Henna, Turquoise and Gold.
So. when you see the splendid new
evening gowns in henna, turquoise and
gold. with great chains of bullion en-
| comprising the hips and tassels Of tur-
quoise hanging to the ankles. you may
let your mind flicker back to the an
cient history of Judea and remember
with a thrill what one British general
did to recover that land from the in
fdel.
There is gown worn this season in
America which could have been worn
in the presence of King David. 1t is
sketched today.
1t is of henna and gold brocade, soft
and snuous. trimmed with large tur-
quoiSe beads arranged in an embroid-
cry design. There is narrow edge of
turquoise satin ribbon that runs along
the embroidery. A heavy gold chain
goes about the waist and drops to the
bottom of the skirt with a ball of blue
turquoise at the end. There is buckle
of turquoise on the belt. The shoulders.
back and arms are entirely bare. The
slippers are of gold, and the stockings
of turquoise.
Although we in America do not ap-
prove of metallic brocade for summer,
which is a part and parcel of the re-
naissance of ancient splendor, it is best
to be warned beforehand that the i'm
porterS feel that a brocade season is to
come upon us next October. 1t is prom
ised by Paris that the fabric can never
become cheaply popular, for the reason
that the demand exceeds the supply. 1t
is said that the French factories are
not able to turn out a sufficient guam
tity of these sumptuous brocades to
supply the orders of the Paris dress
makers. If this is so. the woman who
likes brocade had better buy it now.

Fathers Arrive on Scene.

Sheriff Aud communicated by tele-
phone with the fathers of the young
folks and at their request held the
couple until the arrival of the two
men early last evening" With them
was a brother of the young girl. and
two of her sisters. who are making
their home in Washington. came out
earlier in the day and were with her
when the others arrived. The entire
party returned to Washington by an
evening train.
While some little feeling toward
young Love was manifested by the
relatives of the girl, nothing very un-
pleasant occurred and there seemed
to be a disposition on the part of all
hands to treat the matter as fool
ish prank on the part of mere chill
dren."

1t Is Possible That He May be
Asked to Preside
Over the
LEAGUE OF NATIONS

London, March 19.-There is a
strong feeling in political and di-
plomatic circles in Paris that Her
bert Asquith, the former British
Premier who consistently opposed a
greatly increased armament for En-
gland will be asked to be first Vice
President of the League of Nations.
Will Finish in Two Weeks
Paris, March 1Sth-The inclusion
of the constitution of the League Of
Nations in the preliminary draft
will not delay the signing of the
treaty which it is probable will be
accomplished within two weeks, ac-
cording to the announcement made
by Lord Robert Cecil in a talk to
the British and American newspa-
per men today. He said there we're
three amendments to the covenants
which had been subbitted but add
ed in his opinion there would be no
difficulty in meeting all of these OBJ
jections.

HINES GETS so MILLION
LOAN AS FIRST ADVANCE

Washington, March 1S.-Fifty
million dollars was loaned yester-
day to Director General Hines by
the war finance corporation as the
first advance for the Railroad Ad-
ministration since it was left with
out funds by failure of the congress
siona1 appropriation. Other loans
will follow as rapidly as they can be
arranged.
The loan was made to the Direc-
tor General as representative of
railroads which the War Finance
Corporation considers essential war
industries. Adequate collateral was
given in the form of railroad bonds
and notes, mainly, it is unders, ood
bonds of the Pennsylvania Railroad.
The loan was made at per cent,
the same rate as is charged by the
Director General for most advances
to railroads, and is payable July Is,
with the right on the part of the
Director General to repay before
that date.
The loan will rep1enish the Rail-
road Administration funds which
were almost exhausted owing to the
heavy demands and the failure in
Congress of the measure appropri-
ating $75,0O0,000 for the revolving
fund The Railroad Administration
is expected to use the money for its
more pressing obligations.

RAILWAY WAGE

Federal Manager wired Superin-
tendents of the Norfolk Southern
Railroad as follows:
1.-THE director-general advised
this morning that he has received
and is today promu1gating twenty
five interpretations made by the
board of wages and working condi-
tions upon various questions which
have been raised for Interpretation
as to application of wage scales and
working conditions. It is my un-
derstanding that some of these in
terpretations are those in which
some of the employees in this part
of the country are so interested and
have shown some impatience be-
cause of the delay in receiving
same.
Whatever delay there has been
has been occasioned by the large
amount of work of this fcnaracter
which has been throwIa upon the
Washington boards. WfH be glad
to have you give this iI1ormatlon

