Sister Peggy Goes Visiting
PEGGY, Fashion Fanny's college sister, had in
tended to spend the week-end at home, but
when her roommate invited her to her
aunt’s country place she put off her home visit for
another week, even though she did want to see her
little sister and her mother ever so much.
Peggy was glad, indeed, that she had a new
dance frock, for probably they would spend Sat
urday evening at the Country club. The dress
was a very pretty affair of orchid colored chiffon,
trimmed with a frilled cream lace.
Besides the dance frock she took with her a
new three-piece costume which consisted of a
cape and a dress. The cape and the pleated sides
of the dress were of a bright green, yellow and
black printed silk, while the rest of the costume
was of a plain green. Yellow roses trimmed the
green hat which she wore with it.
