Grand Chancellor Lloyd a Real and True Leader of His People. The Grand Lodge of the Knights of Pythias will convene in St. Louis, Mo. Tuesday, July 22nd, of their 55th Annual Session. This will be the greatest session in the history of the order. For the order has had a phenomenal success during this year, although the war cloud hovered over the land and brought devastation and death, yet the Pythians and Calanthians of our great commonwealth have taken in during the year over 2,050 new members, have organized five new lodges, five new courts, their collections have been approximately $50,000.00. This year's record has eclipsed all previous years. Constructive legislation will be enacted, live and alert men are coming with purposes and plans to keep Pythianism in the forefront. A large number of visitors will accompany the delegates. As great as is the part of Pythianism, a larger greatness in the future is evident. 2,050 members this year, $50,000.00 collected this year and 5 new lodges set up and 5 courts. The Special War Tax suspended, this year's collections surpassed expenses. Sound financial basis maintained and made more secure. This year the local Committee on Entertainment, at St. Louis, has made complete and pleasant arrangements for the Grand Lodge and Grand Court Delegates and visitors. The large delegations from Kansas City and the West will be well cared for as well as the delegates from all other parts of the Pythian Jurisdiction, either state or national. If you would help to bless and improve the condition of mankind, we invite you to come to the city of St. Louis and contribute your time and talent toward that one great end. Informal opening Tuesday evening at Pythian Temple, 3137 Pine street, at 8 o'clock. The welcome address by Hon. Henry W. Kiel, mayor, who will be at his best in delivering address. Response by President Clement Richardson of Lincoln Institute, Jefferson City, Mo. Parade, Thursday afternoon, beginning at 1 p. m. Grand Band Concert at 8 p. m. Drills of Uniform Rank during the evening, all to take place at the Coliseum. The Lodges and Courts anticipate sending the largest delegation to St. Louis this year, that it has ever been the pleasure of its citizens to entertain. CONTACT AND CO-OPERATION Contact and Co-operation with the better class of white people are necessary and desirable in the effort to get a better and more satisfactory understanding between the people of both races. Much of the trouble has been due to the lack of understanding. There can be no common ground of understanding without contact and cooperation. None but very little minds have any fears of efforts in this direction. These are days of big minds and big things. GRAND CHAPTER MEETS. The Grand Chapter Order of Eastern Star held one of the most interesting and largely attended sessions in its history at Carrolton, Mo., this week. More than seventy delegates left in a special car from this city last Tuesday. The Sun went to press before the section of officers had been completed and in our next week's issue we will give a full account of the proceedings of the Grand Chapter as well as a list of the new officers. The funeral of Mr. Richard Fulbright was held last Sunday at 1:30, from Allen Chapel of which he was a member under the auspices of John Turner Lodge No. 106 A. F. & A. M. It was one of the largest Masonic funerals witnessed in this city for years. More than a hundred Knights Templars and about a hundred and sixty Master Masons headed by the Knights Templar Band, being in line. The funeral oration was delivered by the minister, Rev. S. W. Bacote, while brief remarks were made by Grand High Priest, T. G. McCampbell and Past Grand Master Nelson C. Crews. Interment was in Highland Cemetery.

Crews..... Willa Glenn Peebles.... Negro M urse Be ement Richa Negro Veterans Organize Post The above is an excellent likeness of the Rev. Samuel W. McDuffie, the wonderful young evangelist, who is stirring Greater Kansas City from center to circumference. Great throngs crowd to hear him every night, coming from independence, Leavenworth, Argentine, Rosedale and all sections of the city and he preaches the gospel that simply sweeps everything before him. On last Sunday night more than two thousand people heard him deliver a matchless illustrated sermon upon "The Prodigal Son" which set his hearers all over the vast tent shouting with religious joy while on last Tuesday night his rendition of a famous text, "The Eagle Stirreth Her Nest," held his audience with a rush of enthusiasm. He wore a rushing wind and hundreds made new resolutions to stand for the Master. The Sun considers him one of the most remarkable men of the age, and advises its thousands of readers to go hear him. Mr. Geo. W. Dupee, formerly of Jefferson City, Mo., and one of the best known men and Masons of this State but who is now residing in Seattle, Wash., was a pleasant visitor in our city during the past week. --- (By the Associated Negro Press.)

