hats faintly resembling ice bags lined
with street cleaners in sparkling white

ly boredom.
The bloomer girls made their ap-
pearance in black gym bloomers and
middy blouses with yellow ties. Con-
sternation ran through, The ranks +as
they discovered that true to gymnas-
ium suit style, the costumes were all
the same size and the shorter mem-
bers of the group were forced to
keep their bloomers from dragging
while the more fortunate were the
taller girls who posed in fitted ease.
Brilliant plaids and checks recalled
early twentieth century days in men's
styles as the male members of the
cast were photographed in complete
costume even to their tiny moustaches
and felt fedoras.
Feminity and sweetness were seen
in the girl's costumes with their
modest long skirts'which completed
the array making the second floor,
look like a walking edition of "Oh
boy, oh what fun! Way back in
1901."
First public appearance of these
characters and costumes will be at
