TRIM LITTLE FROCK FOR TH ECOLLEGE GIRU Collese grlrls will be quick to appreciate the practical points of this trl gone-piece frock of black and white plaid in lightweight worsted or mohair. The ankle-length walking skirt gains a tablier effect by virtue of the black-taffta-plped shaped sections extending from the waist to the knees at fro- .'and back, the Glbson-paited blouse closes in front over a muslin-embroidery guimpe and the band and button-trimmed sleeves are rather wider than the conventional full-length coat type. A rose and mallnetrlmmed hat repeats the black-and-white scheme of the simple little costume.

Mrs. Briggs spoke of this noted author just as it. writer, second! ns a man, showing his forccfulness as a writer, and his sympathetic, brave and chferful nature t;s a man. She told of his versatility, his artistic ability, both in prose and poetry, his skill in the use of words and power of imparting to thorn the "vital quality of things," and that no "independent epigrams or sudden outbursts of eloquence" were to be found in his writings, but that "he was complete in texture, uniform in
Quality from line to lino, from page to page," and that he was always at his best. He cotitained within himself a "whole troop of singuarly assorted characters: the poet and artist, the moralist and preacher, the humorist and jester characters, not rare separately but rare indeed to be found united in a single personality. Stevenson preached the gospel of cheerfulness; better still, he practiced it; he went through life with the arrows of death
quivering in his heart, but he uttered
no complaints, clung to the optimistic view of life and in the end gave this as his verdict: "Sick or well, I've had
a splendid life of it." The deepest source, the strongest factor was his
confidence In the divine order of things
in other words, his faith. Mrs. Briggs
held the unbroken attention of the au
dience until the end and it was re
gretted that the talk was not longer
A discussion followed with Mrs. Grif
fin as leader. In which incidents of the
writer's life and quotations from his
poems were given. A very nicely ar
ranged musical program was given at the opening by Mrs. Lyons and Misses
Lottie and Norma Robblns. After adjournment the ladies were served with
light refreshments. MRS. EATT ESCHER. . m A CHILDREN'S PARTY.
