The queen's gown, eacli year a robe lovely eiy>ugh to conjure with, bore out it's traditional charm. It Was fashioned of white crepe without a suggestion of a halt, ever silver lace. A Persian pattern of crystals covered the entire gown, with four rows of inch-wide crystal fringe completing the design on the skirt. The hemline, cut IS inches from the floor, was finished with a six inch fringe of rhinestones and crystals, through which gleamed silken ankles, silver clad. At the right side of the gown a long fringe of crystal and brilliants, drip ped dewily from a low waistline and on the left uncurled white ostrich, each filmy feathered frond Sipped with a rhinestone, cascaded from hip to hem. The neckline was cut low and round back and front. The straight coronet of rhinestones set in silver, with Its six-inch dia dem in front, sparkled over fjusen Emma s glowing eyes. The necklace, with Its pendant and the two brace lets, set off hrr neck and arras. Miss Hoagland wore the traditional court train of silver oloth hoardered in sequins, and lined with satin, which Mrs. Willard Millard wore for the first time three years ago, and in which Miss Gertrude Stout and Miss Eleanor Barkley have since appeared. It has great dignity and grace cut with a V neck and fastened on the straight shoulders of the graceful queen, with silver cords. Slippers of silver brocade and rhlne stone buckles completed the royal ensemble. After the ball. Miss Hoagland and her escort, John Reed, were guests of Miss Josephine Schurmnn at sapper at the Omaha club, where Miss Hoag lnnd's sister, Helen, and Mr. Elliott were honor guests. r > Burgess Bedtime Stories V-/ A e*ntlemar'<i a aentleman In every t(me and plan* Ha •hnvs It hv th* way ha ants, Whatever he must fare —Jimmy Skunk. A Perfect Gentleman. Jimmy Skunk is nothing if not a gentleman. Of course, h* had been provoked when he was caught in that box trap of Farmer Brown’s Bov. He had been still more provoked when he had been dropped out of it into a barrel. He felt that he had been treated very rudely. But there had been no one on whom to use that lit tle scent (run of his, and so he hadn't used it. It didn't take him more than a minute to find out that he was just as much a prisoner in that, barrel as he had been in the box trap. Tou see, he couldn't climb up the sides of the barrel. Now, Jimmy Is a philosopher as well as a Rentleman. A philosopher is one who believes in making the best of I / / m - “A little gentleman, if there ever was one," said Farmer Brown's Boy as he watched Jimmy. things as they are. Jimmy couldn't get. out of that barrel, but he could curl up for a nap. So that is what he did. He was left undisturbed for quite a.while, and so it happened that he was asleep when Farmer Brown's Boy tiptoed up and threw a blanket over the top of that barrel. Then, taking care to keep the blanket over the top, Farmer Brown's Boy very gently picked up the barrel and car ried it outdoors. He carried it some distance away from the house and the barn. Then, ns gently as he had picked it up, he set it down. He went back to the barn and got a rake. Then he returned to the bar rel. He pulled off the blanket from over the top. Then with the rake he reached out and got hold of the edge of the barrel between the teeth of the rake. Slowly and carefully he pushed the barrel over and gradually let It down until it gently came to rest on Its side. Then Farmer Brown's Boy hastily backed away and waited. He didn't have to wait long. Jimmy had been wakened by the moving or the barrel! The Instant that barrel came to rest 'on Its side Jimmy saw that the way was clear for him to get out. He wasn't afraid to go out. He didn't run out of that harrel, as some of his more timid neighbors would have done. He walked out of that barrel slowly and In a dignified way. His big. plumey, black-and-white tall was held high, a sign that he was reaefy to use that little scent gun 01 his If there was cause to use it. Out side the barrel he stopped to look around No one was In sight but Farmer Brown's Boy, grinning at him a short distance away. Jimmy knew Farmer Brown's Boy. He knew him as a friend. He didn't know that Farmer Brown’s Boy had been the cauae of his recent troubles, hut he felt pretty sure that Farmer Brown's Boy had helped him out of those troubles. Jimmy lowered his big tail. Then, without hurrying in the least and act ing for all the world as If nothing un usual had happened, he walked away. A little way beyond the barrel he stopped, dug down into the grass roots, pulled out a white grub, ate it and calmly went on about his bus! ness. Could you have seen him you wouldn't have guessed that anything unusual had happened. "A little gentleman, if ever tnere was one.” said Farmer Brown's Boy. as he watched Jimmy. "I wonder if It was Jimmy who was under that porch all the time Instead of Unc* Billy Possum.” And to this day Farm re Brown s Boy doesn't know just how it happened that he caught Jimmy Skunk Instead of I nc' Billv Possum. ___________________________________ % forBfi*Mai t | "iht : et UEENS, being human, like candy.
