QUITE EXTENSIVELY

There is much pleatlng In use
now. and II isn't all used for neck
wear. although II does seem as
though nothing huffier than neck
wear would be found. Ruffles and
frills galore are lovely on some and
so absurd on others. Narrow side
pleatings can. however. be worn by
almost any figure, which is not true

The time has come to speak n
word In favor OF brown. The sea-

women have been inclined TO under
estimate the high style interest In
brown. During the first showings
OF the imports for midsummer
brown was impressive and some
thing OF a surprise for, by that
time. women were so happy that 1t
was a blue year.
With the interesting brown and
white, brown and grege and brown
and beige prints came lovely cos
tunes in which yellow and brown
were pleasantly associated.

We owe our official celebration OF
Flag day TO President Woodrow

sued a proclamation designating

and II has been so observed since
that time.

be difficult TO award that title TO
any one person, since several Amer
leans contributed 10 the idea.
One OF them is a woman, Mrs.
Laura B. Prisk, widely known as
the Mother OF Flag day" During
President Wilson's administration
she was editor OF the Patriotic In
structor in New York and In that
publication suggested setting aside
June IA as Flag day. Her sugges-
