NEW BATH SHOES
High Strapped Boots Now Worn When
Swimming.

Swimming
Canvas lace and strap bathing boots,
that reach half way TO the knees, are
the latest novelty of the season added
10 the already complete 4st OF acces-
sorles, and are particularly popular with
women. because OF the support they af-
ford 10 the ankles. as well as for the
good background they make for wearing
elaborate hosiery.
Made in white, brown and black can
vas with a heavy hand sewed cork sole,
those new style boots are decidedly at
tractive looking. The edges OF the top
are prettily scalloped. and the nickel
buckles through which the straps pass
that hold the boot in place make the
fronts ornamental. II laces are used
instead of straps the boots are even
prettier, with red, blue or yellow silk
lacings zigzagged IN diamond shapes
across the front of the stockings.
These bathing boots are not lined and
as a result are not warm. and the fronts
are open except for the lacings or straps
that do not interfere with The freedom
Of the muscles In swimming while the
height acts as an ankle support.

Many women prefer braided soIe1ess

History in the Making.

Prof. J. A. James OF Northwestern
University recently announced to the
students In his American history class
that they would be expected to come
to the class room prepared to answer
questions on the news OF the day. In
the course of lecture he referred to
an article in morning paper and
upon questioning the members of the
class, found that only two OF them had
read the days newspaper. He there
upon made the announcement:
Hereafter shall expect you to have
an accurate knowledge OF current
events as chornIcled each day In the
newspapers. and / shall consider It
fully as important ms the daily lessons
assigned from the books
The plan thus announced by Profes-
sor James is one which Is followed by
many instructors of history. not only
in the colleges, but in secondary
schools as well. The news as con-
tained in the daily press dispatches Is
history in the making. What is his
tory to-day was once news and what
Is news to-day will soon pass into his
tory. Familiarity with events that oc-
CURED decades or centuries ago coup
led with ignorance of affairs that are
now shaping the destinies OF nations
and individuals is surely an absurdity.
What practical value can history
have unless from Il We may draw les
sons for the present. and how can such
lessons be drawn unless we are famil-
lar with events of the dayc-Colorado
