and package and knlck knacks, smashed

J and around tha crowd, shrieksand groans
I of engines and bargeremen, special and

of the trains, th return ta town of the

day season waa opened at th state cap
; ltal December 18. Fully 1,500 students
had gone to their homes to spend th time
from th 18th until January 4, when the
J old grind will be resumed: It wsa a
; repetition of tha scene of last yean, of the
year before that and on back sine th
, university came Into existence.
During the next two weeks thera will b

H tnuslo gave them not sufficient courage to

m place and down low over th windows of
tha mysterious abodes of these th our
tains are drawn.
j Before tha Exodaa.
Of the 2,X students of th university
nearly every freshman and sophomore
J has gone, but many of th seniors and
Juniors who hav tasted of th sweets of
' city 11 fo remain. But there was much
j doing before this aggregation got out of
; this dear old Lincoln. Th Falladlans, th
Dolians, th member of th Union gav
J their literary and informal doing during
th week, and the members of the soror-
Itles gave their little entertainments. They
J prepared a Christmas tree, from : the
I branches of which each got a littla re
" membrance. They entertained In the man
."ner of Hallowe'en. They bit apple from a
tub of water and th other things that go
-to start the holidays. The fraternity boys
got In on their Informal hops, during the
last several days. They Invited themselves
to see the girls and they made a rather
.warm time In the old town while It lasted.
All thes things were given, doubtless,
for an object. The main one of which
.was to show the entertaining ability dt
; those now gone away, to the end that those
! who remain tauty enjoy th pangs of home
sickness that wear away the very life of
' the freshman.
But the object will fail. Those who
stayed In Lincoln know what Is In store for
mem. i ney learaca in meir junior year
Following close on the heels of th d
: parture of th little ones come the teaoh
ers for their annual meeting. . They com
fresh from the schoolrooms, full of energy
;and. ambitious for a hilarious time. Their
stay will be on long- drawn-out dream of
; Tcllaa and "goo goo" for the university big
; boys and bis girls. It Is so every year. Th
"teacher hav th run of th university and
' its grounds, and they hav never failed to
take advantage of It. The seniors and
Juniors have the run of the teachers, and
they take advantage of It These teachers
will be Initiated In the mysteries of so
cieties that never existed until this oc
casion arose. They will be shewn the
tuysterles of the "ral" house and they will
be given a taste of real club Ufa. All these
; things Is why the seniors and Juniors re
main in town. ' i
. ' . .. '
Frateraltlea Will Celebrate.
Another thing that keeps them here Is the
taot that "frat" ties are cast aside and It
is a free-for-all-go-where-your-please ef
, fair. There are no formal functions down
on the program, and what Informal affairs
will be puUed oft will spring up In a day
and be over with before next morning. The
only real event, will be the meeting of the
teachers association and a large number
of the old graduate will be here to help
entertain them. Superintendent Fowler
v;will Veep open house New Year's day, and
the people of the town will give them sev
eral receptions, but none of these are Invi
tation affairs and everybody will go. .
But the very real things are those that
are talked of "under the hat," as It were.
'Many of these will be pulled off especially
, tor the stay-in-town-glrlB by the stay-in-;
town-boys. They will Include a bombard
mtnt of boarding houses, "frat" houses
and other houses and the entertainment
Will be of the strenuous and sometime
.'mysterious kind. Among the paraphernalia
Is a pig, which is to be greased and then
turned lonne In a frat house, a prize to b
, given to the one who catches him, and
things awful to happen to the one who falls
Wo try. Several side degrees will be given
aspirants for club honors, and so far one
ef these Is sufficients to make th hair
land on end like unto "the quills of a fret
ful porcupine." But all these things are
Wing arranged with the female end male
teacher as the victim. In fact. It Is a jolly
good crowd, left here In dear old Lincoln,
nuarred only by the presence of a few
co-eds and a few bipeds who spend each
fleeting hour pouring over . some stuffy
schoclbook, appasently digging with their

