 costume. It consists of a three-. piece skirt with tapped front edges and generous pockets and a plain blouse. The design is smart in every detail and girls who like tennis, golf and boating and outdoor pleasures will recognize its avail ability. In the pie ture, the skirt is made of white linen and the blouse is made of blue and white silk with linen collar and cuffs, but one can think of a dozen ways in which the treatment could be varied. For skirts, gol6ne and corduroy are much liked and linen in color as we'll as in white is being used, pique is fashionable and there are cotton crepcs and ratines that are excellent for the purpose. For the blouse, handker- chief linens and cot ton lawns are equally fashionable, plain colorcd crepes and plain colored voiles are much liked and tub silks, both in stripes and in plain colors. are smart. Plain colored hand. kcrchief lawns and silks are being much used with trimming of white and trim. ming of striped ma. terials so that there is a great deal of va. riety possible from just these two simple garments.

Social
Happenings
Golden Wedding


On September l, the golden
wedding of Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph
Rankin Mckinley was celebrated,
at their home one mile east of
town. 1t was attended by sixty
or seventy relatives, neighbors,
and other friends of the family,
and was a most delightful and
memorable occasion. Fiftyyears
ago Prof. Thomas J. Lamar, of
blessed memory, performed the
marriage ceremony that united
Mr.. Mckinley and Miss Fidelia
Mcconnell as husband and wife.
The ceremony was performed at
the old Mcconnell home, now
occupied by Isaac N. Mcconnell.
The newly welded couple estab-
liehed their home on a farm in
the eighth district, where they
lived for thirty-four years, or
until they moved to the old Nc
Donald home. Nine children
were born into the family, of
whom four have died. These
four were Mamie A., Flora
Mcconnell, who married DIR. Lee
Mcconnell, Laura, and Luella.
Five children are living, three of
whom were present at the golden
wedding. Mrs. Minnie Foster,
of Hopkinsville, Kentucky, and
Leonard Joseph Mckinley, prin-
cipal of a high school near Hop
kinsville, Kentucky, were unable
to be present. Rev. Charles
Calvin Mckinley, D. D., Synodi-
cal Superintendent of Missouri,
Rev. John Newton Mckinley, |
Pastor of the Benton Boulevard
Church, of Kansas City, and Mrs.
Mary Splitter, the wife of a bust
ness man of Findlay, Ohio, were
the ones that were present.
The lawn and the house were
decorated with appropriate gold
en-wedding emblems, while the
beautiful afternoon was itself in
keeping with the occasion. Touch
ingly eloquent addresses to the |
parents were made by their two
sons, while President Wilson, of
the College, Al former teacher of
the children of the family, repre-
sented the wide circle of friends
in his address. An appropriate
song was sung by two of the
eight living grandchildren. Re-
freshments were served. Among
the many gifts that were made
Mr.. and Mrs. Mckinley was sixty
dollars in gold, fifty of it given
by the children, and ten dollars
by DR.. Lee Mcconnell.
The worthy couple. who have
travelled the ways of life together
for a half century, have had the
great happiness of training their
children for usefulness, and Of
seeing them attain to great use
fuIness. They have already had
their reward, but the happy oc
casion of their golden wedding
will be one Of the most grateful
memories of their lives. They
have lived earnest, useful lives,
and have the respect and love of
all who know them. y

War-America

Such are the prophetic words
declared to have been woven by
a spider across the weave of his
web, foretelling the coming Of
strife of the nation.
And such are the words thai
led two members of The Journa
and Tribune editorial staff anC
the staff artist on a long wilC
goose chase, amid darkness anC
in a downpour of rain, across
dark and mysterious streets anC
alleyways last night, bent upor
seeing for themselves the proph-
ecy that foretold the engulfing
of America in the cataclysm that
then would have included almost
the whole known world. But staff
artist arrived too late. The
ruinous hand of an inebriate had
destroyed spider and his fateful
prophecy, and the marvel was
not for their eyes.
But though unseen by the writ
err and those who were with him.
they have the word of two men
who claimed that they did see the
web and it's prophecy, and aver
ed that no less than five
hundred others did during Sun
day.
The story related is that the
discovery was made by couple
of children, who called the atten-
ton of a woman to it, and she
read the prophecy the spider had
woven: War, and America in it.
The discovery Immediately awak-
ened great interest in the neigh
borhood, and crowds commenced
to flock that way. The web was
meath the steps Of a rear porch
of a Lawrence avenue cottage,
near Marion street, and not from
the gas works though the pro-
of the gas plant is not be-
lieved to have had anything TODD
with the story.
The discovery is said to have
been made about noon Sunday,
but it was early evening when
the telephone hell in The Jour
nal and Tribune editorial office
rang, and the voice that came
over the wire told the story of
how a spider, though not very
small spider, had, with ~ few

pact into a cooked hat almost
overnight, and made to go for
all the hours and days

Fifteen tried VaudeVillians of distinct ability aid her.
 Others acts of charm are the Oh- vians in their comedy Juggling act, Frank Bruce & Company in the ap- pealing sketch t'The Newly Married Man. Kathleen & Capetola, the two musical maids; Dickenson & Dugan direct from the Candy Shop" and the three Hickey brothers in a new and novel singing and tumbling rev elation.
 Frederick Perry, whose impersona- ton of the leading role has created marked comment throughout the United States and Europe where this picture has been. shown to great audi ences, is said to be without peer in this photo masterpiece.

Carmen, the great feature picture which has been the talk of New York this week will through the personal efforts of MT. S. 2.
