Just at present the felt hat which

school closed last year has been rival

French dressmakers been making the

but young women at ali the smart
resorts in August wore these two
piece costumes in preference to the
one piece frock. These may be of wool
jersey or balbriggan, or OF crepe de
chine when they are to be worn be-
meath cloth coat. In some of the
new French jumper frocks the short
skirt shows pleats all round. Inverted
box pleats at the side often take care
of the fullness in the little jumper

permanent wave might have been
present when the Summer began. SO
1t has become a custom with women
to have their hair rewaved when Au-
tumn comes. But the smart school
girl is very particular about her wave;
it must be a wide wave and very
smooth-not frizzy and kinky And
the establishment of the permanent
waver who is reputed to give this type
of smooth wide wave is a mecca for
discriminating women nowadays.

Especially important it seems in the
schoolgirl to have hair that remains
neat despite rather harsh treatment.
So she makes up her mind, usually, to
have either very smooth and straight
locks or to have wavy hair. In the
latter case she has a permanent wave
put in at the beginning Of the college
or school year and counts on having
that save her from curling irons or
hairdressers until the following
Spring. There will be all that the
permanent wavers can possibly do

Convention among school and college
girls has accepted fur coats of rae

other rather coarse furs. And most
school or college girls would rather
wear a coat of that description than
one Of Russian sable or other precious
peltry that, though ten times as val
liable. was not what the other girls
were wearing.
Anything approaching real original

schoolgirls. A little felt hat that can

Savage Gorilla .
Feared in jungle

THE savage gorilla of West Africa
is perhaps the most feared of all
beasts Of the jungle, for when the
smaller animals hear him crashing
through the underbrush, beating on
his shaggy chest with his long arms,
they scamper away in terror.
He is a trouble-maker, and swag-
gers about with A leer on his ugly,