NETW YORK. rxc W. "If madam wishes
to do th correct, thing sh will bo English"
and have her evening gown decollette," said
the modiste insinuatingly.
Whether or not the American woman
Is really more becoming when an
glicised, the present season shows a marked
following after English fashions in dress.
Decollette gown are being worn after
o'clock by women of all ages. Not only at
large and small private dinners and at the
theater, but even In the fashionable res
taurants with the evening lamps come the
gleam of snowy shoulders. It makes work
for the masseuse, but the American girl
has long been noted for the spirited poise
of her head and the splendid breadth of her
shoulders. Art need do little to assist her.
Even those whom time has robbed of
graceful curves disdain to cover their
shoulders with anything more substantial
than a piece of filmy laoe. Laos has won
derful softening properties. Hence, Its
lavish use In evening gowns has resulted
In the most graceful models that have ap
peared for years.
The evening- gowns are almost univer
sally of laoe, chiffon, or some Other gauxy
material. Where silk Is used It appears
merely as the foundation for elaborate ap
pliques of laos or for transparent chiffon
veils. The effect Is dainty and doe much
to reconcile th masculln mind to th sis
of th modlst' "bills.
, ' . Whit a Favorite Color.
White Is stIU the favorite color, although
th woman who alms at individuality Is
turning; to other colors. An occasional vivid
touch la effective among the snowy masses.
A rose pink chiffon Is a mass of pllsse
chiffon and Irish lace. The latter might
seem a trifle heavy on so delicate a fabric,
but taste has now been educated to the
point when no lace can be too heavy for
dress trimmings. The lace doe not prevent
this particular gown from being light and
fluffy. It Is cut off the shoulders. In fact,
it seems as If only careful fitting keeps It
from dropping- off the shoulders. Much Of
this effect Is produced by the bertha and
the trailing hlffon wings, which ornament
the sleeves. The skirt has a shaped yoke
of alternate tucking and lace insertion,
which extends down In a deep point almost
to the knee. The lower part of the skirt
shows perpendicular line of crochet edged
with pllsse chiffon ruffles. Several double
chifon nifties are posed on the silk under
skirt to give a bouffant effect at the skirt
edge.
The bodice Is ot tucked chiffon. It Is
caught Into a deep pointed girdle of rose
satin, . fitted to the figure and boned, and
ornamented In front by two medallions of
old silver. Their setting of .delicate pink
ooral matches perfectly th tint of the
dresa, The bertha, which finishes the top
of the corsage, is made of medallions of
crochet and lace, edged svtth th pilose
chiffon, ' , ..
Faff Sleeves the Thtas;.
The short puff sleeves are edged with
lace. The sleeve Is the distinctive feature
of th dress. -
This Is the case with most of the even
ing towns. It la the result of the erase
for long shoulder effects. Th trimming
Is pushed further , and further off the
L shoulders till the bottom of the sleeve be
comes a mass of ruffles, puffs and Coating
angel wings.
Big puffs of chiffon, or some other dia
phanous material, are often caught into
a tight and slender cuff, which accentu
ates the slenderness of the wrist, while
the transparent puff gives grace even to
an angular arm. -
Such a sleeve arrangement appears In
a princess gown of white satin brocade
trimmed with an appllqued design in un
cut velvet. ' Princess gowns must of ne
cessity be fashioned in something more
substantial than chiffon. They have the
additional limitation' of being- most try
ing to wear. The woman . who has an
Indifferent figure must dschew the prin
cess style, but her more fortunate sisters
are recognising its possibilities for graoe
and beauty.
The princess gown In question Is worn
on a svelte figure with sylph-like effect.
An extreme straight front effect is achieved
By the perfection ot the cut. It Is cut off
the shoulders and finished by a tight-fit
ting bolero of ohlne ribbon. The ribbon is
laid In folds and edged with the uncut vel
vet medallions. The bolero Is finished at
the bust by soft loops of the ribbon held
tn place by a Jeweled butterfly set with
brilliants. -Whore the ,real stone are Im

so clever that It would take the eye of
an expert to detect the ruse. Sham Jewels

sides the stage.
t Skirts Loaar aad Close- Flttlasr.
Th skirt is long and tight-fitting, Be
sides tha uncut velvet medallions, the
bottom hem is also garnished with ribbon
loops and ends pendant from the ribbon
rosettes, which are set at Intervals along
the medallions.
The same ribbon ornaments bans' from
the elbow sleeves of the chine ribbon,
down over the chiffon wrist puffs.
Tet even after so regal a gown, it is
rather a relief to goSack once more to the
aerial ' chiffons and the dainty mouaoe
Unes. Embroidered moussellnes are in Ugh
favor.
A tucked moussellne da sole has some
thing quaintly attractive about Its style,
but Its' materials are bewllderingly modern.
The moi-asellne Is tn oie of the vivid new
pink shades, elaborately embroidered with
silver bullion threads, while the lace band
ings, which are so lavishly used for a
trimming, have the .pattern picked out with
black chenille. Th effect Is somewhat
startling and yet It has the undoubted sanc
tion of good taste.
The decollette bodice Is encrusted with the
lece in s lonenge pattern, and finished by
several simple folds of th chiffon. Th
elbow sleeves end In double chiffon ruffles.
The tight-fitting skirt yoke extend almost
to the knees. The losenge pattern Is again
repeated by a skilful use of the laoe band
ings. Below the yoke the skirt Is a tnss
of tiny lace ruffles, each laid over a chlf
foo ruffle, without overlapping. The ef
fect, Is, delightfully fluffy, especially where
the skirt lengthens to a train. A dainty
finish Is given at the waist Una by a belt of
folded chiffon, whose long ende are trimmed
with chlfSn rosettes. ,
paaarlee for Kraulns Oowas.
The glint of silver or gold Is common
on the evening gowns. More often tt Is of
fered by spangled dots or dew drops, which
give forth opalescent tints with every
movement of the w oarer.
The newer weaves of veu-el are so light
that they have loot-the' cumbersome effect
which onoe marked a velvet gown.. While
not yet a rival of chiffon, they are prac
ticable for even ball gowns.
An elaborate dinner eswo. is of this Uht
weight velvet In a rich cream tint It fur
nJko a chrmlriT foundation for the en-
ornamented. The corsage, which buttons
In the bark, has a bertha of lace and
droops slightly Into a deep French curved
belt The rather loose sleeve come only
to the elbow, and are finished with grad
uated ruffles of lace. The skirt Is circular
In effect with Insertion ot lac forming a
yoke and simulating flounces. Very wide
Insertions form a veritable circular flounce
at the bottom. A broad sash of chiffon Is
knotted at the back and falls with long
ends to the skirt hem.

