From the lower side of the clasp a strong hook is suspended. This hook
is a patent hook, opening to catch the strings of parcels, and snapping
tightly together again.
A little snap on the under side of one of the wings opens, and the body
of the butterfly turns back and reveals a neat little purse, large
enough for car fare or railroad tickets.
The buckle is principally intended for the use of bicyclists who need to
utilize every scrap of space, but for ordinary wear it is neat and
attractive as well as useful. G.H.R.
FIRST PRIZE CONTEST.
It has been difficult to separate carefully the best two lists from
among the two hundred and odd received in the FIRST PRIZE COMPETITION.
However, a very careful canvass of them has been made, and it has been
found that as many as ten were complete lists. Naturally, those who sent
in first receive the prizes, and we are pleased to announce that the
first prize goes to Miss Marguerite Metivier, Greenwood Ave., Waltham,
Mass., and the second prize to Walter L. Solomon, 344 West 145th Street.
If they will write us their choice of the prizes, we will send them
immediately.