GLASS APPROVES
INSURANCE PLAN

Washington, March 19.-Secre-
tary Glass today approved regula-
tions governing conversion of SOL
diers' and sailors wartime insur-
ance to standard forms of govern
ment life insurance. The policies
will be ready for issuance soon and
the work of issuing and maintain
ing the policies is expected to make
the War Risk Bureau the largest
life insurance agency in the world.
A Treasury announcement ex-
planned that the forms of policies
which may be obtained at option in
exchan sc for term insurance of war
time, are ordinary life, twenty-pay-
ment life, thirty-payment life, twen-
ty-year endowment, thirty-year en-
at the age of 81.
1.-The premium rates for these
converted policies are lower than
those charged by private insurance
companies" said the announcement.
In previous announcement it was
said the rates would be 80 per cent
lower.
"The policies contain exceedingly
liberal privileges" containued the
announcement, providing for cash
and loan values, paid up and ex-
tended insurance, and further pro-
viding the insured will be paid for
life a monthly income in the event
he becomes totally and permanently
disabled. All of these policies are
incontestable from the date of issue
and are free from restrictions as to
residence, travel or occupation. The
holders of the policies will be eli
gible to share in and receive divi-
ends from gains and savings, the
proceeds of the policies are exempt
from taxation. Premiums may be
annually, semi-annually or quarter
ly. The monthly premiums, due the
first of each month may be paid at
any time during the month"
Secretary Glass expressed the
opinion the unusual values and
liberal provisions of the new forms
SHOULD encourage all holders of war
time term insurance to convert as
rapidly as their financial circum-
stances will permit, and in any event
to continue without fail the largest
possible proportion of their present
| Insurance.

$4,000 RAISED
FOR BUILDING
This Amount to Commemorate
the Memory of the Valiant
Deeds of
OUR BRAVE SOLDIERS

The members of the committee
who are out working to raise money
for the Memorial Building secured
$4,000 yesterday and the prospects
to secure a good sum are bright.
The country districts are not con-
tributing largely to the cause prob
ably because they do not under
stand that the rest room and the
other features of the building are
for their convenience when they
come to town.
OF course the building is prima
rily to honor the soldiers who made
the supreme sacrifice and some ex-
press themselves as saying that they
would be willing to give large
amounts for this purpose, while on
the other hand if they will think a
moment they will understand that
a building of this kind will honor
the boys more than a monument for
it will be impossible to place even
the names of the boys from Wilson
county who participated in the
war On monument, while in a me-
mortal building. there will be am
pie room for panels, commemorate
ing their deeds and also rooms to
store relics from the boys, and IN
this way we can create a Hall of
History.
The ladies are out today work
ing hard to increase the sum total
of the contributions to this worthy
cause

TIE RAINBOW
DIVISION
LENROOT OPENS UP
NEW THINK-TANK

Washington, March 19.-If Pres
ident Wilson does not negotiate a
peace treaty satisfactory to the Sen
ate, Senator Lenroot, of Wisconsin
Republican, said in an address on
the League of Nations before the
Washington Commercial Club here
last night, Congress may pass a
joint resolution summarily ending
the war with Germany without a
treaty, leaving American participa-
tion in the League of Nations to fu-
ture determination.
Senator Lenro0t declared he fa-
vored the general plan of the league
as proposed, but would not be CO.
creed into voting for the constitu-
tion as new drawn without an
amendment. Asserting that the
United States yesterday is in "a
most critical situation with Amer
lean principles and ideals endanger-
ed by the plans for the league, SEN
ator Lenroot continued.
1--WE are told that the President
will not permit peace with Germany
unless there is made as part of the
peace treaty the constitution of
the league as drawn in large part by
Great Britain We are told that
this will be done to force the Senate
to accept without amendment this
British constitution, revolutionizing
our government and it's foreign and
domestic policies. In other words
the Senate is to be coerced to do
something which It otherwise would
not do, and public opinion in Amer
ica is thus to be coerced into de-
manding ratification.

STATE FARM WILL
HOLD ITS COTTON

Raleigh, March 19.-The direc-
tors of the State Prison yesterday
signed the pledge to reduce the acre
age of cotton and to hold the thous-
and or more bales on hand for a
thirty-cent market. Even with re-
duced acreage, it is likely that the
State Farm in Halifax county, will
produce more cotton this year than
last.
The board goes home to consider
further and to determine at the
April meeting the disposition of the
States prisoners, the plan being to
sell the big farm in Halifax county,
establish a farm of about three
thousand acres with small modern
prison at some central point, and
put most of the convicts at work on
the public roads.

FOR INHUMANITY

Marietta, Ga, March 19.-Mrs.
Naomi v. Campbell was sentenced
by Judge N. A. Morris in Cobb
terday to serve two years at the

ing she had caused a four-year-old

charges of assault and battery upon
Mary Hozey, 13-year-old inmate
ments are pending against Camp

Both husband and wife, who are
81 years old each, denied the charges
of cruelty at their trials yesterday.

in a railroad accident had incapaci-
tated him for active work. Mrs.
Campbell termed all the charges
against her ''lies' and said 81 have
never been crazy and I am as truth
full as the day is long"
The specific charge against Mrs.
Campbell in her trial today was
that she hal cruelty whipped Sallie
Clayton, one of the children in her
care, and on another occasion had
scratched the child's body with hair
pins and also that after whipping her
had rubbed salt and pepper on her,
forcing the child to run up and down
hill as punishment, was told by an
other witness.
