EDITOR EVENING CAITAL In your
Navy News of last evenings issue of the
CAPITAL, reference was made to the en-
listed men of the Navy who serve on
shore stations, and the Naval Academy,
as having soft, easy billets, ETC." Will
you permit me to say in justice to the
enlisted force at the Naval Academy,
that there is not word of truth in it.
There must be men at the shore stations,
and as great many of them are old
veterans of war, who have had lots of
sea service, without steam heaters and
other modern appliances to keep them
comfortable while they were at it, any
man whose conscience was not anywhere
but at the point of his pencil, would have
refrained from making so general and
unjust statements with regard to them,
rs did the Washington correspondent of
the Baltimore San, from which your re-
marks we're taken.

Ladies' Fancy waists for Early spring.

waists wholly Independent of the skirt
the problem of economical dressing be-
comes susceptible of any easy solution
this season. The same skirt can be made
TO serve more than one purpose, and ON
the other hand, the bodice not being COM
PEELED to conform in style TO the latter,
may be put to several uses. This dis
tinction between the two parts of the
costume is greatly facilitated by the new
materials. Thus, the highly ar is tic
broche crepon of latest importations is
admirably suited to skirts both stylish
in appearance and practical for every
day wear. The Mcdowell Fashion Mag
azines contain many designs of new mod
els of bodices as well as skirts, which
render them unusually attractive this
