Girl Graduates This Year Will Wear Simpler Frocks
BY MARY MARSHALL.

HERE VIII be Tar less CiSSenSion
this year than last when princi-
pals and headmistreSSeS of girls
i schools request that frocks for
graduation and class day be
made long enough to cover the knees,
Not that this years fair graduates are
any more proper than those of year
ego. but simply that fashions have
changed and girls who keep informed
on matters of dress know that exposed
knees are no longer up to date
The test Of skirt lengths should not
be made when the wearey is standing.
The idea now seems To be that skirts
should be long enough to cover the
bend OF the knee when the wearer
is sitting And this can be achieved
with less actual length Of skirt if it is
fairy full at the hem.
The simple type of the all-white
frock appropriate for graduation Is
quite spt to look a trifie dowdy If the
skirt Is res .iv Ions. II is for that rpa-
son that suggest = fairly full-s6irted
mo6el--sa that fairly short model
may still os worn.
At one Of the schools where rules
already have been land down for grad
ustion frocks the suggestion Is MADE
that uneven hemlineS be avoided
Skirts that dip down nearly 70 the floor
st the back and rise almost 10 the
knees at the front--or skirts that drip
Gown in points at the side and back
are unsttractive when worn under an
academic gown. Besides, a more or
less urtfon> hemlne looks much better
when >1ulbev Of girls are 10 Sit or
val: tceetheT st graduation cere-
monies.
AT some Of the schools rulss have
"A been made against short sleeves
81 others there is simply rule against
tbs entirely sleeveless frock. At others
beaded or lace trimmed irocSs are
frowne0 upon. No girl oucht 10 object
to any Of these rulings since There Is
slwavS room for s simple tailored all
white frock IN the wardrobe after grad

o. in the process n making Pure i
white georgette or crepe de chime Is the
favored material and the honors seem +

SCHOOL SUPPER

Don't forget the annual school
chicken supper Friday evening in
the Church basement. The money
made by this supper is used for the
general school fund.
Often times the patrons do not
realize just what the occasion for
such fund is. With this fund we
purchase supplementary books for
the various departments, pencil
sharpners, maps and many other
necessary items for school use.
This fund is handled entirely by the
students themselves. One of the
students becomes treasurer of this
fund and at the close of the year
makes report on the receipts and
expenditures.

dismissing the bill complaint.
The Taxi Company had filed bill

CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES TIED
Deciding Game To Be Played At
PerryvilIe Saturday

Elk Mills tied the post season
series for the Susquehanna League
championship, on Saturday after
noon, by winning from Rising Sun.
The Elk Mills boys, after being
trimmed to the tune of IL to 1 the
Saturday previous, came to Rising
Sun and showed wonderful rever-
sal of form, playing gilt edge ball
behind their pitcher, Wilson, who
kept the Sun sluggers in check
throughout.
Both pitchers twirled in superb
form, but Wilson seemed to have the
edge on Jeffries. Six hits was all
the teams could get.
Rising Sun was first to score, get
ting run across in the second,
when Nolan was hit by pitched
ball, and helped around the bases on
a hit and an out. Wilson then tight
ened up, and despite the fact that
the bases were loaded in sixth and
again in last half OF the ninth, when
things looked bright for the home
team, was equal to the task and
prevented the needed hit.
Elk Mills scored in the fourth,
when base on balls was followed
by sacrifice and hit. The win
ing run came in the eighth, after
two were out, and was due to base
on balls, an error and a hit.
The teams each have one game to
their credit and the deciding game
will be played at Perryville Saturday
afternoon, at three O'Clock. The
score:

AMERICAN LEGION AMBULANCE
SERVICE

Week of September II to 80 Inc.
With eight calls answered during
the past week the American Legion
Ambulance Service saw little de-
crease in activity for the hectic week
of September 10th. The September
driving crew have certainly estab-
lished record for continuous activ-
ity that will probably stand for many
months. In this connection too
much credit cannot be given to chief
driver John j. Maloney for the very
efficient manner in which he has, at
considerable personal sacrifice, hand
led the ambulance service during the
period of increased activity.
One of the records established by
the service last week, stood barely
seven days, being again broken by
this weeks activities. This was the
record of average mileage per trip
for the week, which was pushed up
from the 52.5 miles of last week to
53.25 miles per trip this week.
Communities served this week in
cluded Rising Sun, Chesapeake City,
Elkton, Cecilton and Charlestown
and activities involved two trips to
