HEELS BETRAYED THEM
Choir Girls Wore Trousers

Two choir girls Of the Calvary Bsp-
fist Church took male parts in an en-
tertainment in the church auditorium
1913 West Fifty-seventh Street last
night Sensation seekers were diss1P,,
pointed. for. although the girls did
wear trohsers, the playlet was entlre,y

founded. N.

But their heels gave them away:
They we're high, and not even 1919

Tenor's bow tic had also been sled left

For the second time in a year, Mrs.
Mary Hill, of 1901 bedford Avenue
Brooklyn, was held UP last evening IN
her apartment by young man for
whom, last spring, she obtained work,
so that he might continue his course

a handbook for $500 and some personal
property on the second call.
Last night Mrs. Hill, who lives alone
on the second floor at the Bedford Ave
nue. address, told the police that she
returned to her home last evening after
a shopping tour. Lighting the light IN
the dining room, she was confronted
by revolver in the hand of a man
who stepped from the parlor. The in
truder demanded money and picked up
Mrs. Hills pocketbook, which had fallen
onto the table.
Keeping the woman covered, the man
backed to rear window, and with a
warning to remain quiet stepped out

ONLY TROUBLE SEEN
IN THE BIBLE BILL
Two Members of Educa-
ton Board and Rabbis'
Body Join Opposition.

Thomas ". Churchill, president OF
the Board of Education; Joseph Baron
dess. a member of the board; Miss
Sadie American, president of the Coun-
ell of Jewish Women. and the Board
OF Jewish Ministers Of New York yes
terday entered the lists against the
Greiner-Tallett Bible bill.
ave have bylaws which require the
reading Of the Bible by the school
principal every morning, SAID MI
Churchill. "But such reading is aoso-
lutely non-sectarian. The plan Is Cd.
noxious to nobody; the scheme OF
reading as proposed by the Orelner-
Tallett bill will antagonize many. The
bill is an utterly unnecessary thing
Religion is a delicate subject, and the
reading of the Bible in the public
schools is Just as delicate. The bill in
actual practice i'll be both useless and
rife of misunderstanding.
MIR. Barondess said that IL the bill
was passed il would encourage sec
tarianism.
"The Protestants will force their YER
sion" said Mr. .}arondess. THE Cath
olics will force theirs. II is human
nature and cannot be avoided. The
Church should be entirely divorced
from State activities. If the bill is
passed it will merely be an indication
that the State is again giving way TO
the Church. Certainly the reading OF
the Bible will not encourage patriot
ism in the hearts of the little chill
dren."
Miss Sadie American said last night
that keeping Bible reading out Of the
public schools, as has generally been
the custom in the United States, was
in line with the accepted principle that
Church and State be separated and
kept separated.
The Board OIL Jewish Ministers met
at the Temple Emanuel and elected a
committee to fight the bill The COM
mittee will draw up a protest and Pc
tition both houses at Albany. Dr.. Ru-
dolph Grossman is chairman; other
members are Rabbits NJ. II. Harris. Jo-
seph Silverman, II. Pereira Mendes and
Bernard Drachman. DR.. Harris, who
is president Of the Eastern Council OF
Reform Rabbs, announced that the
executive committee Of the council
would meet next Tuesday to plan ac-
tive opposition TO the bill.
