Nv M The young lady in the center is wearing the newest piece of neckwear. It comes in organdie, and the shops are showing it in blue, pink, tan and lavender. The piece is made all in one, the part forming the collar held in pinch tucks and edged with lace. The chemise with the rounded neck is shown hero with the front laid in pinch tucks. For the young girl the Eton collar shown is very smart with its spoiled Windsor tie of foulard. The'set at the upper right is ot white organdie with checktred edge HAVE you ever stopped to consider, the rejuvenating powers of a new piece ct neckwear? For the small ex penditure of a few dollars a blouse, a dress or a coat fakes on an entirely new lease of life. One may sometimes begrudge the amount of money that Is expended In accessories; but the truth Is, when you stop to realize It, that It Is these very accessories that make or mar a costume. Particularly this year you will find accessories vitally important, due to tje reason that our plain blue dresses re quire just that bit of touching up that only a smart piece of neckwear can give, and the otherwise monotonous col ored frook may be thus' enlivened and freshened. I have been told by the buyers of neckwear that women have never shown ,such a marked preference for artistic neckwear as they have dis played, this season, and the opinion of a buyer In by no means to be disregarded, as she knows "what is what." For the above reason the makers of novelties have given a great assortment from .which to choose, so that a woman may gat just what she desires to fit her In dividual taste. One pf tho very newest collar Ideas Is Illustrated en the 'figure In the center of the drawing today. This Is of or gandie and may' be purchased In white Or In the various shades of organdie now popular which, as you know, are blue. pink, tan and iavenaer. Tnls ma- mwm -V R.

A reporter sat In one corner of the car, but he didn't dare lock. Finally he "fell." He risked one eye Just for a tvee, small peep. It was there, a wonderful piece of nrt needlework or art machine work. Encircling the eagle was a ring of gulden stars. And herr Is where the reporter "fell clown." He was s'ruck with the thought that the said pretty young miss might be honoring some person In the service of Uncle Sam maybe a sweetheart or maybe a father or brother, or even a husband but ho lacked the ncrvo to mako Inquiry. And the eagle-bedecked silk hosiery's meaning Is still a mystery. LEHIGH SHORTENS COURSES Three-Year Curriculum Arranged, With Shorter Summer Vacation llethlehem, Pn June 12.
