CONGREGATIONS WILL
CONSIDER FINAL PLANS
Meeting. Wednesday Evening, of
First and Central Presbyterian
Churches on Merger.

Congregations Of First and Central
Presbyterian Churches will meet in First
Presbyterian Church next Wedn, sday
evening to consider final plans for the
amaIgamntion Of the two churches OFF,
cials OF both churches deny there has been
any change in their plan TO build eventually
a community church structure on the site
of the present First Presbyterian Church.
The Central Church property on King
street, near Eighth, Is on the market.
At the vote for consolidation considerable
sentiment WAS expressed and still exists
against selling the old church property
without entailing IL in some manner ns
TO restrict the future usc OF the site 10
purposes not antaRonistic 10 tho religious
principles of the Presbyterian Church.
Judge William s. Pr,ckett yester-
day denied the report that Max Keil
and Samuel Greenbaum have offered
$4,000 for the property. A committee,
composed of four members representing
each congregation, met Tuesday night,
md went over the consolidation in nll its
phases. Andrew c. Gray, of First Pr~by-
tcrian Church, said yesterday there was no
legal barrier 10 the sale Of the firrt Church

who must have a good din
ner-set at a moderate price.
These American dinner
sets are good--none better
made in this country, al
though not yet, Of course,
equal in perfection Of
process 10 the famous
French and English makes
and are full sets of 10s
pieces; yet they are priced
only $3.50 20 S47.50 dur
ing the Spring Sale.
Ordinarily they sell for
20 to 33 1-3 per cent. more
and are fully worth it.
They illustrate admir-
ably our national spirit
that Of ambition and rapid
assimilation Of art and
knowledge: for American
semi-porceiain is being
made better and better
every year. Those who. a
short time ago. were in the
habit of buying foreign
wares only, are now as
ready and proud to patron
ize the wares of their own
country as we ourselves
are.
Another American trait
appears in the wide divers
ity OF patterns, showing the
traditional Yankee inven-
tiveness.

Sale, and is taking hold"
fast.
This infant industry"
which we are glad to en-
courage, was no more than
fairly started in a few en-
terprising American pot
teries, when the entrance
of our country into the war
interrupted it, through the
Communicating of the pot

ernment service.

and we have been fortunate
enough to secure some of
the finest output to sell for
$40 to $40 a set. Border
patterns mostly.
These dinner-sets sell
usually for 10 to % per
cent. more.
This excellent grade of
goods, it may be added, can
be found only in this Store.

French China

owes a part Of its distinc-
ton to the character Of the
clay Of which it is made,
which, when glazed in the
fire, takes a whiteness and
a lustre which excel those
of all other wares.
Notice the surface OF
your French china plate.
Is It not smooth, glossy
and richly white as the
petal of a magnolia?
Only the cunning of the
French potter. too, can pre-
pare and apply the French
gold, which in encrusta-
ton, tracery. or clouded
effect adds so much to the
beauty of the typical Linn
oges china.
In appearance it is rich
er. and it wears longer,
than any other gold used
in china manufacture.
The graceful shapes and
exquisite patterns charac-
teristic of the French china
are almost without excep-
ton the creations Of native
artists.
They reflect the art of
an old and opulent civiliza-
ton, conservative, yet fer
tile in ideas, and pains
taking in its methods,
which include peculiar un-
derstanding of color effects.
Each French factory
usually makes its own col
ors, instead of drawing
from a general source of
supply. This assists in
maintaining the individual
charm of the various makes
of china.
And nothing is too much
trouble for these patient,
clever French artists and
artisansl

suggested by the CHEEKY,

There is altogether no
higher value in this entire

1t is also what secures un-

English makers-a Doul-
ton or a Grindley, a john

Like the French, the
English prefer to originate
their own designs and if
they borrow, it is from the
French alone.
One of their cleverest ef-
fects is the frequent pro-
duction of rich and hand
some designs without the
employment of gold.
1t is a mistake, easily
corrected by a glance
around the English dinner
sets offered in this Sale, to
think that the English use
