Palm Beach and other Winter re-
sorts have confirmed the smart styles,
and as a result we have a bevy of in
teresting designs for the new ward
robes. Long, tight skirts were accept
ed fairly well, but the American
woman has long wanted comfort
combined with smartness. So up go
the skirts, just as Paris said they
would, and now we are on peace terms
with the Partisan couturiers. 1t will
be remembered that that was the one
point the American woman disagreed
with. The fact that a skirt could be
short and tight at the same time and
still retain grace was inconceivable
to our most radical designers. And
though we have acquiesced it must be
admitted that the frock or suit with
the tight skirt must court the ankles
to look it's best.
Skirts of Sumptuous Drapery.
Being adopts at substitution the
American designers created the drap-
ed skirts to take the place of the long,
extremely narrow and uncomfortable
hobbies. The drapery is not limited
to any particular place, such as the
sides or back, but it may be one-sided
or looped up gracefully at the front
or pulled recklessly tight across the
front or back. Of course, tailored
models do not sponsor the drapery,

claimed the enthusiastic buyer when
a coy little manikin appeared on the

leather. And prehistoric seems to me
an excellent characterization of these
new fads of fashion. Made on the
lines of the ordinary waistcoat, and
some with high collars, they seem
quite the right finishing-touch for the
Spring suit that has aspirations to be
called unusual.
More demure and dainty are the
rather stiff and clean-cut ones of

Organdie and Taffeta.
A combination of unusual interest
is that of organdie and taffeta. The
organdie is oftentimes checked OF
striped and the taffeta is usually Of
a contrasting color. This combination
is quaint, and one must take great
care in the harmony of color or thu
entire effect is lost. It will be uset

WESLEY Bible CLASS
FEDERATION OF THE
JORDAN GLASS

The Wesley Bible class of the Jor-
dan charge held at Union church, Will
son, S. c., on June 8, 1919.
The meeting was presided over by
the president, Mrs. L. M. Galloway
who has faithfully served in this posi-
tion since the institution of Fedora
tion day, and to whom is also due
much Of the credit for the organiza-
tion of the Wesley Bible Classes on
the charge.
The Devotional exercises of the
| morning session were conducted by
Rev. j. T. Mcfarland.
The regular secretary being absent,
Miss Lille Plowden was elected to
take her place.
The first address was by Mrs. Clay
r. Smith, Elem, Supt of the S. G..
Conference. She very impressively
presented the subject of social service
She emphasized the fact that service
to be of value must have love as its
motive. She quoted this scripture,
Thou Shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart and with all thy
soul and with all thy mind, and thy
nelghbor as thyself." She said in or
der that the church might be com
posed of men and women who are
filled with the desire to spend and be
spent in the service of the Master,
that the S. S. must cultivate i'm the
child heart Of compassion and a
desire to help those in need. That
the child must be trained up actually
dong these things thus instilling
within him conscious loyalty to
Jesus Christ.
The second address was made bv
Rev. w. G. Owen. S. S. Field Secre-
tary of the TOW S. G.. Conferences. His
subject was: "Not by might nor by
power but by my spirit, saith the
Lord" He said that the Lord is
bringing US to realize this fact more
and more. He pictured Greece to us
In all Of her architectural beauty and
magnificent paintings, and also
Rome in all OF her military honor and
glory, and showed how because they
were not founded upon Christian prin
ciplps they came to nauCht. With
these and other instances he came on
down to the present day dawnfall Of
Germany. lie said that God has His
eyes on His people and comes to them
when tbs time is ripe. That in the
rise and fall Of The nations that God
has been preserving those whom he

could depend upon. He asked this
question, "ls man pulling upon God,
or IS God, with His hand upon the
helm, pulling upon MANI" He men
toned the fact that we are living in
a glorious age, but that we do not ap-
preclate it. He stressed the fact that
we need to make the conditions around
the child life sue hthar he will grow
up to love and work for his neighbor.
thus promoting the spirit which the
Wesley Bible Glasses and Federation
day stand for.
After the announcements and an
pointments Of committees the meeting
was adjourned that we might partake
OF the bountiful lunch which was serv-
ed upon the grounds. A.
In the afternoon Mr.. Owen spoke Of
the three S. S. Teacher Training
schools of the State, and emphasized
the Importance of trained teachers.
Rev. G. B. Smith of Manning de-
hvered very able address on the i'm
portance of Organization. He said
that in order that there be no waste
Of energy or inefficient work done
that organization is essentially i'm
portant, both in the political and re-
hgious affairs Of life. RE gave as the
constitution of the S. S. Jesus Christ
and Him Crucified." He ais stressed
the Importance of preparation Oh the
part Of the teachers.
The last address wa.s made bv Rev
w. 0. Henderson, former pastor of the
charge, and organizer of this Wesley
Bible Class Federation. He received
o warm welcome from these people.
His subject was the New Epoch in the
Christian Era. He mentioned the
Epocn when God created man the
Epoch o fthc Flood and then came on
down to the Christian era. He en-
phasized the fact that this is a dav
of soldiership. And put the question
as to whether the soldiership Of the
church is comparing favorably with
the soldiership Of the world. He said
that on account Of the great spiritual
awakening brought on by the war, on
account of the great opportunity given
TO US to take possession of Palestine
and because the time IS so ripe for
mission work, that it Is imperative
that we fight as never before for the
advancement Of Christ's Kingdom.
The reports of the committee were
given, and the following officers were
elected for the coming year: Presi-
dent, DR.. Plummer Clark: Vice Presi.
dent, w. e. Broadway; Secretary,
Miss Lille Plowden; Treasurer, Mr..
Madison Strange. Jordan church was
