SUNDAY PICTURE

BYOR. WILMER
Atlanta Pastor Says TheaterS
with Good Moral Tone Are
Not Harmful.

nr c. B. Wilmer, rector of st. Lukes
Episcopal church and a member of the
rrbIfcation committee of the Men and
Religion Forward Movement, to-day
.,,,tad the Bible in support of the
movement for opening the moving pic
,ura houses in Atlanta on Sunday.
Dr. Wilmer said he in company with
Dr Mtmminger and DIR. Wing, have ap-
reared before the city council and ask
Cd for the appointment of a commits
son to look into the Sunday question,
snd then be governed by the findings
If such fair minded commission.
Dr. Wilmer declared that it was his
opfnton that if you put on the wheels
If wagon too tight the wagon will
mot run" He inttmated that Atlanta
had her wheels on too tight now.
Not Too Liberal.
we must remember however, in dis
cussug this Sunday question, that if
Too liberal plan is adopted the day of
rest will be done away with alto

Two thousand years ago Jesus
christ was censured by the Pharisees,
lust as the advocates of Sunday NOV
inc pictures are being censured today
The Pharsees held that Jesus was too
liberal in his views on the observance

must have recreation. The conditions
in Atlanta seem to be such that the

ployer He must give his empIoyer So"

Equal Sunday Rights.
"a man has just as much right to
play his band on Sunday as ] have to
deliver my sermon. Only we must
get together on some kind of propo-
stion so thai his playing will not dis
turb me and my preaching will not dis
lurb him. For long time the seventh
day has been agreed upon as the day
in which all people will turn their
mind TO religious things. Then if the
moving pictures do not interfere with
my preaching and are conducted in
moral atmosphere, | say let them run.
Man has personal liberties which no
other man has a right to infringe upon.
Every man is answerable to God in
dIvidually and what anybody else does
has no influence on the answer. The
only limit that is thrown around
mans liberties is that he shall not be-
come nuisance. If the picture shows
are not a nuisance, let them run. | am
in favor of amateur Sunday baseball,

day bathing, that any man should be

NEGLIGEE THAT IS CHIC, IF
DARING.

With regard to color. we still suffer
from Bulgarianitis OF a vIrulently
gaudy type. Will crowned heads in the
east please take notice? Or dare we
hope that the next time they choose
to alter the map of Europe dressmakers
will be sufficiently strong minded to
look the other way?
Hats. by the way. are the only items
of ones attire that have kept their
heads. as it were. in the general con-
fusion. They are gaudy, but neat.
They. too. have departed from ancient
hat tradition. but not TO relapse into
chaos.
Who would have dared a few years
ago to plant nothing but solitary, I'M
compromising feather on ones best
hat? When l compare the single quill,
the Isolated plume. the lonely rose. of
the present scheme with the confusion
of flowers. punches of feathers and
yards Of tulle considered essential once
upon time TO the well being of every
self respecting chapeau l come to the
conclusion that great deal of courage
is wasted on millinery.
There are some efforts that are ac-
tually quite naked and una.ihamed.
They depend for success upon the
charm of their curves. to say nothing
OF the fine eyes of their wearers.

CLEANING YOUR TRINKETS

.TEWELRY does not need to be clean
ed very often. Indeed, too much
rubbing and securing would be likely
to spoil It but once or twice a year
you should have a cleaning day and
FURNISH up every trinket in your pos
session.
Start by putting aside all the pieces
that have pearls in them. for pearls
are very delicate and need special
treatment.
Give each article a good rubbing with
soft cloth. II the gold or silver
mount is very dull or stained you may
use a little plate powder. but this is
not necessary in a general way.
Have ready a small basin full of
warm soapsuds. Drop the trinket into
this. let it soak for a few minutes and
then scrub II briskly with a tooth
brush. A tremendous amount of dirt
will come away. making the suds quite
grimy.
Rinse the trinket in clean, warm wa
ter and dry IL thoroughly working into
all the little corners. An old silk hand
kerchief does excellently for this pur-
pose.
Now pour out into a saucer q few
drops of spirits of wine. dip another
toothbrush into this and scrub the
trinket with it. The spirits of wine
will take away any soap or powder
that has chung TO the surface and will
make the article quite clean.
Dry the trinket, drop IL into a pile OF
sawdust and work it about there with
your fingers till il is so completely dry
that the grains of sawdust will no
longer stick to it: then a very light
rub with a cloth or leather will make
IL twinkle as brightly as it did when
you first saw it in the jewelers. case.
Gold and silver, real stones, imitation
stones. bead chains and enamel work
can all be cleaned in this way. but
pearls and pearl beads must not be
put into spirits OF wine and the mounts
must not be rubbed with powder.
Wash them first in soapsuds and then
IN clean water and finish by polishing
them with soft cloth.

