pears at Loew's Columbia Theater
in Heart of Gold" a story which Is
built around a contest for a dress
design which won a famous garment
makers prize The design which rs
featured in the production was orig
inally the famous Heart Of Cold
dress. Through the efforts of Man
ager Frederick b. Klein, OF DOew-s
Columbia. the manufacturers Of Co
Ed dresses have brought living
models who will display New YorlIs :
latest creations in dresses for the
early spring season In style review
Thursday, Friday and Saturday, this
week This showing is doUbly inter
esting in view OF the fact that =.
KanRs Sons Co. are showing the
entire line of Co-Ed dresses which Will
be featured in this style display.
The innovation Of a stage review OF
advance styles that have never be-
fore been shown in Washington Il
further enhanced by the fact that
the famous dress seen on this occa-
sion was the practical cause for the
production of the Heart OF Gold.
Four Of the models TO be shown are

leading feminine characters in Oliver

Some time ago this little dancing

a hit here at the Gayety Theater and
from the appreciation evidenced this
week she has lost none of the en-
thusiastic response which has await
ed her here in past years.

This is little Miss Props doctrine
which she practices to great success
much to her satisfaction and happi-
ness, as well as that of her friends.
Miss Propp believes there is more
opportunity in burlesque than in reg
ular musical comedies and as she has
been in both she ought to know which
form of drama is best adapted to her
style of talent.

 heart was grieved at the great loss to
 his family, his friends and the county

 manhood, for he was only 29 years of age. His intellect was just reaching full maturity, and the potent forces alive and active in him for usefulness were at their best when they were stilled forever by the ruthless hand of death It was sad to see. his young, manly form consigned to the dust from which it came. It was sad to know that his career of usefulness was so suddenly ended, but it was much sadder to witness the grief of the wife who had joined her life to his for better and for worse and to witness the hopeless sorrow of the

llVc yOuHS cHlluTeH OI CHelT marriage. He who commands us to visit the widow and the orphan in their dis tress will surely not withhold the balm of Gilead from the wounded hearts of mother and children. We pray that they may be comforted by the eternal hope of the immortality of the soul. To wife,. children, father, mother, brothers, sisters and other relatives we commend the language of inspiration: ''Now he is dead. Wherefore shall I fast? Can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me-"
 All who knew him enjoyed his bright, sunny smile, and the joyous ness of a big heart. He identified himself with every movement to ad- vance the material, social and politi- cal interest of his county and state. He was courteous, capable officer. He was true to every cause he es- poused; faithful to friends and gen. erous to foes. His devoted constitu- ents who had given him a second nomination for county clerk, were shocked when called to his last rest ing place to hear the dull sound as it rose from his grave, sadly announcing the emptiness of earthly honors. All such honors will be empty when the Son of Man shall come in his glory to judge us.
 Every child born in this world has closed hands indicative of that char acteristic of the human family to grasp and hold to the things of earth, but when death comes the palms are wide open, signifying that we must meet our God empty -handed-that we can take nothing with us. Only through faith in Christ and love of the brethren can we secure the place of honor on His right.
 In mourning for him, we do not grieve as those who are without hope. To us there is heavy loss, but to him we reverently believe there has come great gain. The pleasures of living, the joys of existence, are of no per- manent value. The great value of life is in the opportunity it gives for the making of character. Everything but character we must leave behind when life is ended. The character which is formed within us during life, whether long or short, makes us what we are. The greatest thing in the world, therefore, is the formation of good and noble character.
 Such being our belief, we shall not think that because our friends life

Light Coal Tax
Is Thought of Now

1t is understood at the Capitol that
Governor Sproul does not object to
a light tax on anthracite coal, but
whether any delegation on that sub
ject will be presented or not is un-
known. ..,.... f-
The Governor knows the situa-
ton in the Scranton region where
the caveins have made trouble and
it is said that he thinks that some
of the tax should go to places where
the coal is mined. Where surface is
affected this money should be used
for relief but where there is min
ing as in the .Lykens Valley it could
be employed for local purposes.
Governor Sproul has accepted an
invitation to go to Johnstown next
week to attend the reception to be
given in honor of the homecoming
of General Charles T. Menoher,
commander of the Rainbow division,
who is Pennsylvania. Next Sat-
urday he will visit Syria Temple,

PEARLS GO UP

New York.-A compilation by the
National City Bank of New York
shows that previous stones of val
ue of $31,9S4,000 We're imported in
to the United States in 1918 against
$47,721, 900 in 1917 and $33,375,O0O
in 1914. The importations of pearls
were valued at $1,600,0O0 in 1918
against SS,932,000 in 1917 and $4,-
264,000 in 1914. Importations of
diamonds amounted to $2S,0OO, 900
against $34,521, 900 in 1917, and
$25,315, 1000 in 1914. These figures
show the falling off in the importa-
tions of diamonds and pearls, still
the most fashionable of Jewels caus-
ed by the war and throw some light
on the one-third advance scored by
the price of diamonds during the
war and the almost 100 per cent ad-
vance in the price of pearls.

cross of honor for extraordinary
heroism in action near Montfaucon.
France, from the 26th to the 30th of
September. During the entire fou.
days of action Sergeant Phillips ex-
posed himself to the dangers of ar
tillery and machine gun fire, assist
ing in every way possible to insure
the success of the advances. He
made repeated trips to the rear and
either urged his comrades forward
or led them up to their positions,
SO strenuously did he labor during
the entire action, that at the end pi
the fourth day he was SO exhausted
from strain and shell shock that he
was taken from the field.
