Frank Mofatt Hogue.

Early on the morning of April 20,
1911, in Clinton, La, the spirit OF Frank
Moffatt Hogue, son of ]. H. and Jemi-
ma Moffatt Hogue, left the sufferings
of this world together with its bless
ings and many pleasant associations
with which he was surrounded and took
its flight back to the God who gave it.
Neither tears nor longings nor medical
aid nor prayers could hinder, he must go.
Frank was born May 2, 1880. Con-
fessed his faith in his Savior and Joined
the A. r. P. Church in Troy, Tenn, at
about the age of sixteen years and ever
after lived consistent christian life,
honoring God as best he thought he
could in word, deed and action.
June 1, 1904, he married Miss Angie
Manaker, OF Clinton, La. Since that
time three delightful children-J w,
Coma May and Evelyn-have come to
bless their already happy home, and
twas for their sakes that he prayed
most faithfully to live.
II Frank was ever guilty OF an un-
principled act, no one knew it. From
infancy he was taught those great spir-
itual truths which go to make the fun
damental elements necessary to a we'll
rounded, well developed, christian citi-
zen--and that he was.
Now that we know that he lives that
fuller life for which he had already pre-
pared, should we mourn as those who
hope not? His being just over there
should make heaven all the more real

to us who are only just over here.
Let me say to his mother who suffers
as only a mother can, Frank is not
dead; he lives more surely than you
or /. To the devoted little wife whose
heart is so sadly broken, look to God
who alone can heal every heart break.
To the loving brothers and sisters, grieye
not, for methinks could he speak to us
to-day from glory he'd say the same.
While our hearts are heavy and sad
and his absence so keenly felt, let us
remember that God lives and knows
and loves. A COUSIN.

MARQUIsETTE WAISTS.

Waists OF cotton Marquisette in peas
ant cut have more or less elaborate pat
terms embroidered on the goods. Some
times just simple design at the top and
sleeve ends, but often very elaborate
banded pattern done in heavy padded
embroidery and the large French knots
that so successfully initiate beaded eff
fects. Coral and blue, and yellow, with
black outlining the figures are often used
together, but very pretty waists come in
two color tones for those who find the
Russian combinations garish. Cluny
and Irish laces and headings are used
with these waists, and the girl clever with
her needle can get up stunning bodices

GRADUATION FRocKs.


Many Of the prettiest frocks to be worn
for graduation this year will be made Of
this same material embroidered in white
or in delicate pinks or blues or lavendar.
One Of the freaks OF the years fashions
is the way the young girls have adopted
the lilac and purple tints that were form
erly relegated to older women. The
hat of purple straw with garland OF
lilacs with deep tinted rose nestled here
and there, and an outstanding loop or
velvet lined with rose color, is very much
seen, and goes well with navy blue or
black and white costumes.

BILL FOR SUBWAY
MEETS APPROVAL
Many Hail Sherrerd Suggestion
for Legislation as Most
Progressive Step.

With the cost of a Market street
subway estimated at q million and
thrco-quarters. prominent Newarkers
declared today that it will be only a
short time before operations are COM
menced and the relief of congestion at
the -Four Corners will be relieved.
Chief Engineer Morris r. Sherrerd's
statement that Newark should seek
subway legislation so that 1t may have
the right to construct the underground
railway when the city's needs demand
the Improvement is hailed as the most
campaign.
Mr.. Sherrerd is of the belief that
the city officials will be just as care
full in coping with the problems after
such legislation is effected as they
are now. He believes that the money
of the taxpayer will be held in just
as high a regard after this law is
passed as it is now, and that %rerouting
of trolleys and other suggested rene
dies viii be experimental with even

subways.
Both Mr.. Sherrerd and Frank ].
Book approve of the short subway from
the Market street station of the Penn
sylvania railroad to somewhere near
the Court House.
Among the most prominent persons,
up to date. who urge hat subways be
built are Mayor Jacob Haussling,
Thomas N. McCarter, president of the
Public Service Corporation; William
Mungle, president of the Board of
Works; Chief Engineer Sherrerd and
Frank ]. Book.
There is every indication hat the
public meeting on the question Janu-
airy 4 will be well attended and that
this meeting will be the f%orerunner of
a series of others.
Moses Plaut, OF L.. S. Plaut & Co.,
when asked today to give his views on
the subject said:
81 believe that meetings on the ques-
ton are a good thing, but / do not
think w need subways yet. 1t is pos
sible to reroute the trolley lines and
relieve the present congestion of traffic
in that way. The MCGOWAN bill, if
passed, will solve the problem for a
long time to come. The abandonment
of the Morris canal is also likely at
this time, and the canal bed could be
used for a short line.
1--WE must be careful about putting
the city into debt. Let us do the best
we can with what we have. | do not
believe in anticipating the probable
needs of the city, and therefore do not
favor legislation permitting Newark to
underground high-speed lines
until we are actually ready for them"

Edison to Take
Film Fight to
Supreme Court

In his fight for control of the moving
picture business in this country,
Thomas a. Edison will probably TAKE
his test case against the Motion Pic
ture Patents Company and the Chicago
Film Exchange to the Supreme Court
of the United States.
If he is finally successful the Motion
Picture Patents Company. of which he
owns half the stock, will obtain at
least $4,000 additional revenue a week.
The presiding judge of the Supreme
Court of the District of Columbia, how
ever. has notified the two defendant
companies that he would give a YER
dict in their favor. Mr.. Edison has
thus lost the first step in his fight.
The wizard bases his struggle for
moving picture supremacy upon pat
ents which are claimed to be infringed
by all firms using perforated films
without paying a royalty to the Motion
Picture Patents Company.
