VS/ 7 CORRECT FOOTWEAR
In times gone by a person’s rank was often determined by the cockade on a hat, the height of stock or the length of a shoe.
The luxury and refinement of PATRICIAN Shoes for Women mark their wearers, one and all, as members of a discerning prd particular class. It is
to this discriminating class that the Patrician Shoe appeals. This sense of fitness is one which has influenced the makers of Patrician Shoes to produce styles
appropriate to the season’s Dress Fashions.

MR. A. M. TRAWICK TO WED
MISS MARY MAUDE WILDER
The following from an exchange
will be of interest to friends of Miss
Annie Trawick, of this city, who is
a relative of the groom-to-be:
Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Wilder an
nounce the engagement and ap
proaching marriage of their daugh
ter, Mary Maude, to Mr. A. M. Tra
wick, Jr., the. marriage to take place
at the Warioto settlement early in
June.
For the last three years Miss Wil
der has been connected with the
Methodist Training School at Nash
ville, Tenn., one of the leading in
stitutions of its kind in the South,
and during her connection there has
won many fi lends by her womanly
THRO’A LORGNETTE
The Aveuing Bull Moose—
She Left Her Due Bill—
The Southern Woman in
Public.
He is a lovely child with the face
of a cherub, the voice of a siren, the
imagination of a poet, and the dispo
sition of a very real ten-year-old child.
His family delights in his quaint imag
inings, his surprising fancies, but that
others do not see them—and inci
dentally some other things—!n the
same way is a fact that, is testified
to In such conversations as this.
“It is positively heathenish,” said
one friend to another, “how they en
courage that child in his absurdities.
I call him extremely silly, but his
mother seems to think that what he
says is either funny or at least inter
esting. Why, she actually told me
with positive glee, the other day, of
his latest, folly. The boy asked her
to lock the bed-room door when they
went out of it to go downstairs to
dinner.
" Rut way do you want it locked?’
she asked.
“ ‘Because of the bull-moose,’ was
the answer. Then the boy surprised
her by taking infinite pains to avoid
stepping on the strip of green velvet
carpet on the stairs and by jumping
over the green rugs in the lower
hail.
“ ‘You see,’ he exclaimed, 'all the
green belongs to the bull, and If I
step on it h<- will swallow me.’
“And do you know,’’ the disapprov
ing lady went, on to say, "the bull
moose was nothing more or less than
the stuffed head of a moose hanging
at the head of the stairs.” Then, Ip
reply' to something said by the other:
O no, they all take paius to explain
that the boy 1* nothing of a coward,

disposition and attractive personality.
Mr. Trawick Is the son of Dr. A. M.
Trawick, of Nashville, and is a mem
ber of the Totinessee annual confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal
church, South. He is a graduate of
the academic and Biblical depart
ments of Vanderbilt University, and
now holds the chair of religious so
ciology and pedagogy in Iho Meth
odist. training school.
After the marriage they will at

York School of Philanthropy, study

cial service. On their return to Nash
ville they will he at. homo to their
friends at 424 Sixth avenue, north.
totally unknown to him, but—well, I
call it a deplorable condition of af
fairs."
After this the conversation turned
to matters social, and thu woman who
had criticized the child began to tell
how she couldn’t entertain fn this,
that or the other more convenient
fashion “because it isn’t done in Au
gusta that way,” and how she liked
Mrs. X but never asked her to her
house “because nobody else does.”
Again, she hated such an such fash
ions but everybody wore this, that,
or the other, and she could not think
of being different.
The friend listened long and pa
tiently until ft came to her that to
the speaker society, the little local so
ciety of Augusta, was the great big
stuffed head of a moose whose slight
est behests most be obeyed or the
culprit would be swallowed whole.
And the listener went away exceed
ing thoughtful.
We have all known or at least have
heard of those people who ctyrry their
ungraciousness so far that they not
only never show a courtesy to any
one else, but they find It absolutely
Impossible to accept a courtesy, but at
a recent, afternoon tea fn Augusta the
wife of a minister told a story of a
woman who in this respect positively
out-herods Herod.
She was such an extremely difficult
person that no one In the parish
could possibly get along with her, but
the n< w minister had met apparently
impossible rases before this, and he
and his wife determined not to give
up until they had won her to the
paths of peace and mutual helpfulness.
She had constantly referred. In the
minister's presence, to the excellence
of his predecessor, and so naturally
he thought that nothing could be more
acceptable than an invitation to meet
the man she apparently found the one
man worth any kind of consideration.
And so, when the admired one hap
pened to bo In town far a day or two
ho was given a dinner by the new
minister ana his wife, and the guest
to whom was given first considera
tion was the woman whom nothing
could please. She came, possibly out
of curiosity, and when she got there
she found nothing to criticize and ap
parently had a good time In spite of
herself. She even brought herself,
about a fortnight later, to pay her
dinner call, hut after she hud given
her card to the man at the door, she
suddenly realized what she was do
ing, and asking to havo the card
given back to her, wrote In the cor
ner of the piece of cifrdboard "Duo
Bill,’' and handed it back to the as
tounded man.
Nine, persons out of ten will, If you
ask them the question, assert that.
Southern women are, as a rule, far
less conspicuous in public than are
their Northern sisters, and yet there
are many who know that the
woman of the smaller Southern
towns, accustomed not only to quiet
open spgcee but to the security of
the knowledge that, she Is everywhere
surrounded by friends, is generally
muoh freer from self-consciousness
than is her sister of the larger North
ern cities, and that consequently she
sometimes moves and speaks with a
greater freedom that might bo miscon
strued as wilful conspicuousness.
Not long ago an Augusta husband
of a charming and refined and all
around cultured wife was traveling
with his wife and children between
Washington and New York In a par
lor ear crowded of eourse with total
strangers. The man was sitting at
the other end of the ear from his
wife and entered Into conversation
with a stranger, a Northerner. The
talk turned to the differences between
Northern and Southern women, and
their comparative InoonsplcuousnesH.
Each, of course, took up for the wom
en of his own section, took up for
them enthusiastically.
The Southern man was in the midst
of an assertion that the true South
ern lady was never really “heard” In
public places, when strong and clear
there came to him his wife’s voice
from the other end of the parlor car:
"O John, please come and give these
children some water. They are so
thirsty.”
There was nothing to do but make
the best of it, and the man laughed
as heartily at his own dlscomforture
as did the stranger, who was immedl
ately Introduced to the little Southern
gentlewoman, whom he found every
thing that his fancy had once painted
the genuine Southern lady as being.
