ON HISTORIC CHRISTIAN
SOIL.

SOIL.
The most thrilling story of the
many-sided world war, a bare
mention of which was made in ca
Diagrams from Egypt several weeks
ago, has now come to this country
in detail; and for religious interest
it parallels the heroic experience of
the earlier martyr days of the
church. 1t is the defense by more
than 1000 Christian Armenian viii
layers of the mountain top outside
OF old Antioch for So days against
5000 regular Turkish troops aided
by an armed Moslem mob estimated
at about IS, 900 men. After their
long siege, the christians were res
cued by French and British war
ships, and taken to Port Said, where
they are now encamped. 1t was a
crossfag displayed on the mountain
top, that attracted the first cruiser S
attention.
The latest story of Christian
heroism comes from the place where
the church originally acquired the
name Christian. The familiar
phrase from Acts xxi, 26, will be
recalled. The disciples were
called christians first in Antioch. ,"

now the dramatic news is that on
this spot the Armenian christians
threatened with death and deporta-
ton by the Moslems. made a re-
sourceful, brilliant and dauntless
defense that reads like a novel.
After eighteen centuries Antioch
Christianity proves true to type.
Not the least interesting phase of
the story is the fast that the chris
tians were led by an American.
trained Armenian pastor. That al
most all the people had learned to
read and write in American mission
schools; and that the democratic
self-government with which they
met their great crisis was learned
from New England Congre gational

to the story.

The women of New York are wear
ing high collars and assuming a mill
tary carriage These two details
have not yet reached all the other
fashion centers OF the United States,
but they are on their way. Before
winter fairly sets in the collarIess
frock for the street and the carriage
that is still reminiscent Of the debut
ante slouch will be things OF the past
The collarless effect will be decid
edly out OF fashion this winter. So
whatever else you do or don't do in
rernodeling your old suit, be sure to
put high collar on it. In Washing
ton and many of the other smaller
cities last winter the models that
came in with high collars had to be
remodeled with low collars. because
the people didn't like them. This
year the nigh collar will be accepted
everywhere.
The military carriage that is be-
coming fashionable is in part due to
the high cellar For the high collar
and the straight shoulders below it
demand that the woman wearing
them hold herself as straight and
erect as possible. The models and
Inannekins who wore the new suits
before the buyers this autumn had
adopted this military carriage and
the women who buy the suits will
have to do likewise This new up
right carriage is by no means an un
natural or strained posture. But it
is decidedly different from the curved
posture OF year ago.
The buyers are thanking their
stars for such color as there is in
the autumn suits. They get tired of
blues and blacks. OF course they
know that these colors are most
serviceable and that they usually look
smart, but they long within their
hearts for a season when bright red.

rose suits will be in high bavor.

advances the colors that smite the
eye will become more acceptable
