Silk jersey or glove silk underwear is

glove silk in summer because of this

undergarments. The glove silk pantalon

Embroidered chiffon negliges are for

less time for the maid to snap on the

OAkMONT, Pa, June 6.-An innova-
ton in cvhurch unity was marked last
week by the laying of the corner stone
of $4,000 chapel. which will serve as
the church home of a group of Baptists,
Methodists. Presbyterians, Lutherans,
Episcopalians and Friends.
Oakmont sees what many other towns
have failed to see: the advantage of one
strong church over a half-dozen weak
ones. So the church members of the
town dropped their denominational titles
for awhile and organized union Sunday
school.
The Sunday school was organized In
1909. Easter, 1918, the Sunday school
grew to a union church, which now has
ninety-seven members. The building will
be known as Grace Chapel.
The minister of the church Is Rev.
James H Feely, a student who is IL
censed evangelist in the Presbyterian
Church. Though he is responsible to his
own denomination, the church has no
connection with any denomination. Its
orgaization cosists of a board of trus-
tees and a church council. Grace Chapel
has a Front Line School, 1t having
acquired the ten points Of excellence
which makes it SO.
A number Of Philadelphia ministers took
part in the corner stone laying today,
among them being Rev. Charles Walker
Anschuts, pastor Of the Lutheran Church
at Ardmore; Rev. d. K. Wood OF the
Ardmore Baptist Church, Rev. William
Downey of the Methodist Church at Ard

these bones and steels are scarcely
longer than a lead pencil.
Chiffon is the very latest fancy for
summer underwear. The idea of a
chiffon nightgown is rather startling.
Closely woven chiffon cloth is used
and this is accordion plated or gather
ed closely so that the semi transparent
garment falls in soft. clinging folds.
Sometimes a sash at the hips confines
the gathered or plated chiffon in the
long. slim lines that even intimate gar
ments must follow now.
The laces used by Paris makers of ex-
elusive lingerie are of the filmiest sort.
Plain nets are high in favor and there
are net top laces which are SO soft and
fine that they may be formed even into
ruffies and f1ounces without adding ma
terially to the bulk of a garment. As
rule ruff1es are taboo on modern lin
gerie, but here and there one sees a
soft. scant little frill of net lace on a
pantalon. or an equally soft. scant fiounce
on a petticoat. The unfrilled petticoat
is rarely pretty. but the old, tried and
true rule of "once-and-a-half the width
for a petticoat f1ounce no longer obtains.

5pffial Campaign to
Complete 100000
Christian Endeavors Hope to Com
plete Funds to Begin Building on
Beacon Hill, in John Hancock's
Orchard, Shortly.

Christian Endeavor has a represent
ative out on a whirlwind campaign to
complete a fund of $4,000 with which
to erect a headquarters building in Bos-
ton. The campaign is restricted to en-
deavorers, but covers the. country from
San Francisco eastward.
Rev. DIR. Francis e. Clark founder of
Christian Endeavor, and ever since its
head. is assisting with letters and lit
erature. The fund, not a large one
when compared to other enterprises, has
been long in collecting. Endeavor lead
ers declare that it must now be COM
asked to help make up the sum, SO the
work can be commenced shortly.
The proposed new headquarters build
ing is to stand on Beacon Hill, Boston,
just west of the gilt-domed state house,
in what was John Hancock's orchard
before the revolutionary war.
There are on it now five mansions OF
the old Boston type, and into these the
Christian Endeavor Offices have recently
been moved from fremont Temple. The
$30O.OOO covers both site and building.
which latter Is to be headquarters for
both Christian Endeavor and World s
Endeavor Union.
President Clark of the United Society
is pointing out that endeavor headquar-
ters will be more than an office building.
in that it will be a school whose pupils
will be all over the world. and from
which will~be taught Christian efficiency
methods. He also points out that
and spiritual in its aims and work;
Work on the new headquarters and
school building, It is declared, is to start
the moment the fund Is in hand.
