gKI'LISS DISCUSSES HIGH SCHOOL
GIRLS' ATTITUDE ON UNIFORMS
' ' ' ' '
President df ' One of the Senior Classes Gives
'J&.i Tv,4-:. T -. J AT-i.
Wm Adopting Them
(03113 day perhaps wcunan will bo un
. M- shackled from hor lnordlnato lovo of
t drcsa'd hopo I am "dead and gone" Joy
t that day), and then tho sex femlnlno
'' wJU pursue Its various vocations and
1 itrocatlonq In some standardized uniform
'.' designed to garb tall and short, thin and
' stout htondo and brunette with equal tin
1 feecomlngnesa.
J' Juat what shape this futuro "poly
'"faiurtol" will assume can only bo of this
time a mattor of conjocturo. It may bo'
' that the business women of, let us say,
60 years licnco will como to hor ofllce In
the morning In a simplified drcclan body
covering1, mado perhaps of four yards of
cheosecloth at 10 conts a yard; or perhaps
ft garb a la pajama, such as tho- Chtncso
women (they wero over an advanced race)
now weal", will bo construed ns tho proper
Httlre for commercial occasions.
But as I Insinuated parenthetically In
nn above paragraph, I'm "ngln" uniforms
at lcaat for women, I bollevo clothes
and, tho planning and purchasing of them
contribute very definitely to woman's
happiness. Of course, by tho samo token,
It might bo argued that they contribute
. to 'her mlsory. But after all Is It not bet
ter to have boen happy nnd Buffeted for
it than novcr to have beon happy (sartorl
lty at all?
But, although tho era of uniforms Is
hot yot upon us, tho high school girls
With, nil tho youthful ardor that they pos
eesBoora doing what thoy can to prcclpl
tato tho time. Koch year more and moro
schools succumb to tho appeal of democ
racy. I think that Is tho high motlvo
that impels them, and their girls bid their
ftdlou to tho Alma Mater, clothed not In
tho frilly commencement frock such ns
oup mothers know It, but In raiment ns
severe and uncompromising as a trained
-.nurse's.
Of course, tho flno instinct which
prompts girls of wealth to forego thol ccr
" tain Joys of a real commencement dress,
costing moro than any dress they have
ever hod in their lives before, because
less fortunate classmates will bo "shown
up" dlsadvantagcously, is not to bo
Bccffed at. This is a fine, big thing,
but hcarkon to what ono of tho girls who
will graduate this year tolls me. She says
that ovon in thoso schools whero tho com
mencement uniforms havo beon adopted,
tho girls buy their dresses anyway and
wear them underneath tho uniforms.
Could anything bo moro dellclously fern
inlno or ironic than that?
In an exceedingly interesting lcttor,
this girl, JIlss VIoletta Sutton, president
of tho senior class at tho Philadelphia
High School for Girls, upholds tho action
of her class In voting negatively on the
attention of a uniform commencement
gown.
"Dear M'Mss The question of uniform
gowns has always been one of vital Im
portance, nnd Is especially so this year,
sinco two of our sister schools havo de
cided to adopt the gowns. Wo have con
sidered tho question, not only nmong the
girls themselves, but with our principal,
Miss Puncheon, who is always eager to
lesson tho expenses of tho girls, and the
girls unanimously voted against the
gowns.
Tho Idea of tho college- cap and gown,
such as the William Pcnn School Is about
to mlopt, was considered by most of the
girls to bo absurd. Why protend to be
what one Is not7 . Perhaps to tho com
mercial graduate who Is completing her
course there Is a rertnln glamour about
tho collegiate cap nnd gown; but to the
graduate of a school like ours, where only
tho two prepaintory courses, general nnd
classical, nro given, this Is not true.
"As for the uniform white gown, the
following arguments hnvo been given
first, every girl gets somo light dress for
tho Bummer, no matter what her financial
circumstances may bo, and wheic a regu
lation gown might prove expensive, a
whlto dress would not. Then, in a school
llko ours, whero a comparatively small
number of pupils enables the pupils and
teachers to bo on a very friendly basis,
great Influence Is exerted by tho faculty
over tho girls In the selection of simple
graduation dresses. Wo have had It Im
pressed on us that since tho graduation
exorcises nro alvvnys held In tho morning,
nn elaborate dress of the evening gown
typo not only makes us conspicuous, but
shows very poor taste.
"I might add ns a final argument, nnd
feel justified In doing m, that wherever
tho experiment of uniform gowns has
been tried It has been for tho most part
a failure, sinco virtually all of the girls
havo gotten new white dresses to wear
under tho gowns. More than one case
can be mentioned where this experiment
has defeated Its purpose and proved
futile.
"Our present graduating class Is very
proud of the way It has minimized the
expense of graduation In icgard to lecord
books, etc., and sinco every class usually
mnnages to do better than tho preceding
one, wo hopo that somo day tho Ideal
commencement at tho least cost may bo
obtained without tho girls relinquishing
their whlto commencement dresses.
