During Saturday nights gale three barues were wrecked off Narragansett Pier. and two bodies, a man and a wo- man have been washed ashore. They were, undressed. The body of the wo- man was found at tte entrance to Narrow river, and that of the man came at Silerry's Bathing pavilion. Up to q late hour Sunday afternoon the bodies had not been identified. Three barges were lowed into Nara gansett Bay at s.a0 Saturday night and were making slow headway. The towboat evidently proceeded to Providence. but as there is no trace of the bargest it is believed they are lost. Wrackage has come ashore and one piece bears the word Madison, presumably a name of one of the barges.

BY BETTY BROWN.

New York, July 2O.-A firm which
specializes on garments for mourning
wear continues to use black faille as
the conventional material. While
trimming of any kind is considered
out of place on a mourning garment,
the huge sleeves and extra broad
collar are telling points OF style in a
very handsome coat suit.
Although many fall suits have the
"tuyau," tube, or straight up-and-
down line, those designed for mourn
ing wear retain the belt and full
skirt which can never be considered
too striking or freakish.

THE BATTLES eF WOMAN.

Her battles are fought with a silent
strength;
She comes from them bringing the
sun,
She lifts from her shadows, illum-
ined at length,
And the right of her soul hath won.
She takes her thought and she takes
her care,
And her problems of right and
wrong,
And when she comes out from her
battle and prayer,
She is holy and sweet and strong.
Her nameless and terrible questions
rise,
They are se~ged as any trust;
And when she has answered there's
in her eyes
No atom of doubt or dust.
She has fought for the sight to see
Alright,
She has tried Tor strength to feel;
And when she is there in her closet to
She is there not to struggle, but
kneel.
She will suffer and yield and do her
part,
She will give all duty may mean,
But she fights the battle of life in her
heart,
Where the battles are fought un-
seen.
And when she comes forth from a
struggle with self,
She comes with a light on her face
That shows she has prayed and iaa 7
afraid,
And has won by the light of grace.

DELAWARE MASONIC NEWSPAPER
WILDE Published With Approval of State
Lodges and Devoted to Their Interests

WILDE Published With Approval of State
Lodges and Devoted to Their Interests
Announcement is made that Della
ware is to have Masonic newspaper
devoted to the interests of the order
and that the first issue will be made
sometime in October. 1t will be
known as the Delaware Masonic In
dex and has the approval of the heada
of all the Masonic bodies in the state.
The members of the fraternity in this
state have never had paper of their
own, and this monthly publication is
expected to be of considerable benefit
to the order in general.
c. j. Morgan, for many years in
the business department of the news
paper profession, will be the business
manager, and H. 7. Price, a member
of the board of assessment for the
city of Wilmington, will be the
editor.
1t is intended to issue a paper in
magazine form with about twenty
pages to an issue and while it will be
devoted to Masonic matters it will
give the news of the various Masonic
organizations in such style that it
will be interesting reading to the
general public as we'll as the members
of the order. 1t is proposed also to
print portraits of prominent members
of the order in business and public
life and to give all information in
which members of the order are in-
terested.
Prominent members of the order,
including the heads of the various
bodies of masonry in the state are
pleased that the order is to have a
paper of its own and have given the
project their approval. Delaware
Consistory, the 32d degree branch of
the order in Delaware, through it's
head officers, was the primary mover
in the plan, but the paper will be de-
voted to all branches of masonry and
has the approval of all.

part in all church affairs and until her
health prevented attended services re-
gularly each Sunday. She was known
personally to everyone in Newark and
beloved by all. Mrs. Curtis always
gave freely to charity and took an ac-
tive interest in every movement that
would in any way benefit Newark or
the people of the town. S. Minot

BIRDS WOULD CONSERVE FOOD
Return Of Feathered Benefaetors 10
Farm Would Mean Saving of Bill.
lion Dollars a Year.

If the Eastern states alone could
bring back the quail, the Fose-breasted
grosbeaks and other bird benefactors
they would save $15,0O0,OO0 a year in
the price of materials used to kill pO-
tato bugs.
Charles 2. Shoffner of the Liberty
Bell Bird club made this statement, the
Philadelphia North American states.
He made a plea for the birds as a
means of conserving the nations food
resources.
eff Pennsylvania had but one pair
of robins to the acre." he said, ''the
birds would consume 5000 tons of in
sects a day. The nation loses $1,00O,-
100000 a year through ravages of in
sects which the birds can eliminate.
'Next year the country must double
its crop output to feed its army. 1t is
necessary, therefore, to have the best
crops we can obtain, and the way to
obtain them Is by bringing back the
BIRDS"
Mr.. Shoffner explained the impOr-
tance of erecting bird houses to take
the places of the thickets, the hollow
trees and other natural resting places
for the birds which have disappeared.

war tunes, songs and marches of the
last great war. while thousands of
young soldiers and officers In khaki
along the line of march gained inspi-
ration from the line of blue. Nearly
all of the A State departments of the
Grand Army were represented in the
parade. and many of the organizations
we're headed by their own bands. In
other cases the Department of Massa-
chusetts supplied the music, so that
the veterans kept step to well-known

Many of the soldiers carried bouquets
of flowers thrust into their hands by
spectators while every man proudly
wore on his blue coat his bronze medal
and usually some silk badge of his

BERMUDA IN FOOD CRUSADE
Government of Island Colony Urges
Farmers Not to Rely Further on
Imported Supplies.

United States Consul Carl r. Loop,
at Hamilton, says: The department
of agriculture of Bermuda has issued
a leafiet for general distribution
throughout the colony, urging on the
farmers the necessity of growing larger
quantities of food for home consump-
ton. 1t says in part:
"The government is most anxious
that farmers and others realize the
Importance under present conditions of
increasing local food supplies. The
high prices of imported fOodsEuffs,
which are likely to be still further in
creased In the future, add very great
ly to the cost Of living, and at the
present time it is patriotic duty for
all to do their utmost to insure the
practice Of economy in every depart
ment of life.
Heretofore the farmers of the col
Ony have depended too much on i'm
ported and too little on homegrown
foods. The present aim Of every farm
er should be to produce as much food
for his family and live stock as he can
grow with economy, and to have a sur
plus to sell. By so doing he can great
ly reduce his own cost of living and
at the same time lessen the colOny's de-
pendenee on imported foods. The high
cost Of imported fOOdstuffs should In
crease the demand for local grown
foods, and a market would seem to
be assured, especially for potatoes,
both Irish and sweet, and pigs"
