.Delta Sigma Pi and Phi Sigma Delta

Waggoner. Bill Marshall and his or-
* chestra will furnish the music.
The traditional Homecoming dance
at the Acacia house is being planned
by James Lientz, '36E and Willis
Player, '37. This party will also be
informal and closed.
Fancy Materials Are Popular
Quilted satin, organdy, and velve-
teen, are of course less durable than
the other pillows, but are very pretty
for the dainty room. Velveteen pillows
are especially decorative in small
squares, on which Scotty dogs and ter-
riers are sewn in bright mosaic work.
A pleasing feature about pillows this
year is that the majority of them are
not in thie conventional square, round,
or rectangular shapes, but in most
cases are in the form of elephants,
horses, dogs, and innumerable kinds
of dolls.
For the studio or den, some very
appropriate pillows are those of Chi-
nese print. They are made of genuine
imported Chinese silk and are em-
broidered with gold thread. The de-
signs consist of Chinese pagodas,

.. no, it's not a Zoo Directory,
it's the furs on the new coats at
the Marilyn Shop. The material
is called "Tree-Box," just an out-
of-doors touch, you know. They're
all pure silk lined and very warm-
ly interlined (A very important
feature for this North-pole-equa-
tor weather). They come, of
course, in the best fall shades:
blue, brown, and black and, the
sum total of this- enumeration, the
price is only $25.

the other day and found just that

nocent red leather case with a
bottle of oily remover and, polish

presto, it's a cigaret case . . . al

Then there are two larger kits one
in black satin and the other in
pin-seal leather which are just as
complete as they come.
