MAKING OVER ONES OLD DRESS.
Not So Difficult This Year as in For
mer Seasons.

One of the easiest ways of giving a
new lease of life to an old silk or satin
dress is by yelling it with some trans
parent material-net, chiffon. mar
quisette, silk wolfe, etc. Some of these
materials are quite expensive The
nets. for instance, cost very little and
are two yards wide Chiffon is about
yard and a quarter wide. and you can
get a very wearable quality for so or
- cents u yard.
You can use a black yelling over
white or over a color provided the
color is brilliant enough not To be to-
tally Obscured by the overdress. Black
worn with white or with a vivid color
is the most popular color of the year.
but you can use one color with another.
if you like For instance. American
beauty pink is used with royh purple
old blue with flesh color, kings blue
and flamingo, rose over white, black
and old gold, royal blue and mastic.
parrot blue and yellow. and so on
through an almost endless series of
computations.
If you nave an old gown that you
want to use as a foundation for a new
dress of chiffon, net, etc, You must
first rip the old skirt apart and cut it
over by a new pattern. Its lines must
be narrow. for merely yelling the dress
viii not give it a new. smart look if its
cut shows its age. If you are remak-
ing a semi-princess dress it will prob
ably only be necessary to rip the skirt;
but if At is a princess dress you ought
to take it all apart. although the prin-
cipal change will be in the skirt part
of the dress.
In recruiting your foundation be sure
that the lower edge of the skirt is in
perfect condition. If the facing is
worn or frayed replace 1t, or it will
give a shabby look to your dress.
Look over all the hooks and eyes and
buttonhole loops. The hooks and
eyes should be reserved if they have
pulled or worked loose.
If you find that you will have to
replace the chemisette and under
sleeves, use a plain, fine net.
AS to necks and sleeves in general,
all simple. practical dresses and tail
ored waists have high necks and long
sleeves. For afternoon dresses and
for semi formal daytime affairs.
sleeves are either elbow or three
quarter length. In an afternoon dress
you can use d high, collarless, French
or Dutch neck, the neck depending
largely on the purpose of the gown.
For dress that you would wear to a
restaurant a matinee or reception
the waist should be high-necked or
collarless But if you are receiving
or serving at an afternoon reception
you can use the French neck, which is
a little lower than the collarless. but
not quite as low as the Dutch, or
else the Dutch neck itself.

CHANGING THE CALENDAR.

And now it is the calendar that is
to be changed. a little while ago it
was the clock, SAYS the New York
Tribune Somebody discovered that
there was a deplorable waste of day
light involved in sleeping for an hour
or two after sunrise and making up
for it by working for an hour or two
by artificial light after sunset; which.
of course. was indisputable. That en-
gaging reform was not universally
adopted. but its inventor was not dis
Outraged, and now he emerges again
with his scheme of turning the cal
endar topsy-turvy.
He has discovered that the real
cause of poverty, war. pestilence, ig-
norance, domestic infelicity and all
the other ills To which flesh is heir
is II be found in the calendar. Just
think Of il, The days Of the month
shift year by year to different days
Of the week. so that in one year
Christmas falls on Sunday. the next
on Monday. and so on That neces-
states printing new calendars each
year. Think Of the stupendous cost
Of that, Militarism isn't a marker to
IL. NO wonder the people are I'M
poVerished. And then think of the
time that is wasted in looking up
dates. to see on what day of the
week they fell. or will fall. How can
men be expected to accomplish any
thing when all their waking hours
and much Of their dreams are occu-
pied with wrestling with the calen-
dar? II only it had not been for that
we might already have got into the
twenty first century instead of drag
ging along in the twentieth.
And so it is proposed to knock
the calendar galley west by making
one day in each year nameless dies
non, leaving 364, which is an exact
multiple Of seven. and thus causing
each day Of the month or year al
ways to fall upon the same day OF
the week. Nothing could be simpler
OF course. il would play mischief
with the worlds habits, customs and
convictions, but what does a triflt
like that count for against the inn

KNIGHTS Of PYTHIAS
HAD A VISITOR
Medals Were Also Handed Around
Regardless.

