USE TOUCHES OF EMBROIDERY
New Summer Frocks Are Handsomely
EmbelIished With Charming and
Modish Decoration.

Modish Decoration.
So many Of the new summer froeks
show touches Of embroidery that am
going to tell you about them. and per-
haps you will find something you care
about, writes a fashion correspondent.
A sheer linen frock which will suit the
slender girl has a deep collar, one
would almost say a bertha. and the
skirt draperies, both soft and graceful,
curve in scallops of blue linen, often
marked with small blue flowers, which
are embroidered in wash silk. Be-
hind this demure frock flares large
bow.
Sheer navy blue linene is another
charming frock, which is pierced
throughout with dark blue eyelets. for
eyelets are now constantly recurring
in the mode.
A wonderful evening gown which Is
very striking and vivid IS one OF shot

drapery and the side. The reverse side
of the fabric shows CLEAN of solid
green. It has lace underskirt, which
is of needle-run net. On this frock,
too, the floral garniture plays an i'm
portant part.
The spoils of ancient Egypt have
been garnered for the adornment OF
the twentieth century woman. An eve
ming frock made of peacock velvet has
a quantity plated skirt that lifts
trifie in front, with an inverted plat
showing a lining Of gold tissue shot
with blue. It has a typically Egyptian
girdle of gold tissue embroidered with
the characteristic peacock plumage COL
orings, gold, tawny bronze and vivid
blues and green's find acceptance. A
tulle drapery of pale smoky blue floats
from the shoulders and wells the wear
er's arms.

"Methodistn Church.

The word methodist" is derived
from a Greek word, meaning method
or rule. It was applied in derision
to those following the methods Of
John Wesley, but he accepted the term
and made it feature that the rules
and methods Of the Savior were fol-
lowed.

MUST MELT BELL IN TOWER

The 2-ton bell which hangs in the tower of the St. Louis city hall has made the tower unsafe, but the bell is so large it would be dangerous to try to take it down, so it is to be melted right where it is with acetylene blow torches, such as are commonly seen in use by workmen repairing car tracks.
 Building Commissioner Mckelvey pronounced the tower unsafe as long as the bell remains, because the steel supports have become corroded. More over, he said, an attempt to lower the bell would be very dangerous, there fore the decision to take it down a bucketfull at time.
 The only time in recent years that the bell has been rung was the day of the armistice celebration. It was rung when the building was constructed in 1904. The bell cost about S2,000. The expense of removing it will be about $1,500. It is six feet high and four feet in diameter at the base.
