PAGE TALKS ON RELIGION
AUTHOR GIVES VIEWS TO MEMS
EPISCOPAL CLUB.
Declares That Churchmen Should Do
More to Welcome Stranger
Within Their Gates.

The awakening of the missionary spirit
in the Episcopal Church was urged by
Thomas Nelson Page, author. in an ad-
dress before the Mems Club of Christ
Episcopal Church. Georgetown, in Poto-
mac Savings Bank Hall last night. Mr..
Page pointed to the splendid work of the
laymens missionary movement and called
the attention of his hearers to the fact
that the time is now ripe for the Episco-
pal Church to make greater effort to bring
within the sound of the gospel those who
at present take very little interest in the
church or its work. The momentum,
gained by the laymen's missionary move
ment. he said, showed plainly what can
be done when men rally to the effort
which has for its object the bringing of
men TO Christ.
He declared that the Episcopal
churchmen of today should do more to
welcome the stranger within their
gates than they are doing at the pres
leaders in some of the fashionable Epis-
copal churches of the city, and declared
that in his estimation they should be-
stir themselves and make their well
at the present time. He said nothing
goes farther to bring a man into the
church membership than a cordial wei

ciared. when he is ripe to receive the
true spirit of Christian fellowship, and

diality at this, the great opportunity
for the Christian to aid his fellow-man
along the road to salvation.
He stated that at the last general con-
vention of the Episcopal Church many i'm
portant subjects were considered, but the
churchmen failed to make inquiry why
the Episcopal Church fails to reach the
great mass of the people in this country.
This matter. he predicted. will be taken
up at the next general convention and be
discussed at great length. why should
we spend time tinkling with canOns, he
said when this great work for our fell
low-man is before us? We should surely

| of Christianity to our brothers rather

presided over the meeting and introduced
Mr. Page, who was accorded a most
| cordial reception.
Near the close of the meeting a resolu-
| ton asking Congress to- pass the Sunday
closing bill was introduced and passed
unanimously.

GatcheITS Style Center of the World.
Talk

The National Convention of
Tailors has just closed its an
nual convention at the Hotel
Aston, New York city.
Following are personal OBJ
servations of Mr.. Gatchell-
fashion notes that will be of
interest to all Washingtonians:
Everywhere was evidence of a radi.
cal departure in almost every line and
feature. Broad shoulders give way
to natural shoulders. Full-pegged
trousers are modified to trace the fig
ure. With this departure comes the
test of designing skill. Our Mr.. Van
doren is an expert in the delineation
of these very features.
Distinctive styles from the conven-
ton:
The new Dinner Coat has Prussian
collar instead Of the oldtime fiat col
lar novelty, but sensible novelty
that "smacks'' of good form.

spring should have a long roll and
two buttons. Wear with it q fancy
waistcoat, and trousers to match the
coat. or one of the many neat striped
effects. Particularly must they be
form-fitting-26 inches at the thigh.
II inches at the knee and 16 inches at
the bottom. Either plain black or
"Gatchell Smoke" Is the permissible
cloth for coat and trousers.
For morning or dressy business wear
the two-button Getaway FTock, with
pocket flaps at the waist line, will be
preferred: and the model is a hand

worsted Of check pattern.
The ideal Sack Suit is Gatchell's
BOARD Walk" twO-button double
breasted coat. with cuff-bottom. trou-
sers and fancy waistcoat. We advise
the cuff bottoms because they are
more practical in the spring weights
and worn with low shoes. The exhi-
bition suit is made of Scotch worsted,
with broken plaid. We can show you
a hundred splendidy designed fabrics
for this particular style.
The Single-breaSted Sack Suit, the
suit of convenience. has many distinc-
tive features marking its modelling:
the collar roll is moderately long. the
lapel rather wide, and the cut of the
coat a trifie shorter than heretofore.
The model has two buttons. and is
made up in a rich Sea-green shade,
with pencil stripe pattern of lighter
toned shade, It's style that will ap-
peal especially to the snappy dresser,
because 1t Is full of character and
modishness.
Color tones: The convention unani-
mously said grays-plain grays. gray

will be worn, but when the season Is
older. You are sure to be right IN

We're going to have the next con-
vention right here in Washington.

ASKS AID OF CITIZENS.
Census Head Declares Facts Given
Will Be Kept Secret.

VIII DC Ncpt SeCrets
Washington, March 14.-In order 20
correct erroneous popular opinions IN
regard to the purpose and use of the
census data collected decennially by
the national government. Dr. Durand
of the bureau of the census has issued
an appeal to public spirited citizens in
voking their cooperation i'm setting
forth the facts.
The chief difficulty encountered IN
procuring the statistics. as shown in
the appeal, is the belief of many per-
sons that their answers to the enum-
orators questions might cause increas-
ed taxation. legal entanglements or in
furious consequences to their persons
or property.
The directors statement contains the
assurance that all information given
the enumerators is held by the CEN
sus bureau i'm the strictest confidence,
with reference to the identity of the
informants. as required by the policy
of the bureau and commanded by the
law of the United States.
Mr.. Durand explains that the law
prescribes penalties for those who re-
fuse to answer questions or who give
false replies.
The appeal has been sent to clergy
men. priests physicians, school teach
ers. employers and Others with the
purpose OF enllsting their aid in quiet
ing fears.

GAINS TRADE IN
SOUTH AMERICA
Average Annual Business is Now
Reported at Over Half Bill
lion Dollars.
ALMOST DOUBLE DECADE AGO
Figures are Encouraging to Interna-
tional Bureau Which is Factor in
Advancing Trade Between
Countries.

Washington, ID. c., March 14.-Ten
years has brought the average annual
trade between the United States and
S520,000.000 from $2S4,00O,000. The
average was taken for three years
1897. 1898 and 1S99-and again for the
years 1907, 1908 and 1909. The increase
is nearly s225,OOO.OOO.
During the first three years the aver
age of exports from this country TO
those republics was only $4,000, 900, or
but little more than one fourth of the
total trade. DurinS the latter three
years the exports were 1920, 900. 900. al
most one-half, and i'm the intervening
10 years the exports from the United
States to South America showed an
increase of nearly 200 per cent, an ag-
gregate increase of more than $780,
10000 ~
These facts were used recently by
Representative James b. Perkins Of
New York. in the House, as an argu-
ment in favor OF liberal support of the
International Bureau of American Re-
publics. which he alluded to as one Of
the most useful agencies in bringing
about this increase of trade. The ex-
penses of the bureau are paid by
agreement between the South Ameri-
can republics and the United States
These payments are made i'm proper
ton to population. tn total expense
having been about 100000. according
to Mr.. Perkins, Of which the United
States gave $4,000 and the other
countries made up the remainder.
The bureau is constantly increasing
its field of activity and the running
expenses necessarily increase. The
international conference meets this
year in July and IT is the expectation
that the contributions of the al i:erent
governments will then be readjusted,
and upon the proportion OF $4,000
contributed by this government the
contributions from the South American
states will amount to about 100000.
