gregatiOn.

At the evening services at Mount Cab
anne Christian Church Sunday the Reverend
Frank G. Tyrrell. pastor. invited the men
to take of their coats and be comfortable.
This church Is on the southwest corner OF
Kings Highway boulevard and Morgan
street. 1t is surrounded by trees and there
"A plenty of breeze when the air Is stirring.
But Sunday evening 1t was swelterineiy
hot on that corner, the same as on all otner
corners In St. Louis. and the brothers took
OF their coats and went shirt waist
through the sermon
The pastor said he believed the men
would be more comfortable without their
coats on and felt assured the sisters would
not object
The brothers looked to see how the sisters
took the suggestion. They saw only smiles
Of approval and then off came the coats.
The Reverend MIR. Tyrrelrs innovation. II
ia believed, will result In an increased at
tendance at his church. Many persons. ne
believes. are kept away from church by the
hot weather, and 1t is his purpose to a!iow
the men of his congregation to take on tneir
co.ts whenever the weather Is hot.
considerable discussion has oeen inoalg.S.a J.
in regarding the Reverend MI. Tyrrel
rule but 1t met with the general approval OF
ali OF his congregation The Reverend Mr.
Tyrreu says he can see no harm In snirt
waists, or even in men appearing In churcn
IN ordinary negligee shirts. What he wants
is to preach the gospel. whether the men
OF his church are coatless or not.

THESE MINISTER'S GIVE
APPROVAL TO SHIRT WAISTS
The Reverend Mr.. Bates Congratu-
lates Fred Suits, Who Ap-
peared COatless at His
Church in Maple
wood.

The Reverend George Bates. pastor Ct
the Congregational Church in Maplewood.
Is an advocate OF the shirt waist in the
church. Last Sunday when Fred X. Suits.
one Of his parisnioners. appeared in church
aitired in a gorgeous garment OF the latest
style. the parsOn hastened down he aisle
to meet him and congratulate him on his
appearance. He said that he thoroughly
approved Of shirt waists in church anc
would wear one himself in the pulpit IL he
thought his parishioners would not object.
Mr.. Suits claims to be the original shirt
waist nan in Missouri at divine services.
He says he felt dubious when entering the
church Sunday about the reception that he
would get and trembled as he walked down
the aisle, fearing that some one would In
sist upon his election.
Nothing of the kind occurred. however.
and when Doctor Bates finished his sermon
he hastened down the aisle to grasp Mr..
Suits by the hand. Il think you are per-
fectly right" said the pastor. ''for in this
hot weather a man should consult his own
comfort first. / would not for moment
insist upon my parishioners wearing coats
at divine services on a day like this. for
that would be next to an inquisition. l en-
WED your cool appearance very much while
I was preaching"
Mr. Suits says that a number OF the
ladies also expressed their approval of his
garb and that since Sunday a number OF
other male parishioners have given orders
to their tailOrs for shirt waists.
