CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH NOTES

Colorado Day! Whatever conflicting
emotions the election returns brought
on Wednesday, most of us rejoiced
greatly at the news: DRY by 10000
to 10000 majority! Praise God.
Sedgwick County lost some dry"
votes because 1t is said that bootleg
ging. ETC., is on the increase particu-
larly in Julesburg. If those who scorn
at adding further restrictions when
present laws are violated, were true
to their citizenship they would aid
the officers by imparting their knowl-
edge so that violaters could be pros
ecuted. A man who today in Europe
harbors an enemy is shot. These who
violate our liquor laws are also enc
mics and 1t is treason not to expose
them. Victory is surely coming for Ma
tional Prohibition.
"Tis coming up the steps of time
And this old world is growing brighter
We may not live to see its dawn sub
lime,
But high hopes make our hearts beat
lighter.
We may be sleeping in the ground,
when 1t makes the world in wonder
But we have seen it gathering round,
And heard its voice of living thunder,
'Tfs coming! Yes, 'tis coming!"

Not till a year from this January will
the last saloon be closed and then only
will the liquor traffic stop completely

er is such hydra-headed monster
that he is hard to kill The enforce
ment of law will be in the hands of
those elected as keepers of the peace
and most Of these officers will natur-
ally follow the sentiment of the var.-
Gus communities where they are elect
ed. We still need to remember that
prohibition sentiment must be kept up
by all possible means. 1t took Kan
sas ten years to say that the whole
state was dry, not mentioning the
boot-leggers. One thing much in sayor
OF the enforcement Of the Prohibition
amendment is that with the first of
January 1916 the state will Ioce a
large class of undesirable citiz ems that
are parasites upon the body polite of
the state. They are the typ. of citizen
which the saloon magnet draws Al.
honest living is the fartherest hing
from their thought and they are a
block to law enforcement. let not our
rejoicing over results cause US to rest

their summer clothes to best suit their
own particular needs. Therefore,
fabrics. and their proper development.
are the all-important subjects.
There is vast array Of summer
fabrics from which TO choose For
church ana other formal occasions
taffata. foulard, and summer silk holds
the strong place. Black taffeta holds
first place and is used in variety of
ways and combinations. A dress
whose style ana distinction attracted
many eyes was made with jacket
which buttoned down the front and
was slightly fitted in the back, strong
ly Stimulating the old fashioned basque
worn in the SOS. The skirt was
copied from the orinoline styles,
though on conservative lines The al
ternate ruffles were of black and {
shade of silk which closely resembleC
magenta. The soft collar OF the waist
worn beneath rolled over the collar o
the jacket
