Mrs. Harold Roberts, of Havcrford. wears a

White and blnck-nnd-whlto costumes are

rather plain, and over it Is worn a cape-coat,
which falls almost to the knees In back and
shortens ut the front. Tho white is relieved
by a small, close-fitting lint of black velvet,
with upstanding goura feathers.
Miss Hope Benle, who is tall and statuesque,
has selected an outdoor costume which Is
charming for its simplicity. Her frock Is of

with a single huge scarlet flower nt the front.
A smart gown of black chiffon taffeta has
