Women'5 Large Hats
Keeps Men From Hi,
Church, Pastor Say!

HOLLAND, Mich, Dec. 11.-Rev
John A. Wander Meulen, pastor oil
Hope church, the leading church here
and a member Of the faculty Of Hope
college, announced that hereafter the
ladies of his congregation must re
move their hats while In attendance
at the services.
II have found" said Mr.. Wander
meuler. that the large hats worn by
the women constitute serious draw
back to the development OF the
church; men stay away from the ser.
vices largely on account OF them, and
their influence Is otherwise detri'
mental"
The pastor announced that those
having religious scruples against re-
moving their headgear in places OF
worship will be accommodated with
seats in the rear OF the auditorium or
at the outside ends OF the side pews.

PUBLIC APOLOGY
MADE IN CHURCH

MEMPHIS. Tenn, Dec. 1i.-Church-
goers harked back to the days when
sinners wore sackcloth and ashes. and
walked on their knees or knelt In
front Of a church as a penannce for
sins committed, when two women
made public apology in St. Peters Ro-
man Catholic church at z o'clock mass
for having given scandal. They were
Mrs. d. r. Reilly and Mrs. S. J. Shep-
perd and were married out of the
church. The ceremonies united them
with non-Catholic husbands and were
performed by DR.. Louis Powell and q
local magistrate.
In the two instances recorded the
women failed to comply with any of
the Catholic laws and were excommu-
nicated. After mass they wished to
have the accommodation sentence
raised, and in order to do so stood In
pew near the altar and made public
apologies. Only one other public apol-
ogy has been made In Tennessee Cath
ole churches, as far as the records
show.

charged
Four police officers were sworn
Patrolmen Phelps, Vandebogart and
Lieut.. Hudson.
Officer Phelps was the first to dis
cover evidence indicating something
stirring inside the saloon, which was
In total darkness, after hours, and re-
port the matter to Lieut. Hudson, who
proceeded at once TO the scene OF the
alleged offense, where he also heard
the noise inside. Both or them testi-
fed TO hearing voices, one sounding
like that OF a woman. the clinking OF
glasses and the sound OF footsteps on
the floor. When they shook the doors
the noise within subsidized. and there
after all was still They couldn't see
into the place, as the lights were out.
Now, Mr.. Miller" asked Attorney
Noon as he assumed a reclining pos
ture I'm his chair. IF there was any
noise in the saloon. like the clinking
OF glasses, as has been testified 10
here by the police, can you explain
how that might have happened"
Yes" replied Miller. I'VE have on
an average there OF from IS TO 20
rats that run all around inside the
place nights"
Pronounced smiles were noticed
playing on the countenances of some
Of the. jurors. The judge had dimcul-
~ in suppressing smile. and some
in the audience laughed aloud.
Does the rise and fall of the river
affect the number Of rats that invade
the placer" again asked Mr.. Noon.
Attorney Henigan, who acted as
prosecutor, thought the question was
leading.
"Oh, yes. When the river is high
the rats are thicker" answered Mil
Ter, before the court had time to rule.
do those rats laugh and talk like
human beings!" asked Mr.. Henigan,
who that time cut In on Mr.. Noon.
Then everybody laughed.
The Judge inquired II the rats were
addicted to the use Of intoxicating
beverages. but Miller would not ven
ture reply as to their degree Of tenn
perance. He declared they were ca
pable Of creating lot Of noise, and
with their long tails could make quite
racket among the glasses IL they
chose.
