OF the Carmargo Silhouette" II has
been launched by a leading New York
house and bids fair for the approach
ing season. Sunny Spain is the pic

have found their new vogue. The
lines OF the new silhouette are not as

the original wearer OF this style gown
and perhaps that Is sufficient reason
for its complex outline.
A costume would not be Spanish
without a bodice, so a tight-fittinl
bodice was chosen with rather shor
waistline. From beneath this full
overdress pokes out, thus giving
pinched-in effect at the waistline

nouncement follows:
The trustees OF the Phillips Exeter
Academy have approved the recon-
mendation OF the faculty that a ses-
sion OF the school be held during the
coming summer. The experiment will
be undertaken as a contribution to the
solving of the problem OF the wastage Of
American education. The summer SEES
sion will put the equipment of the school
in use for a considerable part OF the

for which It Is intended. An opportunity
Will be offered TO boys to get ahead in
their education by making good their de-
ficiencies in particular studies and by
training which will prepare them to do
the regular work Of the school year with
better chance of success It is felt
besides that a summer session will check
some OF the loss in efficiency which re-
suits from the excessive length Of the
vacation In that boys are now generally
unable from disuse to take up their
studies in September at the point at
which they have dropped them in June
and will check too some of the greater
hurt that often comes to boys from the
idleness, lack of discipline and frivolity
OF the summer months.

with this meet and to allow their stu

letic Union also has conceded the date
to Tome.
This big affair, which is the largest OF
its kind In the South. will undoubtedly
draw more visitors and competitors this
year than ever before. Since first be-
ing held in 1902 It has gradually in
creased in the number OF contestants and
the size OF the crowds, until 1t Is now
regarded as the big spring festival Of

As usual, Tome will be completely pre-
pared to care for eyGSsaStail. The quar-

SO remarkably constructed that II may
be put in the best of condition with COM
parative ease. Near one end OF the
track is a concrete grand stand, with n
seating capacity OF 1000 people. On the
adjoining banks, which in themselves
form natural, stands. other seats are
erected to care for at least 1000. The
gymnasium and cage. the dormitories

Arrangements are now complete for a
special boat to come up the river from

From the very beginning Indications
promise an unusual success. Always
favored with ideal weather for this &C.
