doom OF THE SKIRT

Not the least of the benefits which
we shall derive from the terrible war
is abolition of the short skirt, that
abomination in the sight of the truly
righteous. A benefit, we say, because
with its going we shall, we hope, be
rid of that dour killjoy, the irrecon-
cilable prude who delights in nothing
else so much as the shock glimpse
of feminine ankles gives. The mill
ions do not see them; the dozens do,
and what noise they do makel So
the short skirt is to go. But-the
long skirt is not coming back. In
stead i. is to be trousers for milady.
Of that there can be no doubt
When the Red Cross girls made
their appearance in the street rugged
out in those nifty uniforms which per-
NIT them so much freedom they at
tracted no chances save those Of admi-
ration. And the approval was more
of the common sense than of anything
else displayed. After a few days no.

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the substi.

of DR.. Edwards determination not to treat

STOLEN LAUNDRY, AND
CATS ON CHURCH ROOF

Moy Set is a Chinese laundryman
in Chicago. On Saturday night he
went to see his Sunday School teacher
student in the Women's Department
of the Moody Bible Institute. On re-
turning to his shop he found that a
large amount of the laundry on hand
had been stolen. Fear filled his heart
as he thought of the angry people
clamoring for their laundry the next
week
He called his teacher on the tele-
phone.
please pray about it." he said, "for
God can make them bring it back"
The teacher reported the theft to the
police, but they found no clew and
did nothing.
Now the Chinese Christians have
wonderful way of taking God at His
word Missionaries are often put TO
shame by their own converts because
they lack faith to stand on some of the
Scripture promises. whereas the
Chinese expect fulfillment of them as
a matter of course.
Moy Set continued to pray about his
loss and kept insisting, GOD can
make them bring it back"
What do you suppose happened?
The following Tuesday prepaid pack
age was delivered to Moy Set contain
ing the stolen laundry.
The same young woman relates the
following:
Mark Wong was a laundryman just
like the one that is just around the
corner from where you live. He had
been in America for year and was
attending the Mission Sunday School
regularly every Sunday afternoon.
There he learned to talk and read
English and at the same time he was
being taught the Christian religion.
For some time Mark had been trou-
bled with doubts concerning the eff
cacy of the Chinese gods, and there
was a growing conviction in his mind
that the Christian God who could do
things. when letter from his cousin
in China precipitated matters. This
was the contents of the letter:
Back in China Marks cousin had
been attending meetings at the Mis-
sion house near their home in Canton.
One Sunday morning. while meeting
was in session, a number of cats col
lected on the roof of the meeting
house and set up such a yowling that
it was impossible to continue the
meeting. The whole congregation
went out and began throwing stones
at the cats on the roof, but the cats
would not bulge. When the Chinese
boys saw that they could not brighten

There was great rush at the court

of men were standing in line to secure
their gunner's license at the Office of
the Clerk of Court.
That urbane and obliging official,
and his deputies. were kept busy all
morning giving out licenses to sports
men who will be up and doing on
Monday, at break of day. 1t is case
of Johnny get your gum" and Johnny
has been cleaning his gun preparatory
to going cunning for several days
past.
Up to noon today the Clerk of the

censes, and there were more appli-
cants in line waiting their turn.
1t will probably be necessary to
keep the Office open today longer than
usual. as it closes on Saturday the

ditions.

amusing comedy, Mr. Fix T." will be
the very enjoyable attraction at the
Colonial this evening. Reginald Bur-
roughs, graduate of Oxford College,
England, is scheduled to take charge
OF his American property. He dis
likes the idea of joining his family of
prosey aun.s, when he considers his
fiancee, Marjorie Threadwell. Accord

Mr. Fix It." his room mate, to imper-
senate him. Mr.. Fix It." goes, is ac-
cepted as the head OF the house, and
is also notified that he is TO marry

out. Also he becomes acquainted with
Mary Mccullough, falls in love with
her, adopts her numerous little broth
ers and sisters, and works wonders
in the way of changing the dispo-
sitions OF the aunts from sour to sweet
Mary thinking he is to marry Olive,
Mary thinking he is TO marry Olive,
suit, and after a number of adven-
lures, returns TO find Mary emerging
from her room, where she had been
waiting until things were quiet before
leaving, but she changes her mind
when her energetic love approaches
Mr.. Fix II" is genuine rip-roaring
comedy, alive with situations in which
the celebrated Fairbanks smile flashes
brilliantly, while the owner thereof
plays his role with magnetic dash
and ginger, and keeps the audience
in a perpetual gale of laughter through
every reel The action of this COM
edy is, of course, Of the whirlwind
sort, and It is safe to say that it is
truly one of "Doug's" very best COM
edies. A screamingly funny Mack
Sennett comedy also.
This is a dandy comedy treat this
evening, so don't fail to enjoy it. Mon
day, Marguerite Clark in, "Out of a

ed that they go back into the meeting
house and pray about it. This they did
and soon the yowling stopped. The
congregation all fiocked out again to
see what had happened and found the
roof cleared of cats.
Mark read the letter and told his
teacher about it and then in a sweet,
chidlike way added, what you tink,
God kicked the cats off the roof"
Mark was assured by his teacher
that God answers prayers and that He
is interested in anything that annoys
US. Soon after this, Mark came and
asked to be baptized.