"Those aro the most Important argu
ments offered by our girls. Sincerely,
'VIOLETTA B. SUTTON."

catelr, I am out of that class now, thanks to
so'mistress. but to a rood man who camo alonir
and married me. A servant girl Kcnerally needs
her money so bad that sho don't havo time to
throw up her Job and so out and look for a
better one. If she's a stranser In tho city, sho
cenerally has-to tako what Is ottered her. Al

Dear ITLlss Am wrltlnsr to you for advice
Tecardlnt my hair, which la In a. deplorable
State, the result of severe Illness.
Three years aro I had a severe case of ty
ehold fever. After I had recovered 1 found my
hair was coming: out very fast. Sty doctor
advised bavins it cut ore entirely, which I had
done.
Instead of comlnc In thick, as It had ben
before betas; cut off, it camo in very slowly,
thin and with sray hair, which sinco has been
Increasing1.
L am Just past SO and In good health. The
color of my hair was what you would call ash
color, and I wUl Indeed be very grateful It you
will advise ma how to make henna coloring.
This la tho formula I had given me. but
which takes no effect at all. I havo tried It
Jour tlmea without effect:
Ten cents' worth of henna leaves to a half
J Int of scalding water, which stood overnight,
then added ono teaspoontu! of henna powder,
which also stood overnight. This was strained
through a muslin cloth and then applied.
Any Information you may bo in position to
give mo, will bo very much appreciated
8. M. C.
YoUr hair had 30 years in which to
Brow, and now you expect It to achieve tho
tame luxuriance in three. A physician tells
We that the growth of hair Ib usually slow
after a. severe attack of typhoid. Also, It
you are not in a good physical condition at
present your hair will give you tho surest
Indication of that. The hair Is the barome
ter of tho body. You say you are In good
health, but Just the same. If I were you I
should get a physician's diagnosis on that.
No matter how young you ate, gray hair
Is Infinitely preferable to dyed hair, for, no
matter how clovcrly tho dyeing Is done, It
gives a harshness to tho face. However,
theso are matters ono must decide for one
self. -I do not think henna Is dangerous to
tho health ns so many dyes and bleaches
aro (you know insanity has been known to
result from tho use of somo of them).
An expert hairdresser has written tho
following recipe for me. It is advisable to
havo tho first application done by a coif
feur, unless you nr& very expert yourself.
Add to henna 2 ounces of black tea
cooked In 1G ounces of water. Stew it well,
remove from tho flro and add 2 ounces of
alcohol, 2 ounces bay rum, 2 ounces glycer
in Mix together with henna jou have been
using to make It stronger.
Dear M'LIss Seeral days ago I overturned a
sheet of flypaper on a mahogany piano bench,
and I am turning to you for some suggestion ns
t how to remoe tho glue without also removing
the varnish. I hae been afraid to try anything
at all. but as I do not feel like going to tho
expense of rellnlshtng tho bench. 1 wonder If jou
couldn't help me. E. M. S
I havo consulted several authorities, and
their ndvlco is to havo tho bench refinlshed.
Alcohol will remove the glue, but It also
removes the mahogany finish and tho var
nish. O
Before committing myself to this ex
pense, however, r think If I were you I
would try warm water. Take a soft cloth
and try to soften and remove the glue with
out letting the water run over the undam
aged part of tho bench. Tho water should
not bo too hot. If you succeed in removing
tho glue, apply a good furniture polish to
hide the stain as completely as possible.
XTHE FAMILY MEDICINE CHEST
SHOULD HOLD SIMPLE REMEDIES
By WILLIAM BRADY, M. D.
A SHELF five Inches wide and 11 Inches
ong will hold all the medicine any
Slain family needs to keep In the house
for emergencies. This condensation puts
to shams Dr. Elliott's five-foot bookshelf.
And to prove our assertion, here are the
; items:
I, One ounce of plain tincture of Iodine
in a rubber corked or glass-stoppered vial,
Use this to swab upon every cut, hrulse,
wound, burn or scratch not sufficient fo re
quire medical attention. Apply It just
once. Then protect the wound from In
fection by painting it with either
S. Flexible collodion, an ounce of which
may be kept In a .tightly corked vial ; or
. fey covering It over wth
i 9, Zlno oxide adhesive plaster, a one
i inch spool of which should be kept in place
fet court-plaster; or In tho case of a larger
wound or burn, bandaging upon It.
1. A pad qf sterile gauze, one yard of
Which may be kept In. a carton, and s
C. A gauxe bandage, two or three of
which one inch and two Inches wide, may
be kept on hand
8. One ounce of boric acid powder.
Thi I as good as any other mlU antiseptic
for use as an eye.wash, mouth-wash, gar
gle, douche or Irrigation to cleanse a
Wound. Ast much as will dissolve In freshly
boiled water is the strength to use for
any of these purposes.