The Past Master's Council is holding weekly meetings at Masonic Temple. The questions before it for discussion are all pertaining to legislation for the best interest of the craft locally and for the craft throughout the entire jurisdiction. Many questions of vital interest to the jurisdiction are receiving serious consideration and are being shaped for presentation to the Grand Lodge for action. The Council is doing a work that is commendable and should be encouraged. Two noticeable features of the work of the Council are, the harmony that prevails and the failure to mention any one for Grand Lodge officers. The members are giving their best thought, energy and time to the plans that will build and extend our usefulness. They believe that unselfish service to others brings the richest reward. The Council which accomplishes things is the one where peace and harmony are coupled with energy and enthusiasm. Next week we will give a brief outline of the work being done that the craftsmen in the jurisdiction may make a study of the needed legislation before the meeting of the Grand Lodge. Nothing worth having can be bought cheap. Everything worth while costs someone dear, and the more expensive it is the more valuable it is, in our estimation. Masonry can be made the most valuable experience in a man's life if he will but put the time and study into it to attain its sublime heights. It is like the mountain. When it stands before the man on the plain it shuts out the viek of everything except its rough and rugged sides, but when he labors and struggles up its steep incline to the topmost peak he sees the beauties of nature for countless miles on every side. Even the atmosphere he breathes is purer and sweeter than that in the lowland. Or if he delves into its depths by blasting away its granite boulders he uncovers the riches of metals concealed in its innermost recesses. In things masonic we must labor to achieve the very end for which we unite ourselves into one common band or society of friends and brothers. The Mason who permits the officers of his lodge to all of the work, never reaches the summit of the mountain of masonic ideals, nor does he acquire the riches of masonic knowledge. He merely stands on the plain and lets the mountain cut off his view. He never is really imbued with the desire to acquire the riches or beauty of masonry for himself. He is content merely to gaze at the rough, uncouth side of the mountain and let it hide from his vision the great beauty and real wealth of knowledge that would be his if he only would exert himself sufficiently to put the rock beneath him and gaze at the world from above it. The mason who wants to get the real benefit of his masonic membership will study its philosophy, read its history and live its precepts. THE BLUE TRIANGLE LEAGUE. Gate City Y. W. C.

Omaha, Neb., July 17—Testifying in District Court in the suit of his son-in-law for annulment of marriage on the grounds of Negro blood in his veins, Douglas B. McCarry, former cashier of the Capitol Savings Bank of Washington, D.C., of which John R. Lynch was president, denied in his testimony on the witness stand, that he had Negro blood or that his father or mother were Negroes or of Negro delineation. McCarry's testimony brought to a dramatic close the trial of the suit of Francis P. Dwyer of this city, for annulment of marriage on the grounds that his wife, Clara McCarry-Dwyer was of at least one-eighth Negro blood which under a Nebraska statute is sufficient for annulment; and that he was unaware of the fact until so informed by a physician following the birth of a child. Dwyer testified on the witness stand that they were married in the Catholic Church in 1916 after a courtship of a year during which time he did not see his wife's father. When informed at the birth of the baby, by the doctor that the baby had colored blood, he said he left his wife and she moved from their apartment to her parents home. He entered the army. On returning, he fitted suit for annulment. Attorney Hueston Stirs Hearers (By the Associated Negro Press.) Detroit, Mich., July 14.—Attorney W. C. Hueston, of the firm of Hueston and Calloway, handling the defense of Leroy Bundy was in the city recently and delivered an address before a large assembly of our people. A large sum of money was raised and subscribed, in order that the case may be carried to the Supreme Court. Detroit pledged $1,000 for the defense. Rev. Dr. T. D. Scott of the A. M. E. Church, other pastors and leading citizens of the community are active in promoting the interest in the effort. Gary, Ind., July 9.—Gary rallied enthusiastically to the support of the Bundy defense movement last Sunday in a splendid meeting addressed by Attorney Wm. C. Hueston of Kansas City, leading attorney in the fight to secure for Dr. Leroy Bundy a reversal of the decision of the lower court which would result in a new trial. The meeting which was held in the First Baptist Church, Rev Hawkins, pastor, was arranged by Mr. Golden, now a prominent figure in the business world of Gary, and Dr. Garnett and was attended by a large audience which included the pastors of the various churches in the city. Attorney Hueston made a vigorous and eloquent statement of the trial proceedings and his audience applauded time after time in approval of the efforts being made in Dr Bundy's defense. Judge Silver, a leading member of the Gary bar, delivered an inspiring address in which he likened the progress being made by the Race against prejudice to that of the Jews, and pledged himself to help our people, while commending the work in which they were engaged. The H. David Glueck Real Estate Company started the subscription with a substantial check. This Company is exhibiting unusual interest in the welfare of the Race in Gary. Dr. Golden is identified with the firm. One hundred dollars in cash was subscribed at the meeting, a goodly sum was pledged and a campaign committee is being formed which expects to visit every person in Gary. Indianapolis, Ind., July 17.—Mrs. Rosie Lynn Mason, mother of Nahum Daniel Brascher, Editor In Chief of the Associated Negro Press, died after an extended illness at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. S.

I earnestly urge all newspaper and magazine owners, whether members of the association or not, to send representatives to this meeting, which will be one of the most interesting in the history of our association. It is for the Colored press to blaze the way for the Race through the veiled future of a great reconstruction period, and to meet these grave responsibilities, to act wisely and timely, is one of the big problems we will attempt to solve at this meeting. Another very interesting feature of this meeting will be the entertainment in Kansas City on the 24th and 25th of July of the Oklahoma Boosters, a large party of Race people who will travel in autos from Tulsa, Ok. via Winfield, Wichita, Newton and Topeka to Kansas City.

