STUDENT EDITORS WOE
Because a certain joko in the "Girls'
DCumber" ot the Central High School
Tteglster suggested kissing by a promi
nent senior boy and girl, and because
pi oof sheets of tho paper had not been
ircsented to a committee of the faculty
o bo censored, Principal Kato A. Mo
Iugh ordered tho whole edition held out
rom circulation when it came off tho
jirtss Wednesday. After an Investiga
tion of tho matter, she has now directed
that it' bo withheld from circulation un
til, next Tuesday, and the students ro

The Joko consisted of using geometrical
figures to represent two faces, the prob.

Nothing could bo more charming
for a young girl than the simple stylo
of this dainty frock. It la of soft white
satin, slightly draped In tho popular
pannier mode. Tho liny tunic Is of
tulle, well aired out, whllo the cordage
Is of the same, outlined with lmssa-menterle.
CORSAGE A LA GRKQUE.
Tho Mmplc fashion ot tho corsage,
finishing at tho shoulder without any
Meevo, reminds ono again of tho prom
ised return to tho style of the woman
ot nuclent Greece. Tho solo trimming
of this gow n which Is of plain white
Satin, consists of bands ot muny
strings of pearls.
A PANNIER EXAMPLE.
Tho costly material used for this
toilette 1h a rluh pearly white satin
with broclie sprays In gold. It la so
effertho us to require, no decoration,
tho dccallotago merely being softened
with folds of inousspllno do sole. A
deeply scalloped lact petticoat Is worn
under the pannier pimped skirt.
