lOUelB silks!
The season of 1919
1920 will he remem-
bered in Fashion circles
as a SEASON OF
SILKS.
Silk! the loveliest, the
most alluring of all fab
rics; the softest in text
ure, the finest in finish,
the most versatile in its
adaptability to various
fascinating forms OF
weave
So that out of the
same cocoon, as it were,
can be drawn the shin
ing threads that make
the stately gros-graln
and the dainty, trans
parent chiffon, the
cleaning satin and the
sturdy tub silk
Silk never is out of
fashion, and never will
be, so long as it is man
ufactured.
But for this Fall and
Winter it will occupy
the supreme place as
Fashions acknowledge
favorite.
THERE are more
IL silks worn in Amer
lea today than were
ever worn before.
There are more silks
worn in America than
in any other country IN
the world.
To be well dressed,
every woman and every
civil must include in her
wardrobe at least one
silk frock.
Men, too, are wearing
silks to an extent never
known before. The
charm and the comfort
of the silk shirt are ir-
resistible.
And all things con-
sldered, IT is a wise taSh-
ion, for silks are econ
omical.

have attended these meetings each
night during the past week and that
in my judgment, the preaching of Mr.
Waters is sound and scriptural, Ger
tainly he is interesting, and his dis
course shows pains taking and
thoughtful care in preparation. His
presentation of the gospel truth is in
deed forceful.
The music, under the leadership
of Mr.. Wall, with Miss Hanson as
pianist, is inspiring.
These good people are in our midst
to lead us and help us in an effort to
strengthen our churches and save

Zeppelins Started
To Raid N. Y,
Last Summer

PHILADELPHIA, April 11.-That
Zeppelins actually started out from
Belgium for raid against New York
was the statement to-day of Major
Robert s. McCombs, who spoke at
the Northeast High School, Major
McCombs, physician, served in the
medical and air secrice of the British
government and was stationed on the
east coast of England.
He said the station was notified one
day last summer that a squadron of
five super-Zeppelins had left Zee
brugge, headed for New York. Avi-
ators from his station and neighbor-
ing station to the north set out in pur-
suit in powerful planes.
They caught up with the Germans,
and California aviator named
Lecky, who was in command of the
planes, destroyed the leader
Of the Zeppelins, which fell into the
sea in flames. Every available inch
of space aboard the Zeppelin was used
For the storage of petrol.
The remainder of the squadron re-
,urned to Zeebrugge.

WEARING SPURS IN CHURCH

Among the expenses of the privy
purse during the reign of Henry VII
appears this entry; "To the children,
for the Kings spurs, four-pence."
This probably refers to the payment
of "spur-money" to the choiristers
for the redemption of the royal spurs,
which the choir boys claimed as their
perquisite at the annual feast in hon
our of St. George. 1t was the GUS
tom to impose small tax on all those
who entered St. Paups, or any other
cathedral, wearing their spurs, as
this caused such a jingling and dis
turbance that it often drowned out
the voice of the priest. The collee-
ton of this money was left to the
choir boys and to the beadles, and an
old writer declares that it resulted in
the pouths neglecting their duty In
order to collect their dues.

This inquiry was raised by the Man

an American tobacco magnate had
Just arrived in England to prepare
for a"tobacco invasion" of England.
The leading tobacco firms here are
unable to confirm reports Of "war"
but admit that their agents are inves-

recently formed in the United States
with $17,0O0,OOO capital to enter for

In the Archangel
District Mutiny

WASHINGTON, April 11.-The
war department issued tonight an Of
ilclal statement confirming press dis
patches from Archangel that what
amounted to mutiny occurred among
the American troops there on March
80. A company of infantry, the mes
sage stated, refused to entrain for
the front until personally urged to
do so by Col. George f. Stewart COM
manding the American contingent.
Open threats were made of general
mutiny unless a definite statement
from Washing insuring early with
drawal was forthcoming.
The text of the paraphrase of the
code message dated March 81 fol-
lows, the department having elimi.
mated only the Identification of the
company and certain military infor-
nation not bearing on the incident:
yesterday morning, March 30, a
of infantry, having received
orders to railroad front, was ordered
out of barracks for the purpose of
packing sleds for the trip across the
river to the railroad station.
1.-THE non-commissioned officer who
was in charge of the packing soon re-
ported to the officers that the men re-
fused to obey. At this some of the
officers took charge, and all except
one man began reluctantly to pack
after considerable delay. The sol.
1ier who continued to refuse was
placed in confinement. Col. Stew

Upon the condition that the pris-
1ner above mentioned was released.

Body of Blount
County Man Is
Found In Creek

MARYVILLE, April 11.-Mystery
surrounds the death of William Dick
son, who disappeared from his noun
tain home more than three weeks ago
and whose nude body was found lodg-
ed against drift near the mouth of
Abrams creek Monday.
So far the only suggestion as to
how Dickson met his death is that he
was probably killed by moonshiners.
Dickson, with Dug Boring and
Hardy Beasley, was arrested by Fed
eral and state officers February %
on charges of illicit distilling and SELL
ing liquor. However, the moonshine
charge against Dickson was with
drawn by T. B. McIvins, field deputy
internal revenue collector, and he was
released on $3.50 bond in the state
case.
Boring and Beasley were held on a
bond of $1,000 each on the "stilIing"
charge and $3.50 each in the state
case. They gave bond, but early this
week their bondsmen withdrew and
the men are in jai here. Their cases
have been continued until the May
term of United States district court at
Knoxville.
When found in Abrams creek Mon
day, the body of Dickson was in an
advanced stage of decomposition.

Huns In Danzig
Flatter Yanks

NEW YORK, April II. The
American steamship West Humhaw,
the first allied merchant ship to enter
German port since America declar-
ed war, returned here yesterday from
Danzig. She left the Baltic port on
March 10 after delivering a cargo of
pork products sent from the United
States for the relief of the Poles.
Capt. Hatfield, commander, said
that everything was very quiet in
Danzig during the fifteen days that
his ship was there.
"The Germans" he said, laid
themselves out to fatter US Ameri-
cans. They were all friends of the
United States, according to them
selves, and blamed their troubles on
the English and French. As far as
could see they did not seem to have
many troubles. | have been many
times in German ports, but | never
saw people looking more prosperous
or better dressed than in Danzig. No
body was doing any work, but as the
government paid them eight marks a
lay for doing nothing they did not
seem to think there was any neces-
sity for working. The two things they
>ppeared very short of were soaD and
sugar. If man had a piece of soap
he locked it up in a safe and they
would steal anything sweet if it was
not nailed down"
Capt Hatfield said not much had
been done toward cleaning up the
mine fields in the North Sea and Bal
tic. His ship too six days zig-zagg-
ing along a three-mile passage
through the mine fields and he re-
ceived repeated warnings not to
anchor or even cast his lead. The
winds, he said, set loose focks of
mines and ships were in constant per-
' from these as we'll as from others
on the sea bottom in shoal water.
The West Humhaw brought guam
tity of mail fro mthe American navy
and army officers and other officials
