lettings from the Workbag

Summer hat bands are the newest
thing and some very beautiful ones
have been made by the summer girl.
Colored beads are applied on coarse
net banding of the color of the hat.
The result is that when the band is
laid around the crown the foundation
for the work is practically invisible
and the decoration appears to have
been done on the hat itself.
In this way bands can be made
from beads to match the color design
of the gown. and one hat serve for
several bands.

Useful Hints

To prevent the skin from discolor-
ing after fall or blow, take little
dry starch, inoisten it with cold
water, and lay it on the injured part.
1t is a good plan to pepper a carpet
thickly just where any heavy piece
of furniture has to rest on it, as this
helps to keep moths, etc, away.
To clean glass toilet bottles, put a
little vinegar and salt into the bottle,
allow to stand for two hours and then
rinse out in clear, warm water
To restore a voice rendered hoarse
by much speaking, eat piece of an
chovy. If there is no cold or fatigue
the effect Is almost instantaneous.
If tablespoonful of vinegar is put
in the saucepan just before straining
the potatoes, this will take all black
ness out and make them white and
fioury.
Some people place a small bag of
unslaked lime inside the piano to
keep the damp away. This prevents
the wires from rusting and keeps the
piano in good condition.
In order to insure a good gloss on
starched collars, first mix the starch
with cold water, and tiny lump of
butter about the size of small mar
BILE, then pour on the boiling water.

greater knowledge OF the Bible is the
need of American educational system.

That the higher education OF the
negro has not been a failure in fur
nishing opportunities for success may
be illustrated by three concrete ex-
amples here In Chicago. First there
is a brown-skinned lawyer, with a

who stands at the head of his profee-
sion. He began life poor boy,
worked his way through college, and
when he was examined for admission
to the bar was obliged to button his
shabby overcoat close to his person

tered suit he wore Today he is said
to be worth $1,O00,000 in real estate,
stocks and bonds, and has an income
of $4,000 per annum from his practice

tour around the world. and states
that only in his native land has he

The work for girls at Hampton insti-
tute leads to the important occupa-
tions of homemaking and teaching.
When a girl enters Hampton institute
she has the opportunity of receiving
thorough training in domestic science.
The girls work daily for IL months in
the laundry and in the boarding de.
partments under the supervision of ex-
perienced teachers, and carry on their
academic studies in the evening the
same as the boys who are in the work
class. The mental and moral training
that the year of combined work and
study gives makes 1t one of the most
valuable years of the course. The
working day for the girls is shorter
than for ii- boys. but girl may earn
from SIS 10 SIS a month. This enables
her to be entirely self-supporting dur.
ing her first year in school and to ac.
cumulate balance toward defraying
the expenses of the second year. A
girl In the work class needs very lit
tie money besides her entrance fee
and first months board. The course
is advised for all new girls regardless
of their ability to pay their way in the
day school,
Throughout their course at Hampton
institute, negro and Indian girls are
taught the elements of arithmetic,
English, agriculture, history, as we'll
as scientific housekeeping, physiology,
cooking and sewing, and the principles

for useful living wherever they may
happen to be thrown.
