these costumes, the cape S the thing,
made of satin or heavy silk, and hat
with a sheer brim, perhaps of georgette
crepe or chiffon. Then, too, organdie
dresses and their accompanying organ

afternoon wear, Some of these dainty
froeks have hemstitching in the waist

the only trimming deemed necessary.
Rutfies, however, are ever dear to the
heart of the summer girl, and are in no

them on every type of dress, from the

luxuries!) are much beruffied. Indeed,
all that is possible has been done to in

OUR WEEKLY FASHION LETTER
Showing the Charm That Summers Made Off,
Frocks for Sunny Afternoons

Country club time is here, and also
the time for country club clothes, both
of the sport and dress variety. From
every side come reports of the populari-
ty of the sleeveless sports coat, some
times worn with a matching skirt and
sometimes with skirt of white or
some contrasting color. Even as riding
habits, these coats have taken the place
of sweaters of wool or silk. Baronette
satin is used for many of the separate
skirts, and with these fascinating skirts
are worn thin waists of georgette crepe,
silk crepe or wolfe. Afternoon dresses
of the more formal variety are made of

Colors play an important. part. In
many of the hospitals where wounded
soldiers are being nursed back to health,
the colors of their surroundings are
considered as much almost as their med
icine and other treatment. Colors that
we are wearing this summer are gay,
and feminine, and it is right that they
should be so. We, "over here, must
do all in our power to keep things bright
and cheerful.
Another design developed in figured
wolfe is illustrated here. The odd hip
drapery is decided style feature, the
collar and straps are cut in one and it is
the straps that hold this drapery il
place. This is truly dress of distinc
ton.

jerome Schools Cafeteria

tesy of Supt w. M. Massey and Miss

last Monday noon.
| Some four or five weeks ago the
that a good substantial lunch could
be prepared and served to the pupils
of the Jerome schools at a price with
in the reach of all and thereby less
ems the worries of the parents in
preparing a lunch for their children.
Steps wer etaken at once along the
| lines suggested and the movement
has been a success from the start
The lunch is prepared by the do
nestle science class under the sup
erviion of the teacher, Miss Payne
and from which the students get
credits in their study. A charge is
get their lunch there, Tickets are sold
at 81 for ten lunches and it is re-
quired that the holders of the ticket
notify the teacher before 10 o'clock
of the day that they will not be
there for lunch so that preparations
may be made according to the num-
Der there will be present. That it
is a popular thing with students as
well as the teachers is evidenced from
the fact that between ninety and one
hundred avail themselves OF this OPP
portunity every noon.
While this lunch room was not
started as a money making scheme
from reports handed in by Miss Payne
| it appears that quite little revenue
is derived from it. That the parents
and those interested in the Jerome
schools may get a peter idea of the
way the cafeteria is conducted it is
the idea of Miss Payne to invite
few of the merchants in from day to
day and our advice is, be sure and
go when invited.

wedding of Miss Elizabeth Maria
Arps to Mr.. Frank Bower of
Arco. Idaho. The wedding was a quiet
affair. the immediate family only be-
Ing present. Rev. r. l.. Roberts
conducted the service, using the beau
tiful ring ceremony. The bride wore
a gown of wisteria pussy willow silk,
trimmed with silver lace and beads
and appeared most charming.
The bride needs no introduction to
Jerome people, she having been rails
ed here from childhood, attending the
Jerome schools, from which she grad
uated with high honors and after at
bending the Normal school was en-
gagged as teacher She has always
proven herself a most estimable
young lady, always willing and eager
to do her part to assist in church
work and on occasion she was need
ed in the singing. and while we con
graduate the young man on his
choice. we regret the loss of the lady
from our midst.
The groom is yohng man of Arco
and he is highly spoken of by those
who know him.
After refreshments were served
the young couple left at once for
Arco. where they will be at home to
their friends after February LIST. May
theirs be happy and prosperous life,
is the wish of the Times