KEEPING FAIR HAIR FAIR

7 DON'T wonder you are troubled. 1t
is most annoying for you to discov-
er your pretty fair hair is getting
darker and darker, said a sympathiz-
ing admirer TO blond beauty.
However cheer up for l think you'll
find If you shampoo 1t regularly with
camomile tea it will keep its pretty
bright tints for quite a long time.
First OF all you must wash your
head in the ordinary way to get ii
quite free from dirt and grease. If you
a good quality of soft soap is as nice
as anything to use-it makes a SPLEEN
did lather. especially if you are able to
get rainwater.
Be very careful to rinse all the soap
out of your hair. and then just dry IL
| enough to prevent its dripping.
Next pour half a pint of camomile
tea all over your head. rub il well into
the roots and drench the long hair
with it Dry your head if possible in
| the open air.
The camomile tea not only preserves
| the color, but makes the hair ever so
soft and glossy. II is a splendid tonic,
too, and very cheap.
Before beginning to wash your head
| you must start TO get the tea ready by
putting a good handful of camomile
| flowers into jug and pouring half
pint of boiling water over them; then
| let the brew stand while you are wash
| ing your head, and afterward strain of
! the liquid.
If you had a great rope of hair IN
stead Of that fascinating little bit of
fun I should tell you TO use double the
quantity of the tea.
BY the bye. do you know. my dear,
that. although fresh air is splendid for
the hair. sunshine is fearfully bad, as
| 1t takes the color out and turns fair
! hair rusty. So don't let me catch you
| going without your hat this summer.
No, dear, don't use peroxide to keep
] your hair fair; 1t is really a bleach and
! will turn your hair canary color in
/ time II you are not very careful 1t
! looks so artificial besides
| I've known very muddy hair bright
ened by rinsing the head after II has
been shampooed with a breakfFs tcup-
full OF cold water TO which a dessert
spoonful OF pure peroxide has been
added. but / shouldn't advise any one

There may be no apparent difference
or there may be 9 really startling
change.

long IT'S day. AS the politician whose
features do not lend themselves to
caricature never really finds his way to
the heart of the people, so the clothes
which cannot be jeered at in the comic
papers seldom settle down to a long
lease of life.
Some unexpected kink in feminine
human nature makes ii side with the
weak and oppressed. The more man
may scott and belittle the more will a
woman cling to the victim of his de-
rision with affectionate perversity.
The crinoline enjoyed a long period
OF popularity chiefly because famous
artists and a host OF other people less
famous spent so much time and talent
making fun OF it. If mankind would
only realize that no woman can be
laughed out OF her foliies it would
change her tactics. But the sensible
gentlemen do nothing of the sort. the

SUGGESTIONS
FOR PICNICKERS

THERE are I'VE requisites necessary
for picnic during the summer
They are a fine day with no signs OF
storm to mar ones peace of mind.
agreeable company. delicious edibles.
not too much luggage. and last, but by
no means least. a beautiful spot for the
feast.
In selecting this spot one should not
be beguiled by the picturesqueness Of
a woodland brookside with its nodding
ferns. That delightful corner Is Of
ten the happy hunting ground OF the
busy mosquito. arch enemy of picnic
lovers. A dry. shaded spot on the out
skirts OF a forest or under a big tree
at the end OF a meadow is not often
haunted by the enemy.
As to company. each picnic giver
must Judge for herself. About edibles
the time and the place have much TO
do with the contents OF the picnic bas-
ket but few general suggestions may
be OF service. In the first place. the
eatables must be well balanced. There
is tendency to carry too many sweets.
Plenty OF sandwiches containing
cheese. meat or egg mixtures should be
taken along. As 10 cakes. leave at home
those that are likely TO crumble or be-
come sticky on the journey. such as
layer cake and cellars. Avoid all fruits
that are too Juicy TO be eaten by hand
Apples. bananas and other dry fruits
are most appropriate. II you have a
refrigerator basket you will be able TO
carry such good things as salads
m for
ishable edibles. Chilled coffee topped
with whipped cream makes a delicious
drink II the day is hot. II the coffee is
bottled and packed snugly against the
ice compartment so that IL will not be
jolted II will be thoroughly chilled by
serving time.
Tin boxes in which crackers come
make excellent sandwich receptacles.
The following list is well worth con-
sulting, when the family is planning a
picnic outing:
Plates. cups, knives. forks. spoons.
Iepkins. Jelly glass or tin box for but
Ter. salt shaker, pepper shaker. tin
cracker boxes, cake box. glass bottles
for cream, salad dressing, ETC.; box
for stuffed eggs OF meat loaf.
Besides these one must remember to
carry along the can opener and a
workable corkscrew and few matches
II an alcohol lamp is in the outfit
These are trifes that hardly seem
worth mentioning. but painful expert
ence has proved that when forgotten
there is much regret.
II one fears that a Jelly glass viii be
broken a large tin baking powder or
cocoa box can be used for butter.
a stout pasteboard box is better for
holding cake than tin. because II is
lighter. tin box large enough 10
hold n big loaf or cake would make a
heavy package. Other foods. too. can
be carried better in pasteboard boxes
than in tins.

CHILDREN'S PRETTY
OUTDOOR GAMES

+ ERE are few suggestions for OUT
door games that the children will
Just love to play. Not many people in
this country know the game called
King Caesar" although in Merrie
England 1t is a favorite with the kid
dies. 1t is really very good sport and
is played like this:
Mark off base at each end OF your
ground. Choose one player for King
Caesar. He then takes his stand be-
tween the two bases and tries to touch
those on the shoulder who run across.
When three are touched he must so
back TO one OF the bases. Next. those
running across must not only be
touched by the three who have them
selves been touched. but must be held
until one can touch the others head
and say, Il crown thee, King Caesar"
and this must go on until all are
caught. No one must return to the
base that he has left unless he Is hop
ping.
The Turnpike Game.
This NAV be played with a hoop or
ball and by any number OF players.
The turnpike is made by bricks or
stones on the ground about six inches
apart and for as long a distance as
preferred. The first player tries to
strike the hoop a swift blow or give the
ball a deft roll that will send either
| article right through the turnpike
without touching a stone.
The other players range themselves
at equal distances from the end of the
pike, forming sides, and rush for the
ball or hoop as 1t energies. The one

stones or if it touches the stones he is
out of the game. At the close the side
having most players left has won the
game.
An Animated Spelling Bee.
A living spelling bee is good fun play
ed in this way: Each child represents
/ a letter of the alphabet and carries
round placard. on which n large A or
Il or r as the case may be, is printed.
When the word to be spelled is given
out the various letters come forward
and range themselves in the proper
order, with placards held slightly for

takes are made. of course. but thess
