Such was the sense expressed at
the meeting held in Penn college chap
81 on Friday and attended by about
forty delegates from the fourteen
Quarterly Meetings of Friends. But
this does not tell OF the good that was
wrought, or OF the determination eX
pressed to raise the 1928 ,0G0 addition
al endowment which Penn college
needs and must have to come up to
the standards fixed by the State Edn-
catiOnal Council. No expression was
asked of those present as to what each
one was willing TO do, but every one
pledged himself 10 do his full share
and to act as committee of one to
interest Friends everywhere in the
good work which is to be started at
once. And while no outline of the
plans We're laid down, the suggestion
met with favor, that of the $l25,0OD
to be raised, the citizens of Oska-
lOOsa, local members of the Friends
church, should provide another S25,-
900, and that the Iowa Yearly Meeting
as whole should care for the remain
ing $4,000.
The words "if'' and cant" were
eliminated from the field and the de-
termination to succeed was indelibly
written on every standard. The
meeting in all ways was considered
the most suspicious one of like char
acter ever held, and it marked the
dawn of a new era for Penn.
The afternoon session opened with
music by Quartette comprising AL
exander Purdy, Mr.. Coffin and the
Misses Hollingsworth and Willis. De.
yotional exercises were led by Rev.
Purdy. Rev. w. J.. Hadley, of Mar
shalltOwn, superintendent of pastoral
work OF the Yearly Meeting, told"Why
We Need Penn College" He said the
question was best answered by the
demand that is made for Penn college
men and women.
The financial rating of Iowa Yearly
Meeting was discussed informally but
in most convincing way by William
Mather, of Springdale, Iowa. The
Plan of Campaign" was outlined in a
happy vein by ]. p. Bruif, of Atlantic,
the president of the Board of Trustees

me-not, appear in millinery of the
highest class.
But of all flower decorations, the
roses, made of satin and metal tissues
combined (cleverly fashioned by fold
ing the material about form, or by
making separate petals} have proved
the most distinctive and beautiful.
They make one think of brilliant
winter sunset. Gold, silver and cop
per tissues, in bright or oxidized fin
ish, plain or figured surfaces, are COM
bined with satin in any rich color that
harmonizes best with them.
These made roses are not confined
to millinery at all They are made in
effective bouquets for the corsage, and
in pompons or wreaths for the hair,
and appear on the shirt draperies
where these are caught up or fas-
tened to the shirt A bouquet of chit
fon roses and tiny buds of chiffon
make an exquisite garniture for the
bodice. The foliage for all these fab
ric flowers is also made OF the fabric

small and inconspicuous. stems are OF

DETAILS OF THE TOILETTE
Accessories Have Great Dea. to Do
With smartness Of General
Effect.

The details and the accessories Of a
toilette often mean its smartness. Just
now there is great tendency toward
the use OF wide collars, and often
these collars are in sailor shape at tho
back extended to form revers at the
front that reach quite to the belt. New
ones are made Of black satin and de-
signed to be worn over white or col
Ored blouses.
Simulated boleros are among the
latest developments Of dressy COS
tunes and numbers of new gowns are
made with trimming so manipulated
that 1t falls loosely over the high Cir
die giving the bolero suggestion. Smart
ones are edged with gold and bead
fringe not more than an inch in width
and the effect is exceedingly attractive.
It has been said again and again that
the genuine boleros viii make a fea-
ture of mid-winter and early spring
and it is likely that these suggested
ones are forerunners of the incoming
style, but In any case they are pretty
and attractive and very generally be-
coming.
All sorts of new materials are used
for the making Of blouses to wear with
tailored suits, but the latest is all
over cotton embroidery in eyelet de-
sign, dyed to match the costume, made
over soft silk which may be in
matching color or of contrast as best
suits the special costume. A lovely
gray one seen recently is made over
pale pink silk yelled with chiffon and
the result is fascinating In the ex-
treme.

qner Medical science has proven it
not distinct disease In itself, but q
symptom caused by inactive kidneys.
rheumatism is uric acid in the blood
and other waste products of the sys-
tenn which should be filtered and
strained out in the form Of urine The
function Of the kidneys Is to sift these
poisOns and acids out and keep the
blood clean and pure. The kidneys
however, are of sponge-like substance,
the holes or pores of which will some
times, either from overwork, cold or
exposure become clogged, and falling
in their function of eliminating these
poisons from the blood, they remain
in the veins, decompose and settling
about the joints and muscles, cause
the untold suffering and pain Of rheu
matism and backache, often producing
complications Of bladder and urinary
disease, and general weakness.
The following simple prescription Is
said to relieve the worst cases OF
rheumatism because of its direct ac-
tion upon the blood and kidneys, re-
lieving. too, the most severe forms Of
bladder and urinary troubles: Fluid
Extract Dandeliop, one-half ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com

RED CROSS SEAL IN HISTORY
First Used During the American Civil

ing tuberculosis.

Red Cross Christmas seals date
back in their origin to charity
stamps" FIRST used for the soldiers,
relief funds in Boston in 1862, during
the Civil war. After the war, this
method OF raising money was discon-
tnued in this country for genera
ton, although it found vogue in Por-
tugals Switzerland, Australia, France,
Spain. Denmark, Norway, Russia,
Sweden and other European coun-
tries. There are now several hun
ared different types of charity stamps
used in all parts Of the world.
Stamps or seals were first used to
get money for the anti-tuberculosis
crusade in Norway and Sweden In
1904 After being used in these coun-
tries for three years, as direct re-
suit of the interest OF Jacob Riis In
this movement, the Delaware Anti
Tuberculosis association, headed by
Miss Emily r. Bissell, and the Red
Cross society Of Delaware combined
IN issuing tuberculosis stamp. So
successful was this campaign that
nearly 90,UVV Was IediL1eu, anu the
next year, in 1908, the American Red
Cross was induced to issue national
Red Cross tuberculosis stamp. From
this sale. $135,00e was realized, that
amount being almost doubled in 1909
This year, for the first time, the sale
is organized on comprehensive
basis, taking in all parts of the
United States. A million for tuber-
culosis work is confidently expected.

Benevolence is a great thing. When
you have benevolence you cannot rest
until you do something to make other
people feel grateful to you The other
day my mamma went up into the attic
to find a lot Of old clothes to give
to poor people who could not afford to
buy any clothing for themselves.
While she was hunting around she
found goid-headed cane worth s25
that grandpa had put up there Is
years ago, and forgot all about. Thus
we see. dear friends, benevolence
brings It's own reward. Benny.
