JAPAN HAS A REAL
"BMLY" SUNDAY NOW
Young Oriental Studied Ath-
letic Evangelist's Methods in
This City Last Winter

Philadelphla's great Sunday tabernacle
revival campaign is being duplicated In
far-away Japan by little japanese min
lister who studied BILLY" Sundays meth
ods here last winter. The athletic little
Oriental, who is stirring all Japan with
his attacks on sin and the devil was
a familiar figure in the BILLY Sunday

hazel-eyed residents OF his homeland
He learned his lesson well, and unlike
tho Reverend Billy" he started atter
satan and his imps right in the begin
ming in a great city. Sunday began his
reyiyaIs in a little country town in Iowa.
In the great city of Toxic the Rev. h'
S. Kimura erected a great tabernacle. IL
was a big, rough structure, with posts
and unpublished benches, having exactly
the appearance OF Sundays tab rnacle
In Philadelphia.
And when the wiry little Japanese got
on the firing line he used the same kind
of language and performed the same klnu
of athletic feats that have made the
American "Billy' famous. Thousands of

laughed and cried. just as the thousands
who heard Sunday preach here did. Then
when the call came for them TO mt the

aisles by scores and told the preacher
they would live for Christ. Kimura hac
been a successful evangelist before he
came here, but that success was nothing
to compare to what awaited him upon MS
return.
Come along now! slide your feet into
your wooden shoes and clack up the aisle

This is the way a writer In the New

A CHARMING LITTLE GOWN
OF LAVENDER SILK AND ROSES

THERE is nothing new
Il under the sun, accord
ing TO some fashion
designers. but each sea-
son brings its quota OF
novelties. and this win
ter's evening gowns show
some most attractive
ones. A very significant
revival is the craze for
spangled and beaded ef-
fects. The old-fashioned
sequin robe Is quite the
thing, especially on the
higher-priced models. The
reason for this Is obvious.
France needs the Ameri-
can trade to give her
kers employment,
since her own women are
scarcely interested in
evening gowns. there be-
ing no really formal oc-
caslon on which to wear
them. So the French de-
signers naturally have
chosen America ms their
particular field. and, as
suming that all the fcmi-
nine population are as eN-
travagant as the few who
i. buy their gowns in Paris,
l hey give us alaborately
spangled, embroidered
and bead ed evening
gowns which cost a
young fortune.
Naturally, since these
gowns are only for the
chosen few who can af-
ford such luxuries, our
New York designers have
given us skilful adapta-
tions of the same. with
out their imported price
tags. A smart little dance
gown of lavender faille
silk is shown in today's
fashion cut, with motifs
In silver sequins. 1t is a
charming thing and de-
signed for the debutante.
The bodice has the
fashionable one-sided ef-
feet, with lavender silk
net to fll in the one side,
with n rufiie Of soft Sc
duin-edged net over the
shoulder. The other side
is made of faille. The
skirt continues the same
idea, with a double tunic,
raised at either side, and
a soft arrangement of net
at the hem. a very new
note is introduced in the
novel way that garlands
of silk roses in natural
coforings are used at the
front of the gown.
