BRITISH FOOTWEAR

HIeH.PRlcED BRITISH FOOTWEAR
The very latest footwear for fash
ionable folk is certainly not lacking
in novelty. Recently there was ex-
hibited on Bond street a pair of shoes
made of the breast feathers of num-
ming birds. They were placed at $500,
record figure for shoes without dia-
mond or jewel settings.
In the same establishment were
shown bedroom slippers of silk bro
cade, trimmed with marabout feath-
ers, and these could be obtained for
the comparatively small sum of &7.
The cheapest boot in this shop is
priced at ga, while silk stockings are
sold at les. to G6 the pair. But you
cannot order single pairs here; the
first order for shoes must be for not
less than ten pairs, and with each pair
six Lairs of stockings to match are
upplied.-London Tit-Bits.

publicity bureau of the Reclamation Ser
vice, as it has been said of other like
bureaus, that 1t is used for the advance
ment of personal advertisement of any
man or men.
"Our method of distributing news is
somewhat different from that of other
branches of the government. We have
no mailing list at all; the newspaper cor
respondents who desire news come here
to get it, and it Is given to them freely
and openly. This also applies to the
magazine writer's. The bulletins and cir
cularS are distributed at our various sta
tions and lecture halls, and We consider
that the public gets just as much benefit
from such a method as II we had a large
mailing list with its accompanying ex-
penses. All queries that come I'm regard
ing the publications of the service. it's
work and the opportunities afforded in
the West. are answered. of course. but
there is no regular mailing list main-
tanned.
Il may say, in conclusion. that I con-
slider the publicity bureau a necessary
adjunct OF almost any branch of the
government. for the people have a right
to know what is going on therein. for it
is their money which is paying for 1t and
there cannot be too much light thrown
on the operations Of UEcle Sans big in
silence at Patent office.
In direct opposition to the opinion ex-
pressed by Mr.. Blanchard came the views
of Commissioner Moore. of the Patent
Office, for here the motto appeared to be
Silence, eternal and everlastingi' But.
as was soon pointed out. the operations
of the Patent Office are for the most
part secret and it is essential that they
be kept from the general public until
after the article Is patented, and then
the patentee takes care of the advertis-
ing himself. So this department needs no
press agent" and. indeed. the only ap-
parent publicity inan Is the secretary of
the Commissioner. whose principal occu-
patton appears to be to keep importunate
persons away from the ofice of the head
of the bureau and prevent news Of i'm
portant patents and work along similar
lines from leaking out before II is time for
II to be made public. Therefore. the big
gray structure at Ninth and F streets is
continually shrouded In pail of mist
and gloom. which somewhat oppresses
the visitor and makes him. think of the
secrets Of state Of tho Middle Ages.

Secrets of state.
Philip H. Patchin is chief of the
division Of strained information in the
State Department. This is not the exact
title of the office The adjective has
been supplied. Mr.. Patchin's office
overlooks the White Lot. 1t Is on the
third floor OF the beautiful Renaissance
pile Of the State, War, and Navy Build
ing, on the same floor with Secretary
Knox and Assistant Secretary Hunting
ton Wilson. .

In ordinary times During the Early
days of the Mexican troubles they came

them sometimes, but rarely. Usually
Mr.. Wilson was the mouthpiece of the
department. Mr.. Patchin sometimes
sits In the background. After Mr.. Will
son has told the boys all he knows
he hands each of them a carbon copy
of just how the news should read.
These carbon copies come from. the Of
fice of tile division of information. Mr..
Patchin is the division. Mr.. Wilson is

The position Is one of the most de.

Department. It's occupant is one of the
most popular men in Washington. His
newspaper experience was wide. He
was with the Army Of Pacification In
Cuba in 1907 and 1903. He served later
on one Of the big New York newspaper

| State Department positions are re-
garded as the most desirable in Wash
ingon. There is a tone about the State
Department which some Of the newer
and bigger bureaus and departments
seem to lack. At the State Department
there are periods of, action and then
periods of distinct inaction. There are
days when the State Department can
furnish more readable news than all
of the other executive departments
combined. 1t is on these busy days that
Mr.. Patchin takes hold and turns out
his reams OF copy. 1t is on such days
as these that he lives and breaths
again.
ReclaiminE Bad Lands.
Up on the seventh floor Of the Recla-
nation Service building at Twelfth and
G streets is the Office of the "statistician''
of the service, that being the nom de
plume under which the press agent of
this branch of the government works.
Upon being asked why he labored under
the high-sounding but somewhat mislead-
ing title of "statistician," while his du-
ties were frankly those of q publicity
agent for the work which Uncle Sam is
doing in the far West In retaining the
lands which nature has seen fit to make
difficult for mans cultivation, c. J.
Blanchard. the first and only press
agent which the Reclamation Service
has had, answered:
well. you see. didn't give myself
the title; II was wished on me. When I

was told that my duties were to be those

for Il u my duty to give the newspapers

they may desire, and in order to do this
/ have to keep up pretty well with the
work that the service is doing In all parts
Of the country
Our work OF informing the public for
their own good may be roughly divided
into three parts. First, the bulletins and
circulars issued periodically by the serv-
ice relative to the contracts awarded by
the Secretary of the Interior and the
work which Is going on under the differ
ent branches Of the service. Secondly,
the lectures in large cities. which are
principally for the purpose OF telling the
people, particularly those who are not in
the habit of reading the newspapers, of
the great opportunities which We are
opening to them in the West and show
ing them how these may be best taken
advantage of. These lectures are almost
always illustrated with colored slides.
which give a splendid idea of the growth
of the country and the work which we
have done and are doing to improve It.
THE third, and in my opinion the most
important part, is that OF giving stories
to the newspapers. In the beginning We
had a hard time to convince the papers
that the work that We were doing was of
O national scope and thus had a wide
spread interest for the people all over the
country. They were a trifie slow to see
that it differed from the work Of a pri-
vate corporation or enterprise. the chron-
icling of which would be merely adver-
tising under another name: but as soon
as they comprehended the situation they
were quick to respond. and now We can't
give them enough news.
Million q Month.
!. Some idea of the immensely of the
work which is being done by the service
may be obtained from the fact that We
are spending a million dollars q month In
improving the country, and in order that
the people at large. the people whose
money we are spending. shall know what
We are doing we must have publicity.
This 1t is my duty to give, and firmly
believe that 1t is doing an immense
amount of good. There has been a large
amount of criticism in many places re-
Garding the so-called press agents or
the different branches of the government.
and several members of Congress have
expressed II az their opinion that the
publicity bureaus are nothing more than
advertisements of the heads of the de-
partments. I cAAnot answer for the other
branches of the government, but here the
personal equation Is absolutely absent.
There Ii . rule here that no mention shall
be made of the name OF, any one who
does the work, and, even the SECRETARY
himself II only alluded to by his of1cial
title
'Tt II only by strict adherence to tbs
rule that We are able to escape criticism.
and It certainly cannot b aid Of the
