Xl Ml! X T X X If - 2, LET FLOWERS DICTATE fFor Men Onlyj To you, boys, who are swing-conscious, graduation doesn't mean diplomas, it means Reception. Reception represents many things: soft lights, hot music, and on this occasion not any sweet young thing, but the girl of the hour. If you want to be sure your feel- ings are partially reciprocated, don't fail to brighten her gown with a corsage. To the average male, a corsage is just a small, flat-looking bouquet of flowers tied with tinsel or cellophane, and ribbons. But you don't want to be ordinary on such an important occasion. To remove any such impression you must deal with the situation with the skill of a connoisseur. The flowers which you select will prove your true worth. The most important essential in this cor- sage business is to contrast the flowers with the dress. In case of necessity, you can be- come a Sherlock Holmes. Her friend, or even a friend of a friend, can easily inform you of the exact color. Beware! Don't rely on brothers or male cousins. They haven't the feminine eye for color and detail. Un- less they are artistically inclined, turquoise- blue will look green to them, or the new thistle shade will be just pink. The color question once solved, you will know your limitations and may proceed with caution or gusto. Roses are an old standby, gardenias are fashionable, but oh, so un- original, and nowadays, next to good taste, Hllzfvl LKTJ N it's originality that counts. At this point you may be grateful to the Greeks for their in- vention of floriography. Any girl with a sense of humor cannot fail to appreciate your at- tempt at novelty while indulging in the language of flowers. Rest assured that such a girl will not feel ruffled at receiving a cor- sage of nutmeg geraniums fif she can recog- nize them as suchj, for do they not mean an expected meeting? Even the pale little bach- elorls-button means hope in love, which cer- tainly is a compliment to any young 'teener. Never, never send white roses if you wish to prolong a courtship! No girl can be flattered by a statement of dead love. You must choose wisely. Select the flowers to match her per- sonality. If she is Highty, then it's butterfly- orchids for gaiety. If she's pining for some- one else-the cranberry blossom means a cure for heartache, if she's shy-the four o'clock means timidity. In case she has a great sense of humor, then it's harlequin for one who laughs much. Should you not be able to re- sist her, and donlt know why, the satin-flow- er means fascination. If she is a gold-digger, and you know it, and she knows you know it, then possibly she won't take offense at re- ceiving auricula, which simply means- wealth is not always happiness. Having decided upon the kind of flowers, the style in which they are arranged is next to be considered. The florists, who are ex- perts in corsage make-up, can suggest various forms-should you take the pains to consult
