QUAKERS LOST GAME
Cincinnati Takes Their Scalp
by Score of 21-O.

In a game replete with fumbles by
the Quakers and of penalties imposed
on them for violations of the rules,
Earlham went down to defeat before
the Cincinnati University team Satur-
day in a game played there by the
score of 21-0.
Cincinnati succeeded in circling the
Earlham ends for substantial gains,
and after they had found this weak
ness in the Quaker defense used it to
success. Earlham was able to puncture
the Cincinnati line, but could not nego-
tate the distance often cough to place
the oval across the goal line
Once on the fve yard line the Qua
kers We're in a position to score, but
were penalized and before they could
regain the advantage time was called.

LROAOERS ARE
FORCED TO JUMP
Rear End Collision Smashes
Caboose into Kindling
and Buckles Gondola.

In the dense fog Sunday morning at
GAS O'Clock, second division of Penn
sylvania freight train No. IS crashed
into the first division train, held near
North West Second street from cross
ing the Whitewater bridge by an ad-
verse block of the r. 1. tower, smash

of the Olive Hill tower, who was rid
ing on the engine, jumped when they
saw their train would pillow into the
train ahead Clyde Brehm, flagman
of the first division train, had been
sent back by Conductor Herbert E
Druley to flag the oncoming second
division
With a clear block, said to have
been given him by the Olive Hill OPP
orator Engineer Root was sending his
train down the incline to the bridge
under good head of steam. Brehm
was either not far enough back or the
train was going too fast to stop before
the collision are the theories advanc-
ed as to the cause of the accident
Conductor Druley was sitting in the
caboose when he head the whistle of
the train and jumped in time to avoid
being ground to death.
The force of the collision telescopeG
the caboose, leaving it a mass of brok-
en- wood and twisted steel. The buck
ling of the heavy gondola car prevent
ed further damage to the train. The
defamation of the impact reused resi-
dents for blocks. The engine of the
second division escaped with little
damage. The headlight was torn from
it's fastenings, the smoke arch door
cracked and the pilot and buffer beam
were broken.
After the wrecking train cleared the
track. the two engines under their
own steam pulled their trains into the
yards.

SHOULD CHRISTIANS Be STYLISH
Or Should They Make 1t Point Go Round in Hit or
Miss Clothes and Throw Looks into the Discard?-
Do Dress and Religion Hang Together?

Paris gown or two and a seventy-fve
dollar hat Those back to nature men
are always hypnotized by the nifty
ones
yes, they never practice what they
preach"
Mary might be pretty if she'd fix
herself up"
"What-that ugly thing"
"Oh-she's not SO bad"
"If you're not particular"
ooh, well, girls, she's got a good
heart. She can't help her looks"
Such is the grilling they all get-all
grist for the clacking mill.
1t is true, however, that dress has
frequently sat cheek by jowl with re-
ligion.
Many religious sects and orders
have dictated the manner of dress of
their adherents.
The Society of Friends, in instance,
known as the Quakers.
Their style of habiliment was typical
originally, of the correctness and sim
picity of their faith.
And their sartorical customs of
their spiritual democracy
This was all we'll enough as long as
ner conviction.
But when it became a mere matter
of habit without meaning or other
reason for existence, it reduced itself
to an absurdity.
And that this has been recognized
is shown by it's almost entire aboli-
ton.
The writer remembers to have heard
her grandmother say that she regret
! ted nothing more than the fact that
she had been compelled to adopt this
style of dress when young and had 80
accustomed herself to it that she could
not discard it when she became older
That the Quaker bonnet was an
abomination.
That it was cold in winter, hot in
summer and ugly all the year round.
That the full skirts hampered bod
lily movement
And the white kerchiefs were hard
to keep clean.
Besides, said my grandmother in
effect, it robbed life of half it's pleas
ure. Took away it's variety. Insisted
on a rigidity of garb that was not nat
ural and, oftener than not, unbecom-
ing to the wearer
That there was no vivacity in the
changing seasons-for one wore the
same thing the year round.
That, in short, it became an unbear-
able tyranny.
Everyone recognizes the effect of a
uniform.
, All understand that the severe garb
/ of the nun is her protection.
That the habit of the Salvation Ar
my lassie is her shield.
! That the nurses dress IS her badge.
The psychology of clothes, indeed,
! is curious and interesting one, as
has been animadverted upon here be-
fore.
| Great writer's have made it the
theme of philosophical treatises.
| And it cannot be ignored by the gen.
eral.
, There is no superiority or especial
, virtue in refusing to conform to the
mode of the hour.
! Nobody is going to heaven any soon
er nor to the sulphurous regions any
! faster because they do or do not wear
| hobble skirts.
+ Christians should concern them
selves with the styles of the hour as
we'll as the barbarians who languish
| in outer darkness.
! They should do this-and then for
get it.
But you don't get any place any
sooner and, indeed, not half as soon.
by sneering at the styles
AS for Christians what they want to
do is to pay more attention to Chris
tianity.
! And styles will take care of them
selves.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE.