THE TIME T0 THAW OUT

Her Is a sermon suited to the season
delivered by the Milwaukee Journal:
The season Is here when we are supposed
to thaw out ,
Tou will buy skates for thef boy (which
he cried for a month ago), maybe a set
of fur for the wife (who has needed them
Ave years), a dollar pipe for a friend, who
you know will give you a dollar's worth
of something in honest exchange; and this
you call Christmas giving. Tou think you
have properly thawed out
But you haven't. No; bless you; the ge
nial warmth of the true Christmas spirit
hasn't thawed even the frost rime on your
heart
If you want to hav. the satisfaction of
realizing- what It means to thaw out clear
through, and yet cannot separate the
Christmas Idea from money, turn your
pocketbook over to your wife for the next
two weeks. ' Make a mighty sacrifice for
Just the once.
It may enable her to have the happiest
Christmas she has had since she married
you. And you If you won't learn how to
give may at least learn how to receive.
Tou would have done It once. There was
a time when love for her mellowed your
heart, and yon wished you had the whole
world to lay at her feet Tou said a lot of
such nonsense, and meant it. Tou have
forgotten, but she hasn't A woman never
forgets such things..
She has observed, of course, that the lit
tle portion of the world which you have
managed to make your own is not lying
at her feet, but is Jammed Into your own
pocket, with your hand always on It
It's, yours, you think Just ss she Is,
Possession makes a big difference
True, you're a rood fellow. Tou mean
well, but you mean Va be the main thing
you jfelf don't you?
' If any man were to tell you that you act
the brute and the bully toward the pa
tient woman who has brought you nine
tenths of your Joys and shared all your
sorrows, and whom you love next to your
money, you would get fierce about It
But In strict confidence now, between
you and your conscience, don't you swell
up to think that you're the boas, that a
look from you la a command to her, that
she must beg of you piecemeal for what
you promised to lay at her feet? Tou know
you don't treat her as well as you did the
day sh was your bride. Tou lied to her.
Tou're a bully toward her every day. Tou
don't do a tenth for her that you ought to.
And If you're any man at all, you know It
She asks you now for money to get
Christmas gifts for' th children ask you
apologetically, as sh must, and maybe,
after long- watting to catch you in good
humor.
Tou grouch and growl and sneers "Mufeh
good, did these knick-knacks ever do any
body!" Tou forget your own. childhood; yes, you
forget your manhood, too.
. Tou give her something, ' of course
you're a good, fellow but the thins; you
give her is one pari money and nine parts
heartache, .1
.And you think you've thawed out
Of course, you know your own business.
Tou want nobody to tell you how much
you can spare to your wife for Christmas
gifts. Tee, you know how much you can
spare that's the point sh has nothing to
say about It It's aU yours yours; so la
he.
"Tes, you know your own business. Tou
have expenses to b met; you have debts
to be paid, and there is little money left
That' good buslnesa gense. But don't for
get that your biggest debt 'is td the pa
tient woman who has consigned to you all
of course. But make her a preferred cred
itor. Integrity It begins In justice to her,
that is nearest to your happiness and has
trested you far beyond your rating in Brad
street's or anywhere else. Pay your debts,
True, you have given her a nice home;
you dress, her good enough; you provide
well for her yes, you treat her as well
as you do your horse. But do you think
shs ought to be content with thatf Don't
you know she has a soul that needs nour
Ichment? 1
Be sordid and tyrannical and grumpy
toward her all the rest of the year. If yeu
must, but for the next two weeks thaw
out that muscular pump In your left breast
and see If It Is still a heart
See If a little kindness and affection and
self-denial can flow from Iti
Be a bridegroom to her again for a llttl
while.
See If you can't bring the almost for
gotten blush of happiness' back into her
cheeks and the old light into her eyes and
th old laugh to her lips.
. Tou have grubbed and scraped together
a lot ot trash that you call your fortune,
but do .not enjoy. Tou know in your heart
that the glint and glitter of success holds
nothing for you half so sweet as the sim
ple happiness of th honeymoon, when you
had nothing- but her and she had nothing
but you and your promises, that you
haven't made good.
Fill you" pocketbook full of that trash
you have sweat for and sacrificed her for,
give tt to her to buy Christmas gifts and
learn for the first time what It is an gnoa
for. '
