the casual observer the useful article
might seem more of a nuisance than
anything else, but it is the kind Of
one that is carried about from pillar to
post and is duplicated year after year.
Another homely convenience is the
shoe bag Not the one that hangs on
the closet door and that serves as
sort OF free grab-bag, but the one that
is used exclusively in trunks and that
saves all the fuss and feather of hunt
ing about the house for a piece Of

washes time after time and is never
the worse for wear. It need not neces-
sarily be plain or have an ugly red bor-
der about it, for these days 1t comes in
blue and white checks or in the red
and white, and there is enough variety
In the sizes to suit even the most fas-
tidious.
The best and easiest way to do is to
measure your own shoes and use them
as a guide. Remember that the ma
terial must be doubled to resemble a
bag or else the boots would drop out.
Fold the material over twice and then
count on about a third of the length for

curely in place Generally the flap is
about five or six inches long and may
be square or pointed to suit the fancy
Of the maker.
That makes a suitable bag, so 1t
should be stitched down the very CEN
ter, dividing it into two equal parts.
Even after each shoe is buttoned in it's
own little house, the effect is not good
and they take up altogether too much
room, so piece OF tape is sewed firmly

HCET how To make the beSt ap-
peArance for the least money Is
the all beSetting question about
O. two weeks before the 25th day OF
december. and II you have solved the
proposition Of making $40 take the
place OF $40. you are about one Of the
luckiest individuals on the face Of the
earth
1t really isn't so awfully difficult after
ali II you only possess the mystic COM
bination- The article that costs 81 50
in a shop may be fashioned every bit
as well at home for one-third the
sum, and who Is to knOA OF care, for
that matter. the exact money value?
One OF the prettiest home gifts is a
fan Not the wee spangled affair that
Is 50 much used ia the evenings, but
a fair sized white one decorated with
pen and ink sketches that may be
placed on the wall instead Of a pic
ture.
II you have even the smallest amount
Of ingenuity you may make a success
Of II, and while the drawing may seem
like q small mountain. it can be traced
on in a moment and readily redrawn
with ink In almost any shop the fan
may be purchased for half dollar, for
II is the plainest Of the plain, in fact,
the sitter and whittier the better for the
work stands out in sharp contrast.
The one expense consists of a cord
and tassel, for it may or may not come
with the fan, but, at most, ii costs q
paltry sum and is always well worth
the amount, for ii dresses the pretty
trinket up not a little.
One Of the most convenient trif1es for
the girl who travels is a pin scrap.
Not the plain, ordinary pin cushion
that is a catchall for everything, but
instead dainty little affair that may
be tucked away into a corner Of the
trunk or pinned on the bureau where
It may be easily gotten at.
And one OF the beauties about IL is
the trifing cost. There Is scarcely a
house that does not contain a scrap
bag and there is scarcely a scrap bag
that does not contain a piece OF elder
down twelve inches square. For that is
the main part OF it. There is, OF course,
an outside ribbon, but as it may be
any color, there generally is not much
difficulty in finding that part OF 1t. Silk
or satin VIII do quite as well for that
matter, and while it is prettiest when
made OF a baby blue or a rosy pink
Il is not half as serviceable and after
a few months viii look as though it
had come out Of the ark itself.
The making is so simple that any
child could put it together without the
slightest difficulty.
An interlining OF cheese cloth and
gprinkled lavishly with sachet powder
Is nice. but il is not necessary and
runs the expense up quite little But
either with or without It the making
Is quite the same. The silk is turned
In ali around the four corners, and so
is the eiderdown, but the finishing
touches are quite different. The outer
cover is firmly caught down with a
feather stitch, that try as hard as you
may, Will show through a little on the
opposite side. Then to overcome that
part OF It, ribbon the color Of the elder
down and about a half inch in width
is put on in a blind fashion and the
pretty bauble is nearly completed.
That leaves it perfectly square, OF
oblong II you have chanced to make II
that shape. and there is nothing to hold

