The little Chestnut Hill pro. who is
sinsularly like Chick Evans in build
and characteristics, except for the vio-
lent thatch of red aloft, had one bad
round all through the play for the open
that knocked him to the ropes when
it came to the title. He shot an SO the
first round. But he was willing to be
the goat and every round was first man
off the tee.
His partner shot somewhere up there
over a hundred, which is no kind of
competition in medal play. Talman had
to contend with the early morning
mists, fogs and mostly dew.
The dew in the valley, of a morning,
there is hot a bit worse than heavy
rain. Puts are soggy affairs, the water
spritzing in every direction on the slow
green at that hour. After the clear
up they are faster.

Morrie. Morning got to wallop 'em on
the green to reach the stick. After

Yesterday he was so for the first round,

graduate.
Bracelets are very popular as com
menCement gifts and dearest to the
heart of sweet-siXteen is the bracelet
that may be padlocked on, the key TO
/ the paddock in the possession of some
very particular friend-usually girl
chum, for few girls of sixteen have
reached the stage of masculine adorers
who wish on" bracelets. The gradu'
ating bracelet may be as expensive as
you like, but it must be simple and
unostentatious in style and without
sparkling stones. The bracelet in the
picture is well-chosen, narrow band
of fiat gold with inset sections of blue
enamel. OF course, the bracelet must
be engraved inside with the initials OF
the girl graduate and the date of her
graduation. An appropriate sentiment
or good wish, running around the
bracelet, inside, in tiny script will add
to the value of the gift as remem-
brance of an important occasion.
Brooches and rings divide honors in
popularity as commencement gifts.
The young girl intensely fancies big
signet ring; she prefers it to girlish
looking circlet set with a small yet
perfect gem. OF course, no young girl
may wear a large jewel of any kind
it would be the height of bad taste;
and there remain only small jewels
tiny pin-points of diamonds, specks of
rubies or sapphires chastely mounted
on narrow bands of gold. In special
favor for graduation gifts are the sig

or set with a fiat cabuchon in seal ring
effect The top of the setting opens
on a tiny hinge and under it is shall
low space where sweet sixteen may
hide q talisman or somebody's picture
Just the features cut carefully out of
snapshot and fitted into the shallow
receptacle.
Pendants and lockets are also in the
approved list for graduation gifts.
They may be suspended on slender
chains of gold or platinum, or on mar
row black silk ribbon with small, o~na-
mental clasps or "slides." The older

schools nowadays insist upon rather
simple costumes for commencement
day; partly because it is desired that
the youthful candidates for diplomas
shall not have their heads too full OF
frills and furbelows during the last
weeks Of study. and partly because
certain members of the class, less we'll
to-do than their mates, might be EN-
barrassed by inability to appear in cos
tunes equaling those of girls in bet
ter circumstances Grammar schools
and high schools all over the country
insist upon simple and inexpensive
graduating dresses and some of the
city schools even go so far as to forbid
white slippers and stockings with the
simple white dress-and in the main
the decree is wise, though sometimes
wrath and disappointment are caused
in girlish hearts thereby. The girl who
graduates from a private school has
more liberty of choice when it comes
to her commencement frock; though
even schools where all the pupils could
well afford to graduate in satin and
real lace are apt to request costumes
of girlish simplicity.
For all Ages OF Girl Graduates
Ready made graduating frocks
come in all sizes and for all ages of
girlhood-that is. they range from
ten or eleven year old sizes to the 81

az proved commencement gift for
H ~ a girl was a fan hung on a long
H chain. Now it is wrist-watch
with a bracelet to encircle the arm.
The modern girl graduate, yearnlng
for a wrist-watch would feel terribly
disgruntled If presented with fan ana
chain-no matter how expensive the
fun-gift might be. Almost as many
wrist watches are sold all over the
United States al commencement time
as were sold when Uncle Sans troops
were getting ready to go to France.
Every girl who hasn't a wrist-watch
longs for one, and every slender arm
that is held up for diploma on the
graduating occasion is adorned with
the gift of gifts. The left arm stretched
up? Surely, when there is brand
new, adorable wrist-watch upon it,
The newest wrist-watches are tiny
oblong affairs attached to narrow
black ribbon, jeweled clasps holding
the ribbon bracelet securely. Smaller
and smaller grow these pretty wrist
watches; one marvels how they can
be made so tiny and yet keep time as
we'll as they do. TO the watch repair
er, however, these tiny feminine wrist
watches are u sore trial. They come
in by the thousands for repairs, for
where four women out of ten used to
wear watches, nine women out of ten
wear them now-on the wrist-and
the watch worn on the wrist of a
young and lively girl is prone to meet
with mishaps. And. of course, the tiny
watches require close work and con-
siderable strain of eyesight even when
a strong glass is worn.
However. the girl graduate must
have her wrist-watch as the all-import-
ant present. If she already has the
watch, she will choose for her COM
mencement gift a bracelet, and after
the bracelet. n brooch or n string of
pearl beads. Gone are the days when
thoughtful books were a proper and
perfect gift from relatives at COM
mencement seasons. The modern girl
would politely thank her earnest-mind-
ed Auntie for a set of Shakespeare or
vellum bound volume of Browning
but her adorable nose would turn up
just the least bit and her heart would
sink with disappointment.