Walter Moore, a well known writer says: "It is a common thing for farmers to work their horses in the hayfield from morning to night, watering them only at noon. This is done even on days of excessive heat. The driver usually has two or more refreshing drinks in the middle of the morning, and again in the afternoon; but the horses, who are equally as thirsty, go without. This want of water is not only distressing, but it causes the horses to drink to excess at noon and again at night, which often results in colic, and always tends to produce a distended stomach, or what farmers call a 'hay belly.' Farmers who would treat their horses humanely should take water into the field for them in hot weather." DISTRICT CONFERENCE SOUTH ERN DISTRICT CALIFORNIA ANNUAL CONFERENCE Not in the history of the California Conference has there ever been held such a District Meeting as the one just closed at Grant Chapel, Watts, Calif., with Presiding Elder J. H. Wilson in the chair. Rev. Fred A. Hughes preached the annual sermon from 1 Tim. 3:16, immediately following it Rev. J. Logan Craw was called to the altar to assist in the consecration of the Lord's Supper and the Holy Communion was administered. The Conference was organized and Rev. J. W. Price was elected secretary to succeed himself and the great meeting was off. Rev. A. W. Lacy was introduced and preached the second sermon of the session from a text found in Genesis 22:8 and such preaching took us back to the days of old and we rejoiced. Rev. B. R. Gay extended the invitation and one soul came forward. The papers—"Stressing the great Commission," by Rev B. R. Gay, "Religion and the League of Nations," by J. W. Price, and "The Church and the World," by J. Logan Craw, were far more than high sounding words put together for the delight of the ear; there was thought for the mind and food for he soul, so much so that they were given to the press for publication. Brother George M. Warner was elected to the Annual Conference. Sunday School Convention. Sunday School Convention The Sunday School Convention was opened by Rev. Robt. House, leading devotional. The District Superintendent, Mrs. John R. Wright, was introduced and she in turn introduced Mrs. Ella Fisher and Mrs. Emma Hamilton to lead a consecration meeting and they "fired our souls." Time formality and program were forgotten and a real old fashioned camp meeting was had and it was stopped only to break out again when the District Superintendent, amid tears of joy and delivered a beautiful sermonette, taking for her theme Christ's Admonition to Peter "Feed My Lamb." A model Sunday School—a demonstration—was given to the Convention by Mrs Lillian Craw. Mite Missionary Society. The Mite Missionary Society was never better in its existence. Mrs. J. H. C. Redd, the president, arose to read her annual address but the spirit led her otherwise and she began to speak of the blessing of the Father during the year and in a moment the house was ablaze and there was shouting and praising in His name as in the days of the Fathers. This spontaneous outburst and outpouring of the Holy Spirit was closed by an altar service. Mrs. Daisy B. Johnson sang "He Lifted Me," and read the 121st Psalms. The reports were finally made showing some real work done and the organization of the children into societies. Mrs. J. W.

These irons were purchased by the Light Company for a special sale, which begins Monday morning. "The irons we are putting on sale Monday," said C. F. Fareley, sales manager, "is the famous Hotpoint iron. It runs in two weights, five and six pounds. More than three million housewives in the United States are using this iron, which has some points of advantage over the usual electric iron, among them being the attached stand, thumb rest, and hinged plug cord protector. While they last, we are making a remarkably low price. We do not intend to carry any charge accounts in connection with this forthcoming sale." The Light and Power Company, three years ago, about this time, sold ten thousand irons at a special sale. It is estimated that at least thirty thousand electric irons are in constant use in Kansas City, this city having more irons in proportion to its population than any other city in the United States.

Scholar, Jurist and Statesman—Dis tinguished Missourian May Be the G. O. P. Nominee for President in 1920. By J. Silas Harris. Among the many names of distinguished men that are now being mentioned for the presidency, none is attracting more attention than that of Missouri's favorite son, Senator Selden P. Spencer. By defeating Hon. Joseph W. Folk, former governor and Democratic idol of Missouri, in the memorable senatorial campaign of 1918 Senator Spencer at once became a most formidable character in national politics. For years Missouri has been regarded as the Gibraltar of Bourbon Democracy, but Spencer's signal victory over Folk by a majority of more than 35,000 has placed that grand old commonwealth in the doubtful column—a fact that will be well for the party to consider when selecting the standard bearer for the battle of 120. Spencer is a statesman of ripe scholarship, a man of wide and versatile experience, a gentleman of spotless character, a forceful and convincing orator and a magnetic leader of men. In the years gone by, when the fate of the Republican party was hanging in the balance, it was grand old Missouri that stepped forth and saved the day. The party has never gone west of the Mississippi River for its candidates for President, but the disastrous campaign of 1916 was a gentle reminder that this section—the greater half of the Nation—must no longer be left out of the equation in future presidential elections.

