It is developed in blue-green -satin ami very dark yellow-green GeorgoMe for the gniinpe. ^The- entire effect T*f* charming, but only the fair freshness of youth could attempt and wear sue- ' ct'ssfully these beautiful yet trying colors; But then there is the lecture' time to be considered. Serge , frocks, especially the new slip-in variety, are quite desir able for classroom wear. This style Qt dress .fills the requirements of looking trim and neat, and yet carries a world of elegance with it. But one soon tires of the continuous wear of three or four dresses; -and then the little things we .spoke of before offer themselves as the contributions subject to change. What a refreshing touch a change of collar aud cuffs gives a dress ! Just irna lite a sheer organdie of apricot color and turquoise blue. . Doesn't it sound like a dream. And that's Just what it in. It would just add' the right jtoUCb of color on a dark blue frock, which ^ojird b<T undoubtedly trlAltolngless. Pique and poplin aye also used tor these dis tinguishing marks of correct costume. The fall season is contributing a most bewildering collection 6f stifnning hats. And, what's more, the nTyles are so wide and varied that every woman will be able to Wear the hat that suits her own individual type and utill be sanctioned by fashion. For hopeless, indeed, is the girl who wears something just because It is the style. # A careful study of as sets and failings should first receive at tention. rO RED CROSS CANTEEN We would like to correct a mistake in last week* paper in regard to the officers of the.
