WINTER UNDERWEAR.
HOW TO MAKE IT LAST.

A crochet needle is good thing
to mend knit underwear with.
To do this place the worn por-
ton in an embroidery frame,
then with thread to suit the
mesh of the garment, wool. silk
or cotton pick up the ends Of the
stitches where they are broken
of and unite them, working back
and forth until the holes are
filed in evenly and smoothly.
Perhaps the neck Of the under
wear has stretched in the wash
ing until it is all out Of shape.
In that case run a drawstring
around the neck, wet 1t and
draw it into place: then when it
is dry it will be the proper size.
~ You may then crochet a neat
beading in place of the one
which has worn away. And II
the buttonholes have worn out
rip off the old facing in the
front and stitch on In its place
new strip OF sateen. Sew the
old holes together as closely as
you can to their original size
and shape; then catch them
down to the sateen and cut that
to At: then work the hole as you
would IL 1t were a new one.

purposes in various rooms since the be-
| ginning of the year although the work
on the interior has been in progress dur
ing that time aud some will not be COM
pleted until spring. The formal, or per-
haps more correctly speaking, informal

there will be vocal selections rendered by
such we'll known local artists as Mes
danes Finerty, Milne, Sorenson, and
Ober, Misses Mahon, B~leakley, and Fin
nerty and Messrs Dorval and Bleakley.
The speaker of the evening will be DR..
Creegan, president of the Fargo college,
and Prof Hayward will devote a hall
hour to "reminiscences of Langdon
school history. The earlier periods will
be recalled in short talks by Messrs Fox,
Power and Sheehan, all of whom have in
years gone by had charge of the Lang
don schools. The ladies are serving re-
freshments and a hour of social inter-
course will bring the affair to a close.

February 18th, st. Valentines eve is the
date of a leap year party and social to
be held in the Presbyterian church
basement.