Unbalanced a bit, eh? —That that man who puts office above the best interests of his fraternity is not the right man in the right place. —That recently a roomer "beat up" his landlady and she was another man's wife but there was nothing said or done about it. Wonder why? —That it will not be long until the politicians will be handing out all kinds of taffy and soft soap to the women. You know they vote, now. —That last Monday night a young fellow called up his girl and pretended to be "another fellow" and she talked so sweetly that he got his feelings hurt. Too bad, wasn't it? —That when a young man was injured the other day so many girls demanded that she be the nurse, a supervising nurse had to be employed to keep the bunch from clashing. —That the following poem was dedicated to Grease Jim, the knocker: "We do not care for Grease Jim. We much dislike his knacking ways. No man, it seems, is known to him. For whom he has a word of praise." —That a well known man recently was persuaded to allow his wife to take a trip; he got her all ready and while he was down town getting her some lunch to carry, she had the second hand furniture man to "clean house."

EDITORIALS Regardless of what others may say is an indisputable fact that Rev. S. D. McDuffie is creating the greatest upheaval along religious lines that has ever been witnessed in this city and the people white and colored are coming by the thousands from every section of the city and its suburbs to hear this wonderful man. The wonderful progress made by the Knights of Pythias under the astute and far visioned leadership of Grand Chancellor A. W. Lloyd should be a source of pride not only to every Pythian but to every member of the race in this great commonwealth. That Grand Chancellor Lloyd has more than made good in his long years of service goes without saying and he is an aptiome of that axiom which says: "Some men are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them" all of which applies to our Grand Chancellor. A FOREIGN VIEW OF THE PRESIDENT. By Prof. William H. Dawley "What can you expect? I have to work with two men. One of them believes he is Napoleon, and the other believes he is a new Messiah." This was the reply that Premier Clemenceau gave to a certain French deputy that on the anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo child the Tiger for the delay in the Peace negotiations at Versailles. From this remark attributed to the great French premier it can be concluded that he himself, entertained no such notion either of the English premier, Lloyd George, or the American President, Woodrow Wilson. Yet if we are to credit the carefully studied impartial and well balanced views of the foremost American War correspondent, Frank H. Simonds and Sir John Foster Fraser, special correspondent at Paris and Versailles for the London papers halled our President as a Messiah. Because drank in his sentiments of lofty ideals for their betterment, different from those any important European statesman dared to utter, and saw that those sentiments were supported by myriads of fresh young forceful soldiers and countless resources that seemed inexhaustible. They regarded him as the plenipotentiary representative and spokesman of an undivided people of the globe's most powerful country. They know nothing of the Democratic and Republican parties. To them these names are synonymous. Even students of government outside of England, France and Germany have little difficulty in understanding our dual party system. Hence Europeans believe our ambassadors represent the whole people rather than the political shade of the majority party. And that should not be surprising to us. For how many of us comprehend the German constitution or the French rule of minorities, and when we can template the other European contiental governments we are wholly a sea. An idea is difficult of dislodgement from the minds of people. In the minds of most Negroes in the United States a Democrat is unfriendly, if not an enemy, regardless of the fact that Democrat gives him employment and even pecuniary aid, and if we limit ourselves to Missouri regardless of the fact that Negroes have received more for social betterment and even politically in the wider sense from Democrats than Republicans. Who prevents separate car laws in Missouri? Surely not the Republicans, because they have had no chance. It is, however, not to be denied, that some of the hardest things said against the Negro have come from the Democrats. But they are usually below the Mason and Dixon line, because the Negro when he gets a chance, votes against the interest of the Democrat. At elation times you seldom see people of different political faiths go arm in arm to the polls together. Now this seemingly irrelevant disgression is designed to show that while the American Negro may view President Wilson's attitude toward him in an unfavorable light because he is a Democrat, yet those beautiful ideals, that permeate all his utterances if they apply to humanity necessarily benefit the Negro, if he avails himself of them. However, the people of Europe and even Africa regard President Wilson in a most favorable light, because the timely aid America gave in concluding the war with Germany. Nevertheless, we must not, if I may degrass, again attribute that aid to unselfish and pure generosity. For self-interest if not self-preservation caused American statesmen to see that it would be more advantageous to cross the ocean and whip Germany on her own conti-nent rather than to allow her after defeating France, England and Italy, to cross the ocean and attack the United States on her soil. But the oldest known government in Africa, a government that was venerable before Romulus regard the walls of Rome, before Theseus from the Nile and from the Tigris and Euphrates, a government that caused the armies of Italy to bite the dust and has maintained its independence beyond the time when Israel was in the wilderness, this government has sent to Washington not to seek aid but to convey presents and congratulations to President Wilson for the part the United States played in the World War. Abyssinia has sent in picturesque acoes Ato Sinkae, Ato He- rouy, Kantibia Garbrou, Dedpazzmatch Nado, head of the mission and duke of the royal Abyssinian family and also a descendant of the Queen of Sheba. May this duke be able to repeat of our fair land what his royal ancestress said to Solomon: "It was a true report, which I heard in mine own land of thine acts and of thy wisdom. Howbeit I believed not their words until I came and mine own eyes had seen it, and behold the one half of thy wisdom was not told me: For thou exceedest the fame that I heard."-2nd Chronicles, 9th verse. This betokens a better day for the Negro citizens of the United States. Kantibia—Mayor, Ato—a gentleman of high station. REAL ESTATE BARGAINS Woodland 2120—7 room modern frame $2850. $1500. down.

