STYLES HAVE CHANGED FROM 1889 TO 1939
BUT COLLEGE GIRLS HAVE SAME PROBLEMS
In 18897 girls at Baylor Female College were hampered by their voluminous skirls the ir three petticoats
and their tophcay hairdress as attested by the group In the center Today students at Mary
HardinBaylor College present a different picture with their abbreviated skirts sweaters and socks except
when they don longskirted evening frocks and pile their tresses on their heads adding charm and
dignity in striking contrast to their efficient daytime costumes BUT basically their joys trials and tribulations
are remarkably similar if the four letters written in 1889 and recently given to the Alumnae
Association can be depended on for a true picture of the life of a college girl 50 years ago
Modern Etiquette
BY ROBERTA LEE
1 Is it absolutely required that
a person give the reason for declining
an invitation
2 Is it proper for a man to
standing or seated talking with
a man and drops her handkerchief
glove or some such article
and the man does not notice it
should she pick it up
5 When the guests at a dinner
are few in number and they are
all intimate friends would it be
all right for the place card to
bear only their first names Mary
Elizabeth Helen etc

New Cotton Strain
AUSTIN In an effort to transform
sections of the Southwest

way of largescale production in
that section Dr G W Goldsmith

At present the cotton being
raised in the Texas Panhandle is
the same as that planted in the
lowlands
Dr Goldsmith is conducting ex
experiments
