ACTIVITY AT BLAUVElT.

In the last six months the village OF
Blauvelt, n. Y, has seen more real estate
activity than IN It's entire previous exis-
tence. Part of this stimulus has been due
to the location there OF the new state rifle
range, now nearly completed, which Is
expected TO bring many thousands OF visit
ors each summer. but probably the most
important factor has been the opening up
by DR., F. II. Flagge, under the name OF

AS WOMEN WRITE LETTERS.

Women. Il is generally admitted. write
better letters than men. NJ Marcel Pre-
yost has learned the reason FOR this
superiority THE obvious meaning IL
never the one we should read into a wom-
ans letter. There is always a yelled mean
ing. Woman makes use OF "A letter Just as
abe employs a glance or smile, IN way
that is carefully thought out, and with
an eye TO effect. And. after ALL does a
woman's hat serve TO cover her head!
Does woman's parasol keep on the sun
Are A woman's shoes good for walking?
Why. then. should a womans letter serve
TO convey her real thoughts 10 the person
addressed, Just like the letters of some
honest grocer, who writes. / send you
ave mounds OF coffee because he really
does send you i've pounds OF coffee. -

IDLE WOMEN HINDER CHURCH
Missionary Worker Speaks Plainly
About Influence of Fashion.
SOCIAL CONDITIONS DEPLoRED
Miss Carrie Barge Delivers Interest
ing Address at University of
Omaha Missionary Confer
ence-Bryan Sunday.

Women of culture. leisure and influence
are doing more 10 hinder the progress Of
God than the red light district" said Miss
Carrie Barge at the missionary conference
at the University Of Omaha She said poor
people who could not afford to come TO
church dressed in silk like their rich neigh
bors. TO avoid the humiliation they would
suffer if they came poorly dressed. would
either stay away from church OF so TO
any extreme to get clothes TO compare
with those worn by their neighbors.
Miss Barge, whose talk was on the church
and social conditions, said that unless the
feeling OF superiority was done away with
in the church, 1t could not make much
progress.
Miss Barge said that the social condition
Of the majority of the people in the coun-
try was very bad. The working class could
very seldom give its children a good educa
ton. AS soon as they grow into their
teens they are put to work in the fac
tories, where they usually stay all their
life. working six days week. On Sundays,
instead Of worshiping God. they usually
spend the day at some resort She said
religious holidays have become com
mercialized. and instead Of spending these
/ days as Willed by the church, they are
spent in pleasure and amusement.
Miss Isabelle Horton gave a short talk
| on missionary work in the cities, stating
the work as necessary there as in pagan
countries. She said the churches are NOV
| ing out Of the crowded districts and the
/ foreigners are moving in. There being no
churches, missionary work is as needful
there as any place else.
For holders Of tickets to Missionary sum-
J mer school. being held at the University,
the seats in the middle rows al the Metho-
dist Episcopal church will be reserved until
! : 80 p. m. for the address which William
Jennings Bryan will deliver at the mass
