Is the reason? Is 1t duty on clothes,

women's purchases abroad? Is 1t the
progressive spirit, which in America is
beginning to challenge everything?
Whichever 1t Is, and opinion is divid-
ed between the two, there Is certainly

American women talk about 1t more

Rochester, N. Y, Nov. 2I.--The adop.
don of the principle Of industrial
unionism went down to defeat by
decisive vote in the convention Of the
Americfsl Federation Of Labor. stormy
debates between Socialists ard these
supporting the administration again
marked the proceedings. A free-for-
all fight seemed imminent at one time
when James p. Egan, delegate of the
Ohio Federation Of Labor, member
Of the typographical union, character
1xed those who advocated Industrial
lsm as paper mache revolutiopists,
advocating free love and Fletcher
Ssm." The turmoil for a few minutes
following that attack, savagely made,
threatened to precipitate fight, but
ey effective action with the gavel
President Gompers gradually restored
Srder.
The Socialists made marked I'm
preston on the :pany visitors at the
convention by their argument for IN
dustrialism, and they we're ably sup
ported by a speech by John Mitchell
Of the United Mine Workers, second
vice president of the federation. Al
the conclusion of Mr.. Mitchell's talk
he was cheered by both factions.
Those favoring the craft union pol
icy were weak in argument on the
question at issue. but we're strong In
lnterjecting extraneous discussion
Delegate Egans remarks were char
acteristic OF similar attacks by Other
delegates.
The strongest argument against the
adoption of the industrial policy was
. talk made by President Gompers, In
which he said that the delegates
seemed to forget that the federation
was not the parent but the child oi
The unions; that its functions were
not to adopt policies to be accepted
by the individual unions. and that the
question Of industrialism should b'
left to the unions themselves to worl
out In their own way.

Large Rug Muffs Eclipse Owners.

Some Of the siolcs and muifs that

huge that they fairly eclipse slip Of

and then the addition Of huge neck
piece and muff, 10 say nothing Of an
alleclipsing hat, girl is completely

never have carried the big muffs and
neckpieces made Of long-haired furs
that are fashionable now without
bending under their weight But the
furrier has looked out for that, and
the biggest muff weighs scarcely as
much now as the little old-timer did.
One thing is practical about these
giant muffs. No ones arms are going
to suffer with cold while they have
such a shelter. The best OF these
muffs completely envelop the arms TO
the elbows, and the muff itself covers
the lap like a robe.

MUSIC Was feature
OF BAPTIST SERVICES
FLEsTER WEATHERWAx LEADS
CHOIR IN IMPRESSIVE
SONG SERVICE,

Music had 4 large place in the SER
vice of last evening at the First Zap
fist church. Mr.. Lester Weatherwax
was in charge and with the assistance
of a chorus that entirely filled the
choir loft he led the audience in a
most impressive song service. Mr..
WeatherwaX also rendered two beau
tiful solos which touched the hearts
of the congregation.
Last nights service was the begin.
ming of the second week of the cam.
paign and a marked increase of inter
est was manifested. Noon day prayer
meetins are being held by the men
and cottage prayer services by the wo-
men of the church. With the increase
of attendance and interest everything
indicates that the campaign will prove
a great blessing to the community.
Rev. A. E. peterson preached a pow.
erful sermon last night upon the
theme, "Sin-1t's Results and Cure"
With forceful logic and illustration the
speaker brought to the mind Of his
congregation the facts in regard to sin.
He dwelt upon the terrible reality of
sin, showing that it Is something
with which every man and woman has
to reckon. it is something that many
people do not like to think about, but
1t is a fact that sin is a great destroy.
ing agency at work in the world today.