7. A, collapsible tube of sterile petrola
tum (vaseline), which Is, in our humble
opinion, as useful and soothing as any
salve or ointment made fop any practical
Four ounces of aromatic syrup of
rhubarb ("eplced" syrup of rhubarb),
which will do all that castor oil can do for
any sick child, and pleasantly.
9. Tin box of half a dozen seldlltz
powdera. A seldlltz powder contains two
dams of Itochelle salts. It nolvea the
'gaits' problem on the rare occasions when
salts may be needed certainly neve; mere
ly as a laxative.
10. A vial containing 100 one-grain
tablets of phenolphthalein for general use
- us a mild, harinUsa laxative.

GOOD FOEM
Good Inrm queries should bo ad
dressed to Deborah Hush, written on
one side of the paver nnd signed with
full name and address, though initials
OK1A' icill be published upon request.
This column loffl appear in Monday's,
Wednesday's and Friday's livening
Ledger this week.
Several persons havo written for In
formation In regard to a wedding brcakfnBt.
what to provide and how to sero and what
to do for the bridal party.
When a genernl Invitation Is sent out for
a wedding It Is not usual to extend the In
vitation for breakfast to all tho guests, but
to tho relations and particular friends. It Is
Vnot often that more than several hundred
guests are invited. Music Is generally sup
plied at theso affairs, but It Is not neces
sary, and In a small tojvn house is better
dono away with ns the musicians take up
tho room which might bo otherwise used for
guests. The men servants should always bo
In evening livery nnd should bo detailed to
look nfter tho guests' wants. Usually it is
table Is set asldo for tho brld.il party and
this Is elaborately decorated and served. If
the house Is large enough to permit tho
seating of the other guests It is a cry good
plan to do so, but It Is perfectly nil right to
serve a buffet collation.
It Is not necessary to servo wine, though
champagno cup or punch is often used. The
supper Is usually mado up of such food aB
croquettes, lobster cutlets, tleUlcrt crabs,
chicken and lobster salad, sweetbread pat
ties, broiled oysters, Ices, cakes, bonbons
and every variety of dainty.
Invitations Dated
near Deborah Rush When ou answer an In
ltntton do jou put the date on which jou
write the answer at tho top of tho pnuer Where
should one's address bo plated? INQUlItlUt.
The date should lie placed nt the end of Iho
page in the lower left-hand corner nnd should
tie written out. as May the nineteenth. If tho
address Is not engracd on jour paper It should
l,o written at the upper right-hand corner of tho
note.
Birthday Parties
Wear Deborah ItMh-
old daughter a lilrthdnv party. How should I
woril tho Invitation I Intend to ubo corres
pondence cards. Hhould tho writing lie In
denftd or written straight across? Would It lip
Incorrect for my daughter to open tho gifts as
sh receives them or should sho wait until all tho
guests nro present? Is It necessary to wrlto
ackowledgmenls after tho party? in Introducing
a man and woman uhoso namo should In1 men
tioned first? lONOHANCU
I shall answer jour questions In tho order
In which jou ask them
Klrst. Word tho Invllntlon In this wav:
Address
Mr. nnd MrB
request tho pleosure of
Miss
cnmpanj- at the birthday party of
their daughter, Miss
on Snturday ornlng, Juno tho tenthr
at eight o'clock.
May thn nineteenth.
Second. It would be better form to write
the inwtntlons on small letter paper or note
paper than on a correspondence card. Corre
spondence enrds are ued more for Informal
llttlo notes than for Invitations or answers to
them.
Third. It Is usual to leave a margin of
! out a quarter of nn Inch on cither side of the
piier
Fourth, it would be more simple to open the
presents as they nro reielved and not make a
leremony of so doing hv nttlntr for all the
guests. Itesldes, It might he very embarrassing
to somo of tho guests if they havo not pro
vided themselves with presents.
I'lfth. It Is unnecessary to write letters If
each person has been thanked personally by
lour daughter.
Sixth. Under ordinary conditions it Is proper
to mention tho woman's nnm first, nnd to say,
"Miss , may I present Mr. 1"
Mutiinl's Meaning
Dear Deborah Rinh Flcnso tell me the mean
ing of mutual and also put It In a sentence
for me.
When a person saj's he Is very glad to htvo
met me I would llko to use the word mutual to
answer him. M. it. M.
Tho exnet meanlnc of the word mutual, ns
outlined In the dictionary. Is. reciprocal. Inter-
Irrhangcd, correlative. In other words, the
Wilcnsure or sorrow or Joy, or whatever the emn.
tion is. is equal on both sides Bhared by both,
as It were.
A perfectly good sentence and nnswer to the
remark which la made to jou would be. "Tho
pleasure Is mutual. 1 assure jou."

What ft pity that nil mothers cannot
