matter along the line of Sunday
school work is full OF general relig-
ious information. The regular sub
scription price of the paper is one
dollar and fifty cents per year, but
Brother Crumpton is anxious to put

whirlwind canvass at the fiat rate OF
one dollar until five hundred new
names have been added, which, with
the enthusiasm he is putting into the
canvass, is sure to be accomplished.

taking, and at Lumpkin, his former
pastorate, many well wishing friends
of his church and all other denomi-

ular popular price.
We all wish Mr.. Crumpton abund-
ant success.

CHOOSING THE VISITING CARD

Of Ones Own Choice.

In q casual tone for new visiting cardss
Tho salesman inquiries: What kind
madam" Hundreds Of cards .,are'
whirled at you. You are informed
that Mrs. Murray-Lothrop never uses
old English lettering; you are assured
that Mrs. Rutledge-Harmon prefers
her cards to read with three names;'
those of her husband and herself and
of her daughter. Your husband does
not wish to use his middle name In
full, but the man across the counter
lifts his eyebrows and tells you that
initials may have been In style when
George Washington was the first gem
tleman of America, but they are not
used now by anyone who pretends to
know social conventions.

tirely correct thing. which II thin

letters, shaded with the address be-
meath in the corner, then you will In
stantly wonder II 1t would not have
been wiser to have ordered shaded old

ken the place Of plain old English. The
public will answer that question BY
saying that block letters are neaters
cleaner and easier to read.
What about your husbands cardsn
asks the man across the counter. Your
first impulse is to wonder why your
husband cannot attend to his own
cards, but when you are reminded that!
it Is in better taste for the cards Of
the family to correspond in size and
lettering you turn to the task with
more confidence. You choose an OBJ
long bit of pasteboard with his name
in full preceded by Mr.. and followed
in the lower corner with his address.
You sigh. This task is done for the

lief the man across the counter asks
whether all of your husbands cards
shall bear the name of his club. Now
this is the one question for him to de-

warming OT0Pe oS NnIuo 6Iouoc.
Yoke effects are much the vogue
now, and some of the new shirtwaists
and costume blouses for spring show
shallow yokes in effective combina-

of this sort was made of crepe de
chine in a new rich shade of blue.
The shallow yoke over the shoulders
was attached to the gathered blouse
under corded piping, the yoke extend
ing down to form a long shoulder
line. A broad. very low collar of the
crepe de chine opened In front of the
point of intersection of yoke and
waist, and over this broad collar
turned back an equally low but mar
row white MORE silk collar. The long
sleeves had deep. fitted cuffs of the
crepe, and narrower turn back cuffs
of white MORE. This smart and artis-
tic little blouse accompanied a spring
travelling costume of blue silk and
wool lansdowne in the same shade.
