tions were unanimously adopted:
Whereas, The removal of the Rev.

New Church Society OF Indianapolis; there
fore, be IL

citation of the devoted and Jealous work
done by Mr.. Gladish for the upbuilding and
unifying OF the society, their recognition or
his vigorous and logical exposition of the
doctrines of the New Church. and their
testimony to his absolute singleness of pur-
pose and unswervfng loyalty in declaring
the truth as he saw 1t.
Resolved, further. That the said men,
bers cordially reciprocate the kindly Solici-
tude for their personal welfare, temporal
and eternal, ever manifested by both Mr..
and Mrs. Gladish, and that their affection

ANNIVERSARY OF CHURCH
THREE SERVICES HELD BY SEVENTH
CHRISTIAN CONGREGATION.
Rev. ID. n. Lucas Congratulated for
His Success with His Passionate
Assisted by other Minister'S

The congregation of the Seventh Christian
Church held echo services all day yester-
day. The church, a handsome structure.
was built five years ago. and yesterday was
the anniversary of the dedication. Each
year on this date the congregation holds
what is called an echo OF dedication"
Three services were held yesterday. In the
morning at 1880 the Rev. d. r. Lucas. the
pastor, preached on the subject. Church
Fellowship" In the afternoon at O'Clock
there was a union meeting. with short ad-
dresses by different city pastors. There

avenue Christian Church; the Rev. b. l..
Allen. of the Morris-street Christian Church:
the Rev. Austin Hunter. of the North Park
Christian Church. and the Rev. Walter Car
penter. OF Olive Branch Christian Church.
DR.. Lucas was. OF course. present. and pre-
sided.
The pastors all congratulated the congre-
CATION on having so fine and comfortable .
building for worship. and. best of all. in
having a preacher like DR.. Lucas. II have
known him long time. said one OF the
speakers. "snd the best thing / know about
him is that he breaches the gospel"
At the afternoon services Trustees A n.
Gauld. S. 8. Moore and z. f. Shelton made
their report Of the finances of the church.
Ii has but one large debt, and this Is ESQ.
secured by mortgage held by Butler Uni
vcrsity. Five years ago the congregation
started out without funds. and at a cost Of
5000 erected the church building at Udell
and Annette streets. Year by year the
deb: is being reduced. IL was announced
yesterday that $3.50 should be raised 10 pay
off some interest and minor Indebtedness.
Before the day was over the sum was prac-
tically raised by cash and pledges. Among
the earnings Of the church this year was

Your Cut Glass.
New York Evening Post.

New York Evening Post.
Few people know how to care for the
beautiful cut glass in their possession, and
it is usual for 1t to lose much of its original
color and lustre. Carafes and bottles are
especially neglected, being most difficult to
clean. A medium stiff brush should be
kept for scrubbing the pieces. and a little
intelligence used in handling them Unless
there is prejudice against having poisons
of any kind in the house-and that is a
very sensible prejudice-keep a little bottle
of muriatic acid hand. Potato parings
are almost as good for cleaning inside of
bottles. etc. Never plunge cut glass into
very hot or very cold water. never set il
on marble or in "A draught after washing.

break neatly in two when n cold draught

Detroit Journal.
The kangaroo walk and the Gibson shoul-
ders are doomed" said Nine. Lucy Baker
president of the National Dressmakers' As
ISOLATION, last evening.
'"right-fitting waists with sloping shoul-
ders and straight fronts are to do away
with the loose pouch fronts, which set off
the kangaroo walk. and also with the
square Gibson shoulders of the military
girl" she continued. 1.-The coats and waists
with long. sloping shoulders and broad belts
make the figure look smaller. The French
styles are so tight that the bust is made
to look small. but the American women
won't adopt that style. They dress to please
the mon."
High heels. peek-a-boo waists. and perox-
ide hair go together" was a declaration of
Nine. Baker that caused a shiver Of horror
to run through the 100 rural dressmakers
in the hail.
High heels were not made to walk on
They ruin the feet and figure and the per-
sons who wear them are disgusting. Don't
let any OF your customers wear them
Reverting to the topic of sloping shoulders
and their accompaniment, the speaker said:
There will be no more droop to the
figure Of the American woman. The new
style allows fuller bust and the corset
gives slope down to the waist line. A
woman with a large figure can wear such
a waist we'll. and even people with narrow
shoulders look we'll in them.
Full sleeves and broad belts are the
only other changes In style this year. The
sleeves take twice as much material as
suddenly at the waist. Many handsome
gowns have elbow sleeves" and Mme
Baker waved her diamond-becrusted fingers
and displayed two chubby forearms.
THE prices will be higher this year.
Materials are higher. and it will cost more
to get work DONE.

ALL SOULS CHURCH OPEN.
Rev. Elmer f. Newbert Returns After
PrOtracted Vacation.


All Souls Unitarian Church reopened
yesterday after the long summer vacation.
Rev. Elmer +. Newbert occupied his pull
pit. He had for his theme the Influence
of the Prophet" Among other things, he
said: THE prophet OF a new religious era
is never welcomed. The old way is best
says the devotee. The long familiar idea
must be truth. Why introduce anything
new? Why meddle at all with creeds? :?
Why should scholarship disturb us in long
accustomed beliefs about the Bible? Why
confuse US in our thought of Jesus? Or
why attempt to change the worlds idea
of God? The religious oevotee is mentally
lazy. 1t Is easy to accept without investi-
cation and to believe without thought The
devotee abhors the religious reformer He
scorns critical scholarship, inviting only
the supremacy of blind faith. And vet.
though not wanted the prophet of the soul
who suggests the larger faith is always
leading. Nothing is stationary but death
To be alive is to grow, and notwithstand-
ing all our prejudice and all our bigotry,
and all our stupid satisfaction with things
they are We do grow or we are led or
forced by the spirit of our age into the
way of the larger life of freedom The
religious world goes ahead. and after il
has moved we discover that it has gone
about as the prophet said Ii should GO The

fanatic the constructive thinker"

And, again. the Christian service of man

efforts OF Dilday and Carrican to control
him. ran away. He did not go far, how
ever, until the buggy struck a telephone
pole and the occupants were thrown out

flee OF himself, and only thus finally will
we win.
When, in our adherence TO high principle
we are prepared to sacrifice and to lose. do
we really have Christ i'm us? IL is sadly
possible to be an honored church member
in this so-called Christian age and yet to
be without Christ.
