PRESIDENT STUDIES

Held Indoors by Snow, Mr.
Wilson Takes Up Business

HOT SPRINGS, Va, Dec. 27.-overcast
skies and a covering of snow which made
walking dangerous today held President
Wilson and his bride close to their suite
in their hotel here.
The President arose early intending to
play n round on the golf links to work
out any latent effect Of his drenehing
Saturday when he and Mrs. Wilson were
caught in the rain. But two inches OF
snow covered the links, with the weather
Indicating that more might be expected
soon. So he hustled secret service chief
"Toe" Murphy over for his confidential
stenoerapher. Charlie Sven, and buckled
down to clear up bunch of imperative
correspondence which Sven brought here
from Washington last night.
Among the matters brought to the at
tention OF the President was said TO be
n report of the conferences last week be-
tween Secretary Lansing and Senator
stone, of Missouri, chairman of the SEN
ate Foreign Relations Committee, in
which stone outlined certain opposition In
the Senate to the Administrations foreign
policy. and the report OF the conferences
between the Secretary and Baron Zwie-
dinek the Austrian Charge, over the AM
coma situation.
There were also number OF recon-
mendations from the Department of Jus
tice concerning prospective appointments
which must be made Immediately after
the first of the year.

ART MUSEUM MODEL
WILL BE EXHIBITED
Miniature Structure Will Be Shown
in City Hall Pavilion

The model of the proposed municipal
museum of art to be built on the site of
the old Fairmount Park reservoir will be
placed on exhibition this week i'm the pa
vilion in City Hall courtyard. The mod
el. which is of such large proportions as
TO enable all to obtain n good idea of the
proposed art palace, represents a design,
the execution of which will take several
years and will cost the city approximately
S4.00O,OO0
The members Of the Fairmount Park
Commission will inspect the model before
it is finally placed on public view. The
work Is by Horace Trumbauer and his
associates, Zantzinger, Medary and Borie.
1t embodies many changes in the plans
originally considered and shows a group
of connecting structures which, If finally
decided on, will equal or surpass many
of the art galleries of Europe.
Several hundred thousand dollars have
been spent in grading the site for the
buildings, and there is available at this
time $4,000 OF loan money for the start
of the work. Provision for the art gall
lery was contained in the recently aban-
doned 100000 loan, and il is likely that
provision for the building will be in
cIuded in the new loan, which it is
planned TO put TO a vote Of the people
in the early months OF the new admin
istration.

REV. III. e.. STONES
TRINITY POST FILLED

this is now said to be unlikely. No in
formation is available as 10 whether Mr..
Warfield or Mr. MAR will be rector in
charge Of the chapel, assuming that the
prediction that MIR, Stone will resign is
correct.
There Is the possibility, IL has been sug-
gested. that the appointment of Mr. War
field means that Mr.. Stone will not re-
sign, but will continue, nominally, at
least, as rector of the chapel, but that
the great bulk of the work will be taken
from his shoulders by the new assistant.
This arrangement would give him more
time to devote TO the Stonemen
The belief that Mr., Stone is TO give all
his time to the Stone Club is based on
the report that the club is to be ex-
panded on a large scale, and that it will
be such a great institution that 1t will
take all the time its head can give to it
for the direction of its AFFAIRS.
The Rev. DR.. Floyd Tomkins, rector of
Holy Trinity, who, next to Mr.. Stone
himself. is thought to know more about
the Stone Club than any one else, has re-
fused to discuss the report OF Mr., Stope's
resignation. He has advised all ques-
TONERS TO wait until the meeting of the
vestry next month. when, he says. the
real facts will become known.

WEAR YOUR UNIFORMS,
BISHOP TELLS DIVINES
Methodist Ministers Severely
Reprimanded for Their Busi-
ness Mems Attire

Clergymen who wear busines suits
We're severely reprimanded today, by
Bishop Thomas b. Neely, of the Methodist
Episcopal Church in an address before
the Ministerial Union in the Central
Branch of the Y. NJ. c. 4. Not more than
one-third of the 800 preachers present
We're neatly attired in regulation clerical
garb
The Bishop was talking on 1.-The Min
lister, the Service and the Church." and
it was during his discourse on the neces-
sary qualification of the men who would
serve as the Masters shepherds that he
called upon all of them to wear their
uniforms"
1.-The clerical coat and vest should al
ways be worn" said the speaker. 'and
when a minister puts on a business suit
of clothes he is practicing false pretenses
he is representing himself 10 be some
thing which he is not"
"The clerical suit is defense against
violence for the wearer,' continued
Bishop Neely. ''It protects him from
listening to vulgar and profane lam
guage and also helps him TO be on his
guard. lie knows the public looks to
him as a man of God and an example.
He must not disgrace his uniform"
The aged speaker also urged that min
isters maintain dignity and refrain from
singing their sermons at services, and
he said that some of the persons are de-
signing churches at present that are ruin
ing church architecture. The exterior is
best when of Gothic style, he said, and
the interior should be long and narrow
with a pulpit only slightly raised above
the floor, Preachers should not have 10
talk down so that their throats would be
sore and they would need trips to Europe
for rests after the war, he asserted.
Bishop Neely also spoke against a
union of all denominations and expressed
his belief that no person In the room
would ever see II come to pass. He said
that Christ never asked for a union Of
denominations, Once, during his dis
cussion of such a union, he spoke of the
Stone Age. and then brought forth much
applause when he said: his is not the
Stone Age"
His hearers inferred that he was gently
assaiiing the Stonemen Fellowship, which
has recently caused so much dissention
in the majority Of the denominations
The organization, previous to Bishop
Neely's address, voted to send letter 10
the Park Commissioners, requesting thai
permission be granted to the following
cuhrch and religious organizations TO con-
duct services In the city parks next sum
mer:
The Christian Endeavor Society OF the
Emmanuel Methodist Episcopal Church,
GOrgas Park; the Twenty-ninth Street
Methodist Episcopal Church, the Lemon
Hill Association, Lemon Hill, and tbs
Brotherhood of Andrew an Philip and
other affiliated organizations in the yicin-
ity Of Hunting Park, to hold services in
that park
The commissioners announced, follow
the denial of permission 10 the Lemon Ein
Association last year, that heneeforth no
religious services would be permitted In
the city parks

GIFT TO GIRLS IN JAIL. rr
AS evidence of the truth of the quota
ton Mayor Riddle laid down letter he
had just opened II was from two Gltls
in the Mays Landing jail thanking tho
Mayor for boxes of candy received by
them Christmas morning.
~ guess they know the truth of it,
too he remarked.
Most of the prominent men and women
y
themselves with the Slough evangelistlc
campaign feel that Mayor William Rid
die is the chief obstacle to a sweeping
success for the movement.
MAY DENOUNCE RIDDLE.
For this reason ith as been decided
that the Mayor must be converted at
any cost. The daily prayer meetings
held in the various Protestant churches
are intended to accomplish this purpose
before the opening of the revival cam
paign. if possible. If the Mayor is openly
hostile to the religious services held by
Stough, 1t Is expected that the evan
gelist will openly denounce Mayor
Riddle.
II Is pointed out that in HazletOn, Pa,
Evangelist Slough named four prominent
citizens as being responsible for wide

brought suit for $4,000 damages alleging
slander, three of the cases are still pend

fourth. The case was Immediately APP
