National Cathedral RiUaLing
Old World Structures Will Be
Completed by EpiscOpaIians

WASHINGTON. Feb. 9.-By
The Associated Press)rPlans for
immediate completion of a great
American National Cathedral, larg-
er than Westminster Abbey and
rivclling the celebrated structures
OF Europe were announced here
at the annual convention of the
Episcopal diocese OF washington.
Costing ten million dollars. and
with its great central tower rising
above the Washington monument,
the great edifice is planned to take
in the hearts of Americans the
place where the old Abbey occupies
among the British nation; to prob.
ably become the final resting place
Of Americas celebrated dead and
as "a witness for Christ in the cap
ital of the nation"
The plans contemplate more than
a diacesean cathedral they embrace
a national shrine.
Beginning in a comparatively
small way, the first Bishop of
Washington, the late DIR. Henry
Yates SatterIee. made it his life's
work to acquire and pay for the
site, which has grown until now it
comprises sixty four acres, on the
heights of the northwest section,
overlooking the Potomac. and with

Heels are of comparatively recent origin. The modern shoe is the evo-
luiOnary development of the old thong and sandal The proper repairing of
the heels on your shoes will save you a lot of discomfort
There are many different kinds of heels for womens shoes. The most
common ire French, Louis, Cuban, military, kidney, spool and Spanish.
Shoes should always, to give the best service, have the proper heel for
the service that you expect to give the shoe. For walking and street wear
the Cuban Or military heel is preferable While any heel can be used for
walking or street wear, the excessively high heels put an undue strain upon
the arches of the foot and may cause serious foot trouble.
For dress wear and dancing. shoes with French heels of wood are gen.
orally worn. Wood heels are light in weight and give good service for the
wear that they are designed for, but as most of them are made of maple, and
as the grain of the wood run with the heel it is necessary to use the utmost
caution in repairing them in order to prevent splitting. Nearly all Cuban and