Dr. Epitacio Pesson, president of Brazil, who arrived in Washington recently, is the first eral Petain has already expressed his intention of visiting the United States and an invitation to do so will be extended to Marshal Foch. The first session of the League of Nations is to be held in Washington in October and will bring to the capital Premiers Lloyd George, Clemenceau and practically all of the distinguished statesmen who have taken part in the peace negotiations in Paris. Visits of royal personages and distinguished European statesmen to the United States in the past were few and far between. In the future they promise to be frequent. The great of the world have conceived a new idea of the importance of the United States since the world war. Moreover, since it is diplomatic courtesy to repay the visit of a chief of state, the rulers of the countries visited by President Wilson will feel obligated to visit the United States, even if they should not be prompted to do so by personal interest. Navy Dress Uniform Knocked Into a Cocked Hat Navy Dress Uniform Knocked Into a Cocked Hat SECRETARY DANIELS has issued an order cutting down the wardrobes of naval officers to a minimum. Gone are the special full-dress outfits which ate up a large portion of the officers' pay. Cocked hats, epaulets and full-dress belts also are forbidden. The order reads: part of the naval officer's equipment the following articles of clothing: Special full-dress coat; mess jacket; full-dress trousers; mess trousers; a cocked hat; epaullets and full-dress belts. "The following prescribed uniforms are abolished by the order: "Special full dress; white special full dress; full dress; white full dress; dress; evening full dress; dinner dress and mess dress. "The action will result in a great saving to the officers of the service in the future, as they are required to purchase all articles of uniforms at their own expense. The only uniforms now authorized to be worn are; Undress, service dress, white service dress, and evening dress, but only the service dress can be worn until the president's proclamation that the war has closed. Epaullets will not be worn with evening dress hereafter." The cocked hat of ancient and honorable memory is now relegated to the museum. It never will be missed. Ideas of Living Expenses Seem to Vary Widely Ideas of Living Expenses Seem to Vary Widely come from $150,000 until she is twenty-one and then the residue of his estate, amounting to $1,250,000. Miss Carroll lives with her mother and attends the Ogontz school of Philadelphia. In June, 1916, Surrogate Fowler permitted her mother to spend $12,500 a year on the daughter, instead of $7,500. Since that time her allowance has been increased to $15,000. A schedule of Miss Carroll's expenses shows: Rent, $2,000; clothing, including sport coats, evening dresses, auto coats, jewelry, furs, toilet articles, manicuring, shampooing, $3,000; household expenses, $4,000; insurance, $850; automobile operation, $5,000; education and church, $2,000; summer cottage, railroad fares, hotel bills, dances and amusement parties, $3,000; physicians, opticians, dentists, drugs and medicines, $1,000. Total, $20,850. Dr. Royal Meeker, commissioner of labor statistics, investigated 348 families in Chicago in the winter of 1918-19. Their incomes ranged from under $900 a year to more than $2,500 a year. Sixty-four per cent of these families sage something; 28.2 per cent showed a deficit, and 0.9 per cent broke even. Demand for Captured Hun Cannon Exceeds Supply DISTRIBUTION of the German cannon, machine guns and other war devices captured by Americans in the world war is provided for by the Wadsworth resolution passed by the senate, which neatly transfers to the states the diffi- "all cannon, gun carriages, machine guns, minenwerfers, mortars, bomb throwers, flame throwers, gas projectors and other war devices captured from the armed forces of Germany and allied nations," with the exception of those required for experimental purposes or actual use by the United States and for national museums, cemeteries and parks. Women Cry "Rank Discrimination." Of Corset It Is 0 F COURSE it is unfair and rank discrimination, and if women had had the vote, or if Jeannette Rankin hadn't been so busy running for United States senator out in Montana and had been attending to her duties in the house it Senator "Jim" Watson of Indiana is a discreet man and model husband, and he may be counted upon to handle this matter without creating scandal. That is the reason why the 500 Hoosier women sent the petition to him. It was clever of him not to go and publish their names in the Congressional Record as signers to a petition which said: "The corset is in no sense a luxury, but a necessity. For the foregoing reasons we respectfully petition and pray that you give your influence against the special tax on all corsets $12 and under and that you voice your vote for the repeal of the section of the 'luxury tax' providing a special tax on corsets over the sum of $5, and that no tax be placed on corsets until they exceed the sum of $12."

