PHILADELPHIA, Jan. lo,-Rev. Forest
2. Dagger rector OF ST Paurs Reformed
Episcopal church. today. at the direction
Of Bishop Rudolph. made public apology
from his pulpit 10 Mir. and Mrs. Z. T.
Stotcsbury for the annoyance caused
through the 'gerbled and inaccurate" ac-
count Of a sermon which ne recently de-
livered Dr.. Dagger explained that he had
not made the remarks attributed TO him
and that a wrong construction had been
placed on his entire sermon through the
eradication oil that portion OF his remarks
Just preceding the phrase in reference TO
the Stotesourys.
Rev. Mr.. Dagger later explained that ne
had learned that neither Mr.. and Mrs.
Stotesbury favored smoking by women. II
had been stated that the Stotesburys pro-
vlded cigarettes in profusion for their
young women guests.
''It has been brought to my attention. -
he continued, that not 80 very long ago
Mr.. Stotesbury, at private function
given for one OF his family, gave orders
that cigarettes should not be served. The
result was that several OF the young worn-
en- produced their own cigarettes. Surely
Mr.. Stotesbury could not be blamed for
that
II appreciate thoroughly that Mr. and
Mrs. Stotesbury any more than any other
persons In society are unable TO control
the actions of their guests. IT is unfortu-
nate that smoking has become common
among women and 1 deplore the fact,
now wish to apologize publicly for the un-
pleasantness the false construction placed
on nay remarks last sunday may have
caused Mr.. and Mrs. Stotesbury.'
I'VE do not court any publicity" said
Mr. Stotesbury today. land we have done
nothing for which we should be made the
targets OF ridicule, The, cost of the three
functions given by us has been terribly
exaggerated. OF course. they have cost
something. but the money that was cx-
pended went into the pockets OF persons
who needed 1t. Our critics do not seem
