SPURNS PROFITEERS'
Preacher Urges Baptist Church.
es Not to Accept Their
Gifts.

Baptist churches throughout
the country were urged to spurn
money offered by profteers,
"the meanest kind of thieves"
is a statement issued by the
Rev. Samuel Zane Batten, Sec
retary of Social Service Educa-
ton for the American Baptist
Publication Society.
Every Baptist Church, should
know whether its members are
engaged in this nefarious busi-
ness of profteering," said DIR.
Batten. "The Church should re-
fuse to touch the dirty money
of these people. No self-respec-
ting church would tolerate in
its fellowship person known to
be guilty of highway robbery or
horse stealing, and the sin of
profiteering is meaner, blacker
and more sinful than either Of
these. The Church must make
the will Of God plain on this
subject"

Out of hundred and fifty

month and a half, none were
fined, but were discharged for
the first offense. They were Civ

leaving a light burning, and, al
so, for using bright lights.
Some have become peeved that
they should be interferred with

pleasure and convenience and
have been reported as saying
some very foolish things, among
them being the statement that
"the officers were running peo-

tainly good riddance. Too many
auto drivers think they are a

WATER COMPANY IN
HANDS OF TRUSTEES
Creditors of The Company Pool
Their Interests For Pro-
lection.

Since the death of Gustav
Haerle, owner and manager of
the Lexington Water Company,
there has been much speculation
on the part Of the public as to
the future of the company, as
well as the future service, which
had been so adequate previous
to Mr.. Haerle's death. The pub
lie will be glad to know that
plans have been consumated
whereby the stability of the
company and a continuance of
service is assured.
A contract has been entered
into by all the creditors, both
resident and nonresident,
wherein a board of trustees is
created and all claims 'hypothe-
Gated with view Of liquidating
the debt and insuring uninter-
rupted service without the ex-

Passed a RAISED" Bill.

Lee Gulley. who recently re-
turned from a soujourn in JEFF
ferson City, was arrested Fri
day for passing a made-over
one dollar bill. He bought a tick
ct at the Pacific station for Kan
sas City, and gave a ten dollar
bill in payment. The agent soon
after discovered that the ten
had originally been a one, and
Gulley's arrest soon followed.
Gulley claims innocence in the
matter-he didn't know that the
bill had been "raised"-and
probably didn't.

Faculty Concert.

Monday evening. AS in former
years the occasion had been
looked forward to with interest
and expectation. 1t was, there
fore, a large audience and one
that represented the best of us
musically that greeted the par
ticipants in a choice program,
sufficiently varied to enlist and
retain the strictest attention
from first to last.
The first number was Gatty
Sellars' Overture Fantastique, a
work embracing contrasting
themes and interesting develop
ment. Mr., Conrad played the
composition with the utmost
freedom and effective registra-
ton. Responding to spontaneous
applause he gave an organ ar
rangement of the Land Of the
Sky, Blue Water"
The vocal contributions were
furnished by Miss Edyth M
: Carver, Soprano. The selections
for this occasion were an old
French Air and an excerpt from
Tosca; the former was sung in
French and the latter in Italian.
Miss Carver appeared later in
the program giving two English
songs with such acceptability
: that the audience demanded
, another number; and the en-
core was Zone Fleeting Hour"
: by Dorothy Lee.
Mr.. Little's part in the pro-
gram was upon an instrument
too rarely heard; for the Violon-
. cello combines the best qualities
2 of the Baritone and Tenor voice.
2 He gave for the first number
] La Reve, by Goltermann. And
upon insistent applause he gave
a delightfully."- appealing rendi-
ton of Nevin's Love Song.
= Miss Malone who has appear
ed frequently in Lexington with
: superior gifts and personality
contributed double number
= consisting Of the Fifth Nocturne
] by Chopin and the G minor Pre-
: lude by Rachmaninoff. A relent-
less audience was rewarded
with Grieg's March of the
DwarfS.
A violin in the hands of Miss
Emory Todhunter is always a
happy event and this occasion
only confirmed former opinions.
= She was most artistically sup
: ported in accompaniment by
= Miss Katherine Todhunter. At
ter selections by Kreisler and
Hubay, Miss Todhunter respond
ed with the Menuet in G by
2 Beethoven.

2 gram. Both selections from the

wanted more; but evidently Mr..

We have quit imagining, and
have gone to realizing, that in
this advanced day one must keep
adding new ideas, and theories
to his business, in order to keep
up with the times, and also,
stay in the class known as "A
NUMBER ONE" That is just
why we have spent so much
money on equipment, and the
best mechanics the country af-
fords.
In your motoring career you
have, no doubt, had the sad ex.
perience of breaking a spring,
or possibly a frame on your car.
Now, in your opinion it was
necessary for you to spend no
small sum. of money to replace
the broken parts with new ones;
but if you had known about our

paired for a small fraction of
what the new ones would have
cost you, and they would have
been better than new; because,
we not only weld them together;
but reinforce them as well.
Thousands of dollars could be
saved by motorists each year,
should they only bear in mind,
that it isn't absolutely necessary
to replace broken parts with new
ones every time a break occurs.
Many people have the idea
that welding is only a temporary
method of repairing, and only
count on it holding, until new
parts can be obtained. This,
however, is the wrong way to
look at the proposition; because,
as stated before, parts that are
welded correctly are stronger
than new ones.

BLACKS AND BROWNS AGAIN
Sober colors Just Now Showing Re-
ViVsl Of Popularity Hard
to Account for.

Why the recent vogue for black eve
ming frocks?
At the present time there is just
the right setting for colors 50 brilliant
and colorful-and gaudy. II you will
a 10 suit the most primitive Of us.
Fact is. dark colOrs were put on the
shelf when the armistice was signed
and there was striking showing Of
colors Of brilliant hue.
But these new black frOcks that
good many smart women are getting
are rather different. They are of lace
and they are sometimes trimmed with
brilliant ribbon or silk sashes. They
are as diaphanous and as sprightly as
the wing Of dusky butterfly. Still
they are black. and IL does seem
strange that one should want To wear
black when peace has come and sum-
mer Is here.
But even odder is the persistence OF
the brown frock. This made its APP
pearance just before the end Of the
war. and IL was extremely smart, but
with the craze for bright Victory col
ors il went into short retirement. only
a. blossom forth more interesting chan
ever. And this is even stranger be-
cause now that IL is summer one would
think that brown. which Is warm, If
any color ever was. would have no
place in our wardrobes. But somehow
Il is true that the brown frock even in
the evening has a certain distinguish
ed appearance that is hard to ac-
count for.
Sometimes 1t Is a golden brown that
goes very well with metallic gold and
bronze tissue in evening gowns. and
then sometimes II Is mord0re. red
dish brown. And by the way there is
an accent on that "e." giving 70 the
word three syllables, a fact that does
not seem 20 be- recognized by all who
speak Of the color.
