. Another model of luscious
shade of apricot daintily trimmed with
val lace and numerous cluster tucks,
with a firty sash of the material, is
priced $l975.
Narrow shoulders and tight sleeves
are reported to be smart for fall suits
but not SO in top coats.
4 N effervescent little June bride
a exclaimed while ] was looking
over her gifts the other day, DO OBJ
serve all this lovely, bubbly glass
warel Wasn't it Thoughtful Of them at
Orchard & Wilhelm's to suggest it
to so many of my friends, when they
went in there to buy wedding gifts
for me? Now you see have my
table glassware complete-goblets,
tum9lers, ice tea glasses, high sher-
bets and dessert plates. It's the lowell
est thing the way everything happens
to match so perfectly" Just such
instances as this are one of the salts
flying things about buying presents in
the Gift Shop Of this store. The in
terest taken in each individual Gus
toner, and the helpful suggestions
given, make gift-buying a pleasure.
Conservative styles, but the best
possible materials rule fashion.
II URRAY!-A new triple alliance
IL is formed, and it's mighty con-
genial one indeed! Miss Dainty White
Blouse and Popular White Wash
Skirt, who have always been such con-
slant companions, have invited Sleeve
less Jacket of Pique and Gabardine to
Join them. / saw the three together
down at Herzberg's Women's Tog-
gerry. and they certainly did look de-
cidedly smart. Sleeveless jackets of
these washable fabrics have regular
"wescut" appearance, and are as tail
ored as can be. If you want one,
you'd best get it at once, for they're
so good-looking they're bound to 60
in hurry. Priced $5.95, $695 and
..95. Lovely white skirts, with many
new style features may be
seen at The Toggery, 1917 Douglas,
for $2o5 to $o95. New organdy and
voile blouses, $2.95 to $685.
