THE L SYSTEM College and High School Week

/\titumn is the "shed-ding" season. As the trees

shed their leaves—as the feathered song­

ster sheds its autumnal plumage so does the youth

of the land cast aside the raiment of Summer for

the new modes of Fall,

Tomorrow will be the opening day of College and High School Week—a seven-day exhibition of the apparel of Fall which will set every young fellow's

heart beating faster, and start an exhilarating rush

of blood through his veins.