Under Senator Wadsworth's plan the secretary of war will apportion to the states and territories and the District of Columbia in the same proportion as that borne by the number of men serving from each state to the total armed force of the United States "all cannon, gun carriages, machine guners, flame throwers, gas projectors and armed forces of Germany and allied required for experimental purposes or for national museums, cemeteries and Women Cry "Rank Discri OF COURSE it is unfair and rank dis vote, or if Jeannette Rankin hadn't senator out in Montana and had been I COULD DO WITHOUT IT'S A NECESSITY Senator "Jim" Watson of Indiana and he may be counted upon to handle That is the reason why the 500 Hoosier was clever of him not to go and put Record as signers to a petition which it "The corset is in no sense a luxury reasons we respectfully petition and put the special tax on all corsets $12 and the repeal of the section of the luxury over the sum of $5, and that no tax be sum of $12." It is difficult to see how congress of the long line of statesmen and royal personages whom the United States is soon to entertain. The prince of Wales is to visit this country in August.

THE KANSAS CITY SUN, SATURDAY, JULY 19, 1919. For the Stork Airplane Passenger Dettra VOLTURE & CITERNE When the single passenger of that oldest airplane—the stork—glides to earth, he expects to find everything in readiness for his comfort at least. But often he finds waiting all sorts of splendid affairs in the way of carriages, cradles or basinettes, of the degree of daintiness and luxury revealed in the picture above, in which muslins, ribbons and frills make a resting place quite fit for an angel. This bassinet is of wicker enameled in white and has a hood of white dotted swiss finished with frills edged with lace. It is mounted on a wooden en carriage, also white enameled, and having narrow rubber tires, so that it is easy to move his babyship about the room or sleeping porch or wherever he takes his protracted naps. Very wide and soft satin ribbon in pink or blue is used for making the several full bows which serve as flags of welcome and signs of honor for the new arrival. A bassinet of this kind is more convenient than a cradle, but not a dovetail. Silks and Cottons Are Rivals 1 TOMORROW & BETWEEN The advance of silk for making many things that used to be made of cotton has been insidious and rapid. For frocks as well as blouses, smoosks and underwear, silk, in the washable varieties, has come to be a powerful rival of the sheer and lovely cotton fabrics that belong to midsummer. The choice lies between crepe-de-chine or crepe georgette and orgyand when the daintiest wash dresses are considered. Gradually the proportion of silk garments in the lingerie wardrobe grows larger and silk stockings have outdistanced those of cotton. But orgyand need not fear that its place will be usurped, even by the lovelest of delicate wash silks, like georgette, because organdy has a crispness that makes it irresistible for hot weather frocks. Nothing can look so fresh or so comfortable when the thermometer is hitting the high places, and nothing is lovelier in white and pale colors. Two midsummer frocks, one made of organdy and one of crepe-de-chine, invite comparison in the picture above. They are both simple and stylish, both deceptively fragile looking, for these sheer materials will stand much wear and look as well after laundering as before, providing they are washed and froned as they should be. The dress at the left of the picture The Newest Sweaters. Exclusive models in new sweaters have three-quarter length Chinese, that is, loose, flowing sleeves, and not only the newness of the idea but its neticality makes a strong appeal. Umbrellas Are Fancy The umbrella' manufacturers have ound a welcome demand in the business supplied by fancy makes. The colored silks and matched handles and tips have proved quite popular with buyers, who not only placed apprecia- and D. Durham This latter has been arranged by outfitters of infants to include all the baby can possibly need, but they state the list following to be the "irreducible minimum." Three bands, three skirts, four plunging blankets, four fannel skirts, six lawn skirts, six slips, three dozen diapers, four pairs silk and wool stockings, one baby blanket. For the winter baby, knit or elderdown jackets are added to these articles. Extra dresses, bonnets, cloaks and bootees are added to the layout when the baby is old enough to get out of doors, a time that arrives early in his career. Baby clothes are simply made; fine lawn and batiste the favorite cotton materials, and the trimming of the narrowest and daintiest laces, needlework and dainty embroidery, all sparingly used. Handwork is the hallmark of excellence in the layette. As for the baby's health, his Uncle Sam has provided pamphlets on all sorts of subjects that the inexperienced mother may use as a guide. Dress & Fashion is made of white organdy, with full bodice and a short tunic. Very narrow tucks and fine valce edging provide decoration for it and the lace is set on to the organdy with a narrow beading. The sleeves are long with flaring cuffs set onto the upper portion with beading. A wide folded girdle of organdy is held in place by a sash of narrow figured ribbon. Tails dress is an excellent model for a slender figure. The picture of the dress at the right tells all there is to tell of it. It is made of white crepe-de-chine with half length sleeves and Chinese collar that proclaim it an up-to-date model of the slip-on style. One More Contrast. In a world of odd contrasts, why not trim a graceful leghorn garden hat with a narrow band of fur? Such a thing has recently been encountered in the realm of fashion. Gay Linings. As to linings?