The regular meeting Of the knights
OF Pythias on Friday night was OF
more than ordinary interest for the
grand chancellor, Judge Campbell of
Tucson was present and for his en-
tertainment work was eXemplified in
the first and third degrees.
Another matter out Of the usual run
was the presentation Of the gold
medal to the winning team. There
were two teams in competition for
degree work, one composed of the
younger members and the other OF
the older. The latter team did not
appear and the medal in the form Of
a watch charm was presented by
Chancellor Commander Edens to the
younger team. 1t win be worn by the
captain. Albert Stratton. The pres
entation speech was made by Judge
Campbell.
That was not the only medal
awarded that night Attention had
been called TO the merit of the re-
cipient, / L. Gregory, by The Repub-
lican. Mr.. Gregory was at Douglas.
on life insurance business, at the time
of the battle of Aqua Prieta and the
discretion he displayed has challenged
the admiration Of all who know him.
His loyalty and his solicitude for the
interest Of his company in which he
carries heavy insurance has further
endeared him to the Mutual Benefit
Life.
Accordingly there had been pro-
cured at great expense a tin medal
about the size of q pancake and at
still further expense a broad red rib
bon was attached to it. When the
award was rendered, Mr.. Gregory
with characteristic modesty declined
it. He said that he had done no
more than his duty by himself, his
family and his company. But the
lodge was insistent and finally Mr..
Gregory was chloroformed and deco
rated. There was inscribed on the
medal in the most expensive black
paint procurable. a statement setting
forth that it was awarded for heroic
conduct under fire.

cut is not doubted That canal is
owned by a private corporation, and
without competition. it has been earn
ing a gross revenue of upward of
$2O, O00. 900 a year. But if the Panama
canal takes away any material share
of the SueZ business. Col. Goethals
has assured President Taft that the
Suez canal can come down to the
proposed Panama rates and still de
clare dividends of reasonable size.
The idea of competition between
canals on opposite sides of the At
lantic ocean may seem rather far
fetched. but the canal authorities of
the United States government explain
it in a rational way. They say the
North Atlantic is the harbOr of the
worlds wholesale and manufacturing
trade The principal business of the
world centers around the shores of
that sea. The principal trade of the
world runs into and out of the North
Atlantic That is where all the rest
Of the world comes for it's goods, and
il is the clearing house through
which it does its business and finances
its operations.
Heretofore there has been but one
chief gateway out Of this center Of
trade. that to the eastward through
the Suez canal But now there is To
be a gateway to the westward as
well. through the Panama canal
Hence the competition between the
two gates must flow on all trade be-
tween North Atlantic ports and the
other side OF the world. The ques-
ton of which will get the. greater
share of il is one solely of dollars
and cents.
Col. Goethals, the builder of the
Panama canal. who expects to throw
IL open to commerce in less than two
wears. has explained all this to Presi-
dent Taft during his present visit To
Washington. II will not be matter
OF sentiment, but purely one of when
canal and which route will enable
the ships to deliver their cargoes at
the lesser expense.
The Suez canal at present charges
a toll Of about $40 per net registered
ton. American money and American
measure. From the attitude OF D"th
tbe president and Col. Goethals it is
inferred that they will advocate
charge at Panama of not more than
81 per net registered ton, and possibly
even less than that. What they would
like to have congress do, is to give
the president authority To fix the rate
at anything between 80 cents and
$3.50 a ton. so that he may be able to
decide upon a figure finally to meet
IFS operating expenses, there being no
evidence of intention to try to make
money out of it. OF course. these
rates refer to world traffic. and not
to American ships. as the right is al
WAYS retained to let American vessels
use the canal toll free IL that shall be
deemed best by congress.
