the mingled horror and approval of the
Roman Catholic clergy. 1t is the wear
ing OF a large cross.
So much in demand are crosses Of all
sizes, but especially the large ones. and
OF all kinds Of material. that some
jewelry manufacturers nave neglected
work on other trinNets to devote their
efforts TO making crosses.
Some priests approved the fashion
until they learned its origin and made
observations which convinced them that
not all the women SVhO wore crosses
were insp;red to do s. by the feeling Of
religious deNoticn.

are many from the Philippines and

OTHER TEACHERS
Elected at the Session of the Board OF
Regents of the Normal schools.

In addition to the names Of teach
ers elected in the Normais and given
in this paper yesterday there were
three other elections. Lorain Fort
ney of West Liberty was made first
assistant at Fairmont, Miss Olive
Ross. sister Of the late Prof. NJ. NJ.
Ross was elected to place in the
Fairmont school and Miss Pharnle
link was made permanent instruc-
tor at Chenille.
The Fairmont people do not like
many of the changes which have
been made and the new principal
and teachers will probably live hard
no matter what they may deserve.
