HAPPY TO YOU Don't SIMPLICITY MARKS DEBUTANTE'S GOWN am#,----- Although these peace times tend to bring back freak styles, the frocks and wraps of the young debutante continue to be exquisitively simple. There is nothing which so emphasizes the beauty of youth as absolute and even severe simplicity. Contrary to the belief of many persons, the gar ment of studied simplicity is much more costly than the freakishly draped and ornamental garment. The reason is that it takes ornamentation to cov er up defects in material or workman ship, poor quality of fabric and tailor ing. Pictured is a charmingly simple frock for the winter's debutante. Navy brocaded talfeta combined with chiffon is the combination. The skirt shows a slight draping near the hem and there are two side panels which have interesting inserts of shirred chiffon. Shirring trims the blouse also and the square neck and long bell-shaped sleeves are pleasing fea tures. A very large bow of the bro caded taffeta with a. tiny cluster of satin flowers in the center makes an important effective trimming. A delightful New Year's festivity was enjoyed last evening at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Kane on the univer sity campus, when the members of the faculty assembled as the guests of the president and his wife.