There are often strange things in
the papers.
In illustration.
The other day in communication
to state paper virtuous citizen,
while expostulating against the femi-
! nine styles of the hour said:
"a true Christian will not be guided
| by the dictates of fashion"
This is one of those curious pro-
| nouncements which may mean some
thing. And then nothing at all.
1t reminded the writer of some very
good women she once knew who dis
| carded corsets for the purpose of get
ting to heaven sooner than their err
! ing, if more heavily panoplied sisters.
1t reduces itself, in the final analy-
| sis. to what constitutes a Christian.
Some of the most detestable persons
the writer ever knew called themselves
| thus.
And indeed thought they were.
| Their idea of Christianity was to be-
long to a church, pray long and loud,
! contribute to the missionary fund and
denounce the ungodly.
The ungodly meant everybody who
didn't belong to their particular
| church or who refused to subscribe to
their creeds
On week days they would lie, cheat,
steal and be as mean as anybody else.
In fact they were doing this on Sun
day. Only they weren't conscious of
the fact.
For their very attitude toward God
and man was lie.
There is nothing more surprising
than the egotism of a set of human
beings who arrogate to themselves the
title of the chosen of God.
Who practically say you won't get
to heaven unless you go by our route.
And, despite the gradual oblitera-
ton of creedal lines and the demol-
ishment of religious traditions, there
is a lot of it still extant
Why is it wicked to dress Well and
an inevitable sign of exalted virtue to
look half seas over sartorially?
Yet it is fact that if you will fire.
quent conventions which concern
themselves with religions and kindred
subjects you will find the feminine ele-
ment lop-sided and sloppy about the
waist-line.
Clothes are not, to be sure, the man.
But so far as the general public is
concerned, they come pretty near be-
ing.
Most people are judged by exter-
nails.
When you hear lot of women end
up a talking jamboree with "yes, but
she's got a good heart" you may
know that "she" has been passed
through the fire.
Probably something like this
did you see Mary the other day?''
"Well-DID II"
81 should say"
"What makes her dress the way she
does?"
Nobody knows"
"She looked forty years old in that
! hat"
"She's worn it nearly that long"
| Always has it hanging over one
ear"
That's her temperament-she
spends hours pinning it on.
We'll II she only knew how she
looked!"
| Notice the jib of her skirt?'
| "Saged at the sides-looked like a
wet dish-rag."
and yet she goes to Indinatti to
buy EN-
wonder why she doesn't wear a
straight 'front.'"
"Why that's easy-trying to rope in
Doctor Sam"
| whats that got to do with it?'
ooh he don't believe in corsets, back
to nature, you know, and the simple
life"
We'll if she wants Doctor Sam
she'll have to get some new rags

1913 Car Equipment.

The equipment that goes on a car
these days is just as important as the
car itself, according to K. e. smith,
president Of the Overland Washington
Motor Company. distributors Of overland
cars. Without the proper accessories
no man can get the full enjoyment out
of his machine" continued Mr.. Smith.
Heretofore the buyer took all his
time looking over the mechanical quail
ties of cars. not giving more than a
passing thought to the accessories that
should 80 it. This year sees a de-
cided change in this respect, and
though a few dealers are trying to get
by on old standards. the majority have
recognized the newer demands and sell
their cars equipped with all the need
full accessories without any extra
charge.
This was to be expected of the high
priced creations. as they could we'll af-
ford it, but f5r the moderate-priced car
to meet the demand for a Self-Starter,

lite tank. etc. without increasing the
price of the ear, was some problem 1t

so much that where more than one mod
el is built adequate service to the user
is difficult, and consequently seldom
is satisfactory. and without that salts
faction complete success Is Impossible.
In view of the endeavOr of the pioneer
manufacturer to supply his dealer with a
complete line and admitting in the ma
jority of cases this necessity, and further
centration by manufacturers, / think the
same result viii be accomplished by a
different method
Dealers who are limited by their agree
ments with manufacturers to sell only
the one line are necessarily restricted in
their markets and In their earnings. This
course invites competition among dealers,
adding to their number many who are ire
sponsble. and the final result Is that but
few of them at the end of the year show
any profit. With the idea of concentra ton
carried out by manufacturers it would
necessarily follow along to the dealers
and would result in each dealer having a
line no two models of which would be
competitive in price or similar in general
detail and which would enable him to
cater to more than one of the markets In
his territory. to speak enthusiastically OF
the merits of each of the cars he repre-
sents and to finish each year with sub
stantial profit.
..The manufacturer cannot be successful
unless his dealers are successful, and
their interests are so interviewer as TO oe
Identical and absolutely dependent each
upon the other. / venture to assert that
this phase will receive considerably more
thought in the future than 1t mas In the
past.