Fashion in Woman's Dress Jolted at the U. of I. URBANA, ILL—Fashion in woman's dress has received a severe jolt from Leona Hope, author of a circular printed by the home economics department of the college of agriculture of the University of Illinois. It is full of and the eyes of men—and jealous women. But somehow we can't just bring ourselves to do it. Let one girl attire herself merely with regard to "protection and modesty" and let her twin sister decorate herself in accordance with State street's latest dictates. Let them both stroll across the campus of the U. of L. We would wager the amount of the university's biennial appropriation that 99 per cent of the university's attention—feminine as well as masculine—would be centered on the foolish assembler of fashion's wild dreams, even if her throat were bare to a winter blizzard or her neck swathed in summer furs, rather than upon her ultramodest sister. "The Kids They Kill; the Robbers They Let Go" "The Kids They Kill; the Robbers They Let Go" C HICAGO.—In the opinion of the police, Rudolph Boruda was a good man—dead. They knew him as a nervy crook, who used a gun. Much congratulatory slapping took place in the Deering street police station the morning after Boruda was killed. The detectives On the rickety steps of the Boruda home at 2866 Keeley street were Ruddy's three weeping sisters. The mother silently took her place among them. The ruddy was shot by Detectives Byrnes and Mulcahay. He was driving a stolen car and answered an order to stop with a pistol shot. He on fire until killed. Doors of Penitentiary Open for Woman Kidnaper Doors of Penitentiary Open for Woman Kidnaper PITTSBURGH.—The state penitentiary's doors have swung open for Helen McDermott Boyle, the Chicago woman convicted ten years ago in Mercer county and sentenced to serve 25 years for complicity in the kidnapping of father died broken-hearted. Her mother is now eighty. There was bitter opposition from Attorney Whitla. Helen Boyie leaves with no mark of prison upon her. Ten years of confinement have treated her lightly. An indomitable determination that she "would not weaken" has saved her the physical ravages of a penitentiary sentence. Although confinement failed to stifle her spirit, the years have rested heavily on Jimmy Boyie. The toll of confinement has given him a seamed face and snowwhite hair. She says Jimmy Boyie's wife Helen is dead. Helen McDermott is left and wants to forget. "East Lynne" Stuff in the Country and the City G ALESBURG, ILL.—Our story opens on a fair summer's day in the sylvan corneid four and one-half miles east of Avon, Ill.—the 100-acre farm of C. B. Eshelman. It is the dinner hour. Wearly, from the farmhouse back door, a woman in girder dress walks. Get the setting: Lonesome farmer's wife—drudgery, no respite from daily routine; resigned, no doubt, but dreaming—as women will. Along comes cityeller; sympathetic, chivalrous. Wowie. Now for the "East Lynne" stuff: "Jim" had no one to cook for him, so he boarded at Charley's house—Charley is Mr. Eshelman. Charley was intent on making this year's crop yield a goodly profit, so he didn't observe the budding romance until his wife—her name's Rose—disappeared, as did Jim. Charley also says $1,000 disappeared from a cupboard. Charley and Reed F. Cutler, state's attorney of Fulton county, went to Chicago. They were sleuthing on Mich. Boul. near Monroe when Charley stopped the traffic with: "There's that gal, there's that gal. There's Big Jim with her. She's all dressed up." "I don't want go back. I won't go back. There wasn't no spice of romance in your life," screamed Rose. "Police, police!" yelled Reed, and East Lynne was transferred to the central detail station. They Wanted to See What the New Car Would Do WILMETTE, ILL.—Boy, when a motorcycle cop going 70 miles an hour can't keep up with you you're going some. Don't let 'em tell you different. And when the judge says, "Fine you the limit—$200 and costs," and you new car could do. It was on the concrete stretch of road into Wilmette. Motorcycle Policeman Clement C. Ley chased the speeders, but soon quit. His partner, Albert Ottone, whose machine is good for 80 miles an hour, and a little bit more, overtook the machine. And his speedometer showed 80 miles. It couldn't show any more. That was its limit. Shaw and his friends were haled into the speeders' court in Wilmette, and at three o'clock in the morning Justice Mickey imposed the limit fine. Father wouldn't pay it. But mamma, Mrs. Edith A. Shaw of the Edgewater Beach hotel, paid it later in the day. When the times are such that a seventeen-year-old boy at midnight drives 80 miles an hour on a public highway and thinks it is smart—why, the twentieth century is going some.

James Boyle, the woman's husband, is serving a life sentence. The state board of pardons acted favorably upon the prison board's recommendation that she be paroled.

