As a result of a recent ruling by the
Attorney general of Oklahoma that the
new college 1. nds in northwestern Ok-
lahoma caunot be sold in sections,
where the land in a section is divided
between different institutions, it is
row quite probable that none of the
land will be sold until an act of con-
gress can be secured, authorixing the
state to sell all of the land at one time
and pro mte the proceeds among the
schools in proportion to the amount of
their grant. The land aggregates
1,060,000 acres.
HILL'S BUSINESS COLLEGE NOTES
in the BCcotupnaylnK sketch will be
found excellent, as It Is new enough
to be quite smart, and yet not In any
way exaggerated. It Is more becom-
ing to the face than a brimless tur-
ban, also the light line of the small
brim sets off the hair well nna saves
the general effect from being at all
heavy.
The Materials —A cri\wn of folded
black velvet and a brim af cream-
colored lace would be most useful, as
; It would go with any costume, then
' the rosette at the side might be work-
1 «d out In dull gold, or In any bright
j shade which happens to suit the wear-
er; or the crown might be of black
I corded silk, and the brim and rosette
i of one of those fashionable Paisley-
| patterned ribbons. An all blue hat
with the crown and brim both alike,
and Just a touch of bright green or
gold In the rosette at the side would
be very smart with a navy costume,
or all brown with a brown costume
The rosette might be replaced by a
little furry head to match the stole
and muff. Endless changes can be
rung on this Idea, so that It can be
ntad? to suit almost any circum-
stances.
A yard of narrow velvet, or half a
yard of wide silk will be enough for
the crown. The brim will take a
yard of ribbon, and the rosette about
another half. Of course, these quan
titles will vary a little according to
the sire of the hat chosen You will
also need a buckram shape, w hich !
should be large enough to come w ell j
dow n on the head, and an odd scrap j
of thin silk or sateen for the lining
The Making.—If the shape is not
wired, you must wire It round the
brim ns shown in the illustration.
Choose wire which matches the rib
bon or lace with which you mean to
cover the brim, and hold it down by
strong stitches all round the edg.?.
Now take the lace, lay It wrong side
out on the Inner side of the brim,
stitch It down, turn It over the right
I side and draw it up round the head on
' the right side of the brim so that It
sets quite smoothly without anv
, wrinkles or puckers. I.lne the wrong
