KENTUCKY GIRLS IDEA.

Rer GuHKestton For Homecoming
Week Adopted BY Louisv1llc Club.
Who suggested homecoming week?
As the reunion Of all Kentuckians
draws nearer and the magnitude Of the
undertaking becomes more and more
apparent, this question constantly re-
ours, and the answer is-Miss Louise
Lee Hardin, says the Louisville Cou-
rier-Journal. .-,..:~:< =:
Miss Hardin Is. one Of Kentucky's
daughters whose brains and energy
have made her one Of the most promi-
nent club women In the United States.
She is at the head Of Eeveral women's
examinations, is the editor Of a pro-
Rressive menthly magazine and is vice
president Of the Kentucky Society OF
Denver, which is now her home. :: :
It was during the early part Of July,
1905, that Miss Hardin, then OF a visit
to Louisville, called up R. E: Hughes,
secretary Of the Commercial club, and
suggested homecoming week. 1t was
her first visit to Kentucky for long
time, and 80 over1oyed was sne 10 De

pleasant did she find the renewal Of
it's associations, that she could not re-
sist the desire to do something to bring
the other Kentuckians back for a few
days at least.
When she called up the Commercial
club Miss Hardin explained her rea-
sons for calling Mr.. Hughes and asked
If the Commercial club would not un-
dertake to arrange a meet Of distin
guished Kentuckians who had won
fame and fortune outside. Of It's bor-
ders. Mr. Hughes suggested that the
invitation be more general and, being
much impressed with the idea, request

could be read to the directors Of the
club setting forth her plans in order
that it might be formally acted upon by

EXPERT TO INVESTIGATE.

Scientist Will Observe Earthquake
Results on Masonry Structures.
In order to Investigate the effect OF
the earthquake shocks in San Francis
co on concrete and other structural ma
terials, Director C. W. Walcott Of the
geological survey has ordered R. L.
Humphrey, expert in the structural
materials testing laboratory Of st.
Louis, to proceed to California, says
the Washington Post.
Owing to the possibility Of similar
seismic occurrences in portions Of the
west in which the reclamation service
is constructing great masonry dams
and structures Of concrete a careful in
vestigation Of the effects Of the recent
earthquake will doubtless afford much
valuable information.

Dividing the Horses

A certain merchant of Bagdad left
in his last will and testament seven.
teen horses to be divided among bis
three sons, according to the following
roportions-namely:- The first was to
receive one-half. the second one-third
and the youngest one-ninth part Of the
whole but when they came to arrange
about the division it was found that to
comply with the terms Of the will with
out sacrificing one or more Of the ami
mails was impossible.
Puzzled In the extreme, they repaired
to the cadi, who, having read the will.
said that such a difficult question re-
uuired time for deliberation and rec
commended them to return in two days.
When they again made their appear

that can make such a division Of the
seventeen horses among you as VIII

and yet not one of the animals shall be
injured. Are you content?'
1--WE are, O cadiv' was the reply.
Bring forth the seventeen horses
and let them be placed in the court
yard" said the cadi.
The animals were brought in, and
the cadi ordered the groom to place bis
own horse with them. He then bade
the eldest brother to count the horses.
There are eighteen in number. o

You, the second son, are to receive one

ODD AUTO BED DESIGN.

Indiana Student Rides on Seven
Headed, Ten Horned Leopard.
In the building Of the bed Of his au-
tomobile that Benjamin Lukens Of An
derson, Ind, has brought out for the
season he cast aside all the customary
styles of the front, end or dashboard
Of the machine bed and substituted 1t
with a combination animal that he
whitfield out after getting the sugges-
tion from the vision Of John on the
Isle of Patmos, as told in the thirteenth
chapter of Revelations, as follows, says
g special dispatch from Anderson, Ind,
20 the St. Louis Post-Dispatch:
"And I stood upon the sand Of the
sea and saw beast rise up out Of the
sea having seven heads and ten horns,
and upon his horns ten crowns, and
upon his heads the name Of Blasphemy.
And the beast which / saw was like q
leopard, and his feet were as the feet
of bear, and his mouth as the mouth
Of lion."
Mr.. Lukens carved out the wooden
form of leopard and had it spotted
leopard fashion. He surmounted 1t
with seven heads Of strange animals,
arranged in a circle. Ten horns act
as the back Of a chair, and the crowns
are on the guard rail Of chair which
Is intended for Mr.. Lukens' dog. The
new machine is painted bright yellow
except for the combination animal
front, which is in brown, yellow and
black.
Mr.. Lukens is a Bible student Of
more than local celebrity.

A Pastors FIaA TO Enable Mothers to
Attend Services.
Rev. FiniS Idlenlan, pastor Of the
Christian church in Paris. ILL.,. and one
Of the most progressive ministers N
the city, recently put into practice a
plan whereby mothers may come to
church on Sunday and bring all the
children and not be caused any worry
through fear that during the service

says a Paris correspondent Of the St

He has secured the services Of Miss
Rachel E. Bremmenan Of Bloomington,
ILL.,, one Of the best kindergarten teach
ers in the state. who, with the assist
ance of q few Of the women Of the
church, has fitted up room in the rear
Of the edifce, where the children are
taken during the progress Of the serV>
ices and taught as they would be IN
Kindergarten.
Miss Bremmenan says she will make
her end Of the work so attractive and
profitable that the children will beg to
be allowed to attend the kindergarten
SESSIONS. Thus the parents Of the lit.
tie ones will not only have no excuse
for not going to church and their chill
dren's pleadings will supply an addi-
tonal incentive for their attendance.
The kindergarten is only for the chill
dren who are accompanied to church
by their parents.

that have been wardc1 off by our

Was there ever such capital for
starting in business for oneself as

who are now successful have given up
the struggle in some great crisis ct
their lives but for the encouragement
Of some friend which has tided them

Jacques
VAUDEVILLE.

One of the most entertaining bills of the season is at the Jacques this week. With Milton and Dolly Noble as the headliners. Mir and Mrs Noble are both finished artists and had years of experience on the legit- innate stage before going into vaude- vile. They appear in laughable little playlet called Why Walker Reformed" and have made big hit. The Sisters Meredith as the added feature have established themselves with their beautiful act. It is one of many changes of costumes and scenery and the two soubrettes ap- pear in the dancing costumes of many countries. They made the song Hiawatha famous and this sea- son feature Laughing Water. Their Spanish dances and songs are especially attractive. Willie Weston is the best imitator that has appear ed here and gets several encores at each performance Henry and Francis are funny bit of comedy in His Last Rehearsal" and the Avon Comedy Four furnishes plenty of comedy of the broader type. Bo Peep and her performing sheep close the show. It is the only troupe of trained sheep in the world and last season was with the Barnum & Bai- ley circus. Popular prices.

 French women delight in wearing the ligther shades of mink with a black dress. One very handsome French woman, visiting in Washing ton. wore a light brown mink coat with a gown of black satin and a pic ture hat of black with spreading plumes. There was tiny bit of pink embroidery upon the collar and cuffs of the coat. and her muff was lined with pink.
