For a number of years the eff
cheney of the Louisville Fire Depart
ment has been noted throughout the
United States. Chief Tim Lehan

Louisville Fire Department several
years ago, having won his promo

ties. starting from the ground and
working himself to the highest pin
nacle, and now being recognized
throughout the country as one of
che best fire fighters. Among the
many men under his supervision
there is not one who has not re-
ceived personal training in their
chosen profession. Among the
many fires that have been fought
in the past few years the praise of
Chief Lehan has been sung by the
entire population of this city for
the manner in which this dangerous
undertaking has been handled. One
OF the notices of Chief Lehan is

CHURCH CONVENTION
Held in Dover During the Early Part
Of the Week Attracts Many Dele
S''s gates From Over the District.

". One of the best conventions held in
this twelfth district in Kentucky by
the Christian Churches, came to a
close Tuesday night at Dover. There
WERE about two hundred delegates in
attendaiicN~ This is not counting the
people of g. who also attended
many of the sessiSa 49,
The first days sessiM was conduct
ed by the ladies in the interest of the
Woman's Missionary Society of the
Christian Church. 1t was an inspir-
ational session throughout. Mrs. Jen-
ME Zeigler of Orangeburg presided in
her own efficient way. She was re-
elected president of this division of
the work for this next year.
The sessions on Tuesday were in the
interest of State Missionary and Gen.
eral Bible School work. All the
preachers were well given. The Of
ficers for the next year will be l.. A
Warren of Elizaville, president; ]. T
Kackley, Maysville, vice president, and
Mrs. A. S. Poole, Brooksville, secre-
tary. The next convention will be
held in either Augusta or Ewing.
One of the important matters
brought. before the convention was
that of re-districting the state. In
stead of 20 districts as now, there will
likely be but eight. The twelfth dis
trict will be divided so that Bracken
Robertson and Mason will be in the
new seventh with other counties down
the river including Kenton, Boone, etc
Fleming county will be in the new
sixth with Fayette and others and
Lewis county will be in the new eighth
with those in the eastern part Of the
state.
The hospitality shown by the people
Of Dover was as good as best ever
shown in convention and made all
the visitors DESTROYS of expressing
their delight that this active little vii
lage had been given the privilege OF
entertaining the convention.

Steams into HarbOr to
Receive New Orders.

Queenstown, Ireland, May ia
squadron of American torpedo boat
destroyers has safely crossed the At
lantic and is patroling the seas in
war service.
The American navys actual entry
into the war zone has already been
productive of a brush between de-
stroyer and a German underwater
boat, according to an announcement
by the British admiralty, but the re-
suit of it has not been made public.
The destroyer squadron arrived In
Queenstown after an uneventful voy-
age across the Atlantic, but almost
Immediately after a formal exchange
Of greetings with the British naval
officials put to sea again for the hard
work that is before it.
A crowd of several hundred per-
sons, some of them carrying tiny
American flags, lined the water front
and cheered the destroyers from the
moment they first sighted the flotila
| until it reached the docks. The crowd
cheered again when a few moments
later the American senior officer came
| asore to greet the British senior Of
ficer and Wesley Frost, down the
American consul, who had come down
| 10 the docks. to welcome the f1otilla
| Everything was done in simple, bust
nesslike manner. There was an entire
| absence of formalities.
Met BY British Flotilla
| The commander of the British flo
| lilla was waiting on board his ship
and sent wireless greetings to the
American units as soon as they hove
in sight, steaming in long line into
the harbor.
After the exchange of short greet
ings and the British commanders had
congratulated the American officers
on their safe voyage, he asked:
"When will you be ready for bust
ness?'
ave can start at once" the Amer
lean commander replied promptly.
This response, so Enthusiastically
American, surprised the British COM
mander, who said be had not expect
ed the Americans would be ready to
begin work Oh this side so soon after
their long voyage. When he had re-
covered from his surprise, however,
he made short tour of the destroy
ers and admitted that the American
tars looked prepared.
"Yes." replied the American COM
mander, 1--WE made preparation on the
way over. This is why we are ready"
| The equipment on board the de-
stroyers was found to be in excellent
condition and remarkably we'll suited
to the requirements on this side of
the ocean. In fact, twas said by the
British officers that the only thing
lacking in the equipment of the needs
of the men were attended. It appear
ed that the Americans were wearing
clothing too light for the varying con-
ditions of weather they will encounter
in these waters This lack, however,
was quickly provided for.

These breakfast coats, as they are
known, may be made of silk, of satin,

They are vOluminOus In their lines and
are to be held in charming pastel tones
as well as in the vivid cOlOrs which
have become associated with the art

breakfast coats have wide collars that
are not unlike capes, and these are
edged with lace or with self ruches.
The sleeves are short and very wide
at their terminals. Pockets are con-
sidered an essential feature. and as
