During the storm which passed
over Paris and vicinity yesterday al
ternoon several poles carrying the
high tension wire of the Lexington
service which supplies Paris with
light and power, were blown down,

fered with, temporarily, but energetic
work by the company's workers had
the service restored by p. m. The
worst damage was done between sta
ton "a and 35 on the interurban line
between Paris and Lexington. The
Paris Gas & Electric Light Co.'s office
was beseiged by anxious inquirers
Superintendent Steenbergen and as
sistants got busy and by dint of pre-
sistent work got assurances from the
Lexington end of the line that the
service would be resumed by 700 p.
m. Every effort that could be made
to restore the service was made by
the Paris officials and they even made
arrangements to start up the Paris
plant, when the current came on and
service resumed.

A sour tonbstone's a fright;

To hear some folks eat soup.

PUTS HIRED GIRL PROPOSITION
UP TO WITNESSES
An appeal to mistresses to show
more interest in their. hired girls was
voiced by Mrs. Ophelia, Lawrence
Blair in a speech before The Forum
yesterday afternoon.
''The report of the Morals Court
made recently shows that of $50 girls
who went wrong, 225 were formerly
employed as domestics," said Mrs.
Blair IF the mistresses of the house
would only take a little friendly,
motherly or sisterly interest in her
servants, this percentage would be
cut down a great deal and the help
problem would be more nearly solved.
Surely good home ought to be an
inducement to girl. Under present
conditions, however, records show it
tends to drive her to ruin"

Form-reveaing gowns got one OF

the Rev. William G. Biting of st.

sedate Sunday Evening Club in Chi
cago.
Some dresses seem designed to
enable men to study woman's anat-
omy," said Rev. Biting. you wo-
men little know how largely you are
responsible for the unchaste thoughts
of men, and what is worse, the dress
seems to indicate that women wear
the clothes they do for the very pur-
pose of exciting this kind of atten-
ton from men. You certainly don't
wear such clothes for the sake of
comfort in a snow-stoFm."

Robberies Result Of
Idleness, Says Pastor

There was much discussion in col
ored church circles Monday of the
sermon Of the Rev H H. Proctor at
the First Congregational Church Sun
day night, in which he used as his
text The Bank Robbery Attempt"
He said that the robber illustrates
the results of idleness and how one
crime leads to another. The same
energy directed in worthy channels,
he said, would be valuable to the
community.