Teacher of English Bible in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) (Copyright, 1919, Western Newspaper Union) LESSON FOR JULY 20 THE LORD'S SUPPER. LESSON TEXTS-Mat. 25:36-19 I Cor- l. 26:10 GOLDEN TEXT-For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do show the Lord's death till he come.—I Cor- l. 26:10 ADDITIONAL MATERIAL-Mark 1:22 PETRALINK, 10:14:48 PLERMALINK, 10:14:48 PLERMALINK, 10:14:48 Jewish Jewish PRIMARY TOPIC-Remembering Jesus (Luke 22:19) JUNIOR TOPIC-The Lord's Supper reminds us of Jesus. INTERMEDIATE TOPIC -The meaning of the Lord's Supper. SENIOR AND ADULT TOPIC-Communion with Christ and with one another. 1. The Institution of the Lord's Supper (Matt. 26:26; 1 Cor. 11:23). 2. Time: It was on the night of the betrayal of Jesus, just after the betrayer had been announced. 3. The circumstances: In connection with the eating of the Passover. At the command of Jesus the disciples made ready the Passover, and while they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed it and gave it to the disciples. 4. Elements: (1) The bread. This doubtless was the common bread of the Passover feast. (2) The cup. This cup consisted of the fruit of the vine. 5. II. The Significance of the Lord's Supper (Matt. 26:26-28; I Co. 11:24-20). Jesus took natural and literal elements and made them to be symbols of his own body and body. Just as our bread and drink are assimilated into brain and brawn, becoming an integral part of our body, so by means of these symbols the communicent partakes of Christ. He becomes a part of us and we are in him. It is both a memorial and a prophecy. 1. A memorial of the Lord (Luke 22:19). When he went away he left the bread and the cup for the disciples by which to remember him. Those who love him will desire to keep sacred this memorial. 2. To show the Lord's sacrificial death (I Cor. 11:26). He did not as a hero or as an example of unselfish devotion, but as a substitutionary ransom. On the cross he made expiation for our sins. 3. It is a guaranty that our sisus are forgiven (Rom. 4:25). When the believer partakes of these elements his faith is confirmed. "It is a signet of the Son of God attached to redemption." 4. Through them the believer received Christ (I Cor. 10:16). He thereby participates in the body and blood of Christ, becoming a member of his body. Christ lively in the believer (Gal. 2:26). The Holy Spirit communicates the life of Christ to believers, making them one body, joined together (Eph. 4:16). This union is illustrated by the figure of the human organism (I Cor. 12:12:27); the vine and branches (John 15:18); the husband and wife (Eph. 5:25, 26); we are one bread and one body (I Cor. 10:17). 5. A forward look to a completed redemption (I Cor. 10:26). When faith is exercised in Christ, redemption begins, and its completion will take place at the coming of Jesus Christ (I Theses 4:16, 17). The bread and the cup constitute the keepsake of the Lord until he returns. These elements possess an immense psychological value both as a memorial and a prospect. III. Qualifications for Participation in the Lord's Supper (I Cor. 11:27, 34) 1. A proper apprehension of its meaning (v. 27). Eating and drinking "unworthily" does not refer to the plight of the communent, but to the failure of the communent to grasp its meaning and importance. Therefore, to thoughtlessly engage in this service is to do it "unworthily." Only a regenerated person can discern the Lord's body (v. 20, cf. 2:14). Faith in the integrity of Christ's person and work is essential. Anyone who does not believe in the absolute deity of Christ and his vicarious atonement is an unworthy communent. 2. Church membership (I Cor. 11; 18:22). The Lord's body is the church which is composed of regenerated men and women, united to Jesus Christ as head and to each other as members of that body by the Holy Spirit. 3. Orderly walk. The disorderly should be debarred from the Lord's table, examples of which are the following: (1) Immoral conduct (I Cor. 5:1-13). It is perilous to the individual who is guilty of immorality to approach the Lord's table (v. 30). Sickness and death are oftentimes visited upon such. This explains why some are mysteriously taken away in death. (2) Heresy (Titus 3:10; John 4:2, 3) (3) Schismatics (Rom. 16:17). Those who are causing divisions in the church should be debarred. Effects of Cheerfulness Cheerfulness rises from hearts of deep pathos, of rich sensibilities and quiet gentleness. It is more than the vigor of mere physical health; it is a kindly condition of soul purified in harmony with the Christ. He was not solemn and sour, like some saints, but full of joy, bright with blessness, winsome to old and young. Such a heart is always thinking of others rather than of himself, everywhere scattering sunshine, while the gloomy are examining themselves and exhibiting their unhappy condition to every one they meet. How Can One Forget? God living in us, and with us, and under us! How then can a man forget God? Face of the Master: "Be sure that whenever you make an unselfish effort to comfort another, you will get a glimpse of the face of the Master."
