The sleeves of the most dressy waists

cap and close fitting undersleeve of
sheer material, usually the same as

braiding and embroidering are used
around the outline of the yoke and the
edge of the cap sleeve
Long coats of plush or fur are just
as popular this season as they have
been for several years. Plain large
buttons form the principal trimming,
with perhaps a collar of contrasting
fur. The skirts are narrow.

lace make a modish millinery combi-

WHY Woodrow Wilson Shaved.

AS is well known, Woodrow Wilson
has clean shaven face But it was
not always thus. Once when DR.. Will
son was a young lawyer pleading 6
cause in North Carolina court he per-
cefved that his most attentive listener
was the sheriff of the county, who sat
with his feet in the stove and with his
eyes on the attorney. The young adj
vocate was greatly encouraged by the
interest manifested by so distinguished
an officer and was encouraged to in
crease his efforts still further to en-
chain the attention of that auditor
When he had finished his address with
a rounded period of glowing eloquence
he stepped toward the sheriff to re-
ceive his encomiums. 1t was a dread
full shock to him when that official
drawled out, "Say, Wilson, do you
know that one Of your side whiskers is
shorter than the other?" The future
president of Princeton was so disgust
ed that he shaved off his beard.-New

chair. Report No. IL OF the COM
mittee OF revisals, suggesting the
change of name from the Metho-
dist Episcopal church, south, to the
Methodist church was taken from

was also submitted which asked that
the name of the church be left UNI
changed.
Gray haired veterans of years SER
vice in the church pleaded for the
retention of the name under which
they declared the church had grown
great. Several logical arguments
were made by delegates from the
west who declared that the work of
their pastors in the west was greatly
hampered by the word "sonth" at
tached to their church. The de-
bate was interrupted TO hear the fra

among other things declared that
no intelligent negro expected or ev-
en- desired social equality.
After considerable discussion, the
report of the majority, recommend
ing that the name be changed was
adopted. This means that the
