DAILY CAPITAL JOURNAL, SAL8M OWSOON SATURDAY, MAY-21, 1004. NINE NEW YORK FASHION LETTER Now York, May 21. Tho summer Is drawing near ami with It tho time of June weddings and graduating ex ercises. To the average girl tho thought of Che 'coming examinations with their puzzling questions and dreadful pitfalls; does not cause half so much worry and anxiety as tho question concerning the dress she is going to wear at tho customary com jnoncement exercises. It Is undoubt edly an Import-ant event in tho life of a girl, when alio graduates from school, after having for years worked hard at her studios to fit herself for her future career, whatever that may be. Graduation may only moan the first milestone in hor educational ad vance, or It may mark tho finale of her theoretical schooling, the begin ning of a practical course, with all hardships and disappointments of such a course, be It tho lifo of a work ing woman, or a life of domestic drudgery at homo.

The Hne3 of the graduating dresses shpuld bo simple and graceful and their overloading with frills, flounces etc., should be carofully avoided. However, there Is ample room for elaboration of details to produce any variety of effects from the plainest and most severe to the frivolously ornamental. Princess effects aro very pretty and will be used a great deal this year. Graduated tucks aro quite suitable for ornamenting the skirts. The waist will In most cases bo made with a deep yoke and, perhaps, with a bertha falling over tho sleeves. There will be a great variety of sleeves, from the full top sleeve, with close fitting long cuffs of lace or transparent material, to the short elbow sleeyes, with frills at the lower end.

It Is undeniably an appropriate cus tom. There Is nothing more beflttlngN youthful feminine charms, nothinc sweeter to look at than a girl dressed In white. Youth hath charms of Its own and needs not goms or rich op naments to make itself felt. Even the plainest glri looks pretty in a whito dress if It fits her well and for handsome girls no better foil could be devised than tho simplicity and delightful unobtrusivoness of a white frock. it lends an indescribable charm to the graceful lines and bud ding forms of the sweet graduating Sirl. Although the custom of selecting white materials for graduating dress es prevails as over, Dame Fashion has her say as to the materials, tho cut and tho trimmings of tho cos tumes. Fortunately for a great many Slrls who are not daughters of mil lionaires, fashion allows considerable freedom In the selection of materials so long as they are white and are cut ior graduating dresses. , Fabrics of every description, from tho cheapest to tho most expensive may be used, and trimmed In tho approved style. Judging from the general stylo of dresses In vogue at tho present time graduating dresses will be unusually handsome and charming this year. And the simpler materials which will be used for such dresses are batiste and mulles of various degrees of flnoness and oxpenslveness. India linens, Persian lawns, Swiss and or gandy will also And many admirers. U may be said, however, that tho softer materials, like batisto and mulle are preferable, as thev lend themselves better than the atlffer ma terlals to producing those soft and graceful effocts so characteristic of present styles. Tho question of trimmings and or namentations is a very Important ono ltn graduating dresses. It Is la tho trimmings and ornaments that tho bulk of the expenso is. Hand em broideries and ornamental stitching June brides are confronted with tho delightful task of planning tholr wedding dresses. White, either pure white or of somo delicate and scarcely noticeable tint, Is, just as over, the proper thing for wedding dresses. But white Is not white by any means, when It comes to maklng'tho most ap propriate selection for tho bride. Great care Should bo exorcised in the selection, as tho beautyof tho general effect of the bridal costume depends upon It. Roso and Ivory tints aro suitable for the brunette, while the exquisite sliver, pearl or the new oyster shades are more for tho blonde, Another feature which de serves careful consideration Is tho material best suited to fho figure of the bride. Of course, in many cases the quostlon of expenso Is the para mount issue and cannot be overcome, but under more favorable conditions duo attention should bo given to that matter. Tho soft, clinging effects of some materials' are more' becoming to certain figures, that would appear awkward and crushed If surrounded with tho stiff and unyielding folds of satin. Ampng tho walking hats that will bo worn this year the sailor will hold a rather prominent position. It is simple, can be made as expensive or as inexpensive as tho taste or purse of the wearer Justify, and, in most cases, Is quite becoming, especially In connection with chic summer cos tumes. Tho season's sailor will be broaderfrom side to side than from back to front, with an oval crown. To accentuate this effect the sailor hat will be trimmed from side to side with a flat ruchlng of ribbon which runs in front of tho crown and Is finished close to the edgo of tho brim on. eltbej side with neatly cllppod Tho ruchlng is usually made from throo or four Inch ribbon and should match the color of tho walking suit with which It is to bo worn. Fine and coarse straws In various colors are shown In shops and some of them aro unusually attractive. ESTELLH CLAIREMONT.