- p more popular OF course. the
naodkerchief must have q plain bor-
uer, but there may be all sorts Of
monograms and raised work In the
corners and about the border; in fact,
tne mora~th prettier and the more
elaborate the cover.
When they are cut In two and the In
sertion Is added, 1t takes but two fair
sized ones. but when the linen Is used
oy itself and they are made plenty fun
II takes three. The shoulder straps
depend entirely upon the whim Of the
maker. A piece Of insertion bound with
lace on two sides Is fury and pretty,
ana 1t washes well. but ribbon adds a
Dash OF color and is infinitely less work
to put on the first time, and the maker,
as q rule, troubles her head but little
about the numerous times the ribbon
VIII have to be ripped of and sewed on
again when 1t goes to the laundry.
For the girl that does a good deal OF
needlework there Is the handy apron.
Not the regulation white affair that is
used to protect the gown from threads
and the like, but a useful little thing
that is intended to look dashing and
yet be useful at the same time
It Is made OF any material that is
soft and pretty, but those made OF a
nowered dimlty are more attractive

nothing remains to do but belt II with
a bit of beading. both top and bottom

The alumni and friends of Wake Forest

raise the necessary sum to build the
Alumni Building this year. fine begin
ming was made commencement day when
in few minutes $6,6S5 was raised from
those present. at the exercises. Prof.
Carlyle had charge OF the collection and
showed that he was master hand at
raising money from a crowd. For some
years Wake Forest made no appeal to
the Baptist hosts and other friends of
education for that institution, giving the
whole field to the newly established Bap
fist Female University. Now that the
baby Is old enough to walk alone, Wake
Forest is asking to have new buildings to
keep pace with the growth of the college.
Below we print the roll of those who
gave to the new alumni building. 1t is
roll of honor. 1t is hoped that, without
wsiting to be called on, many others will

WILL He DECLINE IT?
]. F. CorreII and the Assist
ant Sanitary Office.
Rumor Has Il that ConeII viii Not Accept But
Remain with Lee and
Broughton.

And now there is report of another
declination.
This time it is that Mr. Joseph f. Cor
rell, recently elected as Assistant City
Sanitary Inspector, will not accept.
The rumor is one that has not yet been
widely scattered, and it is also stated that
theer is a reason why the matter has not
been given out.
1t is understood that Mr.. Correll, who
has charge of the grocery business of Lee
& Broughton, has been urged by the firm
not to give up his present position, and
that in order to induce him to stay hli
salary has been increased above that of
the position with the city government.
The reason stated that the contemplated
declination has not been given publicity is
that the Board of Aldermen do not desire
to be made the football holder of the POI
sition with a centre rush of applicants
after it.
It was impossible to confirm this rumor
last night, but the matter was discussed
by number of gentlemen From these
it is understood that Mr. Correl had not
positively declined, but that the indica-
tons were that he would not accept the
position held by Mr.. James Jordan until
he was defeated for reelection.
Some decision will be reached this week,
it is judged, as the Aldermen meet on Fri
day night, and if Mr.. Correll does resign
the board viii do some more balloting and
elect some one to the position At this
meeting the matter of keeper for Oak

Moody Talks of Naval Affairs.
(By the Associated Press

CBy the Associated Press.)
Washington, June 2.-Secretary Moody
returned to Washington today from his
trip through the West The Secretary
says President Roosevelt is enjoying his
trip thoroughly and is enthusiastically re-
ceived everywhere. Secretary Moody says
the President in a number of his speeches
has aimed TO create sentiment in favor
of a larger navy, notably in the interior
of the country, where the people do not
have the opportunity to see Warships.
Secretary Moody himself is anxious there
shall be no retrogression in our naval
progress, but believes matters Of detail as
to our warships, class, type, etc, should
be determined by the committee of Con-
gross with the assistance of the expert
advice of the chiefs of bureaus and others
familiar with the naval construction and
the needs of the navy
Secretary Moody declined to say wheth-
er he would recommend construction of
five battleships by the next session of
Congress, an inference deduced in some
quarters as a result of his speech at Salt
Lake City Nor was he prepared to say
whether the administration had in contem
plation a general naval program with a
view to the construction Of five such ships
year.
The Secretary said tonight that recruit
ing in the navy will be continued.
