century mas gwen place 10 me popu-
lar Christmas hymn of later days.
Wherever the English language Is
spoken Charles Wesley's hymn, "Hark,
the Herald Angels Sing" finds place
In the sanctuary. 1t is also translated
into the languages Of India, China and
Japan. It's author was the brother of
the founder of Methodism, He was q
true poet and a perfect hymn writer.
His masterpiece is the beautiful hymn
"Jesus, Lover Of My Soul" which was
sung by the Princess Alice at the
deathbed of the prince consort of
England, the lamented husband Of
Queen Victoria.
"Come all We faithful" is the
"Adeste Fideles" OF the Latin, and
came originally from the pen of
Aurelius Clemens Prudentius, n native
of Spain, who holrished about the
latter half Of the fourth century.
There is another hymn by the same
Latin author which begins with "Of
the Fathers love begotten."
We have two well-born Christmas
carols by American writer's. 20 Little
Town of Bethlehem" was written by
the popular Boston divine, Phillips
Brooks. "Shout the Glad Tidings, EX-
ulting Sing" was composed by DR..
Muhlenburg, the founder of the Church
of the Holy Communion, st. Luke's
hospital, and other charities in New
York city.
"AngeIs from the Realms of Glory"

The two eminent sweet singers Of
the church. John Keble and Reginald
Heber, bishop Of Calcutta. have writ
ten Christmas hymns, but they laci
those elements of popular song which
| constitute the Christmas carol. KebIt
sweetly sings:
| Like circles widening round
Upon a clear blue river.
Orb after orb the wondrous SOUND

| Glory to God on high. on earth b.
peace.
The lines Of the gentle Heber have
their lesson in these days of CONNER

In dangerous wealth we dwell;
Remind us Of thy manger bed

In history is the "Gloria In ExcelSiS"
found in the Roman mass, and In the
Episcopal Book Of Common Prayer. 1t
is ascribed to TelesphOrus. bishop of
Rome, about the year A. D. 1870, and
is common In both the eastern and
western churches.
An old English carol begins with the
notable words:
Behold a simple. tender babe
In freezing winter night,
In homely Manager trembling les
Alas, a piteous sight.
The "higher critics" have wonder ed
how the shepherds could watch. their
hocks by night, even in winter in
Judea, but this presented no difficulty
to Robert Southwell, the author of this
quaint carol, who as a Jesuit was an
prisoned in the Tower Of London. and,
after enduring the tortures Of the rae X,
was executed in 1894.
A popular carol among the Germ@n1
is one written by Martin Luther 9o1'
his little son Hans. It begins:
From the highest heaven come to tell
The gladdest news which e'er befell.
A very sad story is told In cOnnec-
tion with this carol. In order to give
it realistic effect In a certain Luther
an church 1t used to be sung by q boy
let down from the, roof Of the church
dressed as an angel. But one day the.
rope broke, and the boy was killed..
This put an END, to very beautiful but
dangerous Christmas custom.
At a time when the 1iturgical and
biblical plays were popular the
Christmas carol was an important
feature. In Italy In the time Of st.
Francis. Of Assist, In, order to instruct
the people, the Villagers came to the
church carrying lighted torches, and
there they saw the, scene Of the man
ger filed with hay. and the OK and ass,
standing in their places near tn,
Virgin and Child. Then It was this {
st. Francis and his friars stood by Tie
manger all night long, giving God
thanks that by this means the hearts
Of the people had been touched.
"Rare old Ben Jonson," In the days
of the GOOD Queen BeSs," wroSe a
carol which begins II sing the Birth
was born tonight" And about that time
appeared very popular carol which
Is sung In ''Merrie England" even to
the present day. the first line of which
is "GOd rest you. merrie gentlemen"
Some old Christmas carols have come
down to us in half Latin and half
English. Among them Is a carol which
appears in the COLLECTION for Grace
church, New York city:
When Christ was born fof pure Marie
In Bethlehem, that fair cite,
Angels sang with mirth and gIee
In Excelsis Gloria.
In this "Grace collection" there Is
carol commencing ~Over the world on
Christmas morn" by Dr.. Mackay
Smith.

bic. These lie very fat The skirt
has corresponding pleated panel in

below the hem Of the skirt itself.

Erminette Exploited
By Paris Designers

A FEW years ago, when women
wore white furs in the swelter-
ing heat of summer, the craze for
white fur reached such an extreme
that for some time following the
we'll dressed woman was loath to
wear any white fur. We can only
hope that this present-day revival
will not run to any such extreme.
For the present, at least, snowy fur
trimmings are on models from the
most exclusive houses.
Erminette is being extensively ex-
plotted as trimming by the Paris
designers. This fur very closely re-
semblen real erminA. auA of tia xal&a
New-York tribune., 1920-10-03

always greatly in vogue. While it Is
not as expensive as the real fur, it is
not cheap. AS we'll as being used
for trimming in the form Of mar
row edging and for large collars and
deep cuffs, it is combined with seal
in evening wraps. White skunk is
used to make great muffling collars
and deep cuffs on the most elaborate
Of evening wraps, some Of the new
est Of which are formed of beauti-
full silver brocades.
One great designer has invented
an entirely new shoulder line Of
Greek influence in which the materi-
al is held up over one shoulder and
cut to appear as though falling of
the other. The dresses Of Greek de-
sign fit into the present-day fashion

n In dresses. Tho romantic
morganatic marriage Of the
young King Of Greece and his June
visit to his bride living in Paris set
the French dressmaker to thinking
Of the beautiful possibilities for fall
fashions in the native Greek COS
tune, both ancient and modern, the
result being a decided Greek note
in the autumn collections.
The wife Of the King Of Greece.
who is very beautiful, and her
younger sister, equally lovely, wear
charming Partisan clothes. The
youth and beauty Of these two girls
plus the royal romance Of one of
them appeal to the creative genius
of the Paris dressmaker and mil
liner, consequently "a la Grecque"
will be very fashionable in Paris. AS
there is so much Of real merit in
Greek inspiration, one may expect
many lovely things during the com
ing winter.
Greece is only one Of the many
countries to which designers have
turned for their inspiration. Max
ers of clothes appear loath to give
up any successful idea that has been
brought ont recently, and we find
the old mingled with the new.
The Egyptian influence is still
felt, as is the Italian Renaissance.
To Persia have dressmakers turned
for embroideries and to Russia for
loose, baggy sleeves and blousing
bodices as we'll as embroideries.
Truly, we have an unusual mixture
Of fashions. Spanish styles have not
relinquished their hold. Many ideas
are still gathered from the pictur-
esque costumes of Spain.

ashton S Details

T is interesting to note the de-
tails which make this seasons
clothes different from those Of
last spring. Many Of these
little points of difference are worthy
Of thought, as they suggest ways In
which an old frock may be brought
up to date with very little expendi-
ture
In the main, there are few real
changes in fashions. The models Of
the autumn, while extremely diverse,
have more or less the same themes
running through them all. The
yokes seen in so many of the new
frocks, which are otherwise little
different from the chemise dresses.
are worth while considering as a
means Of bringing a last seasons
frock up to date. There is the
shoulder yoke, much like the en-
placement of 1880, which, if becom-
ing, is excellent for an afternoon or
semi-evening dress of lightweight
material. Many frocks of heavier
materials show the little back yoke
extending over the shoulders that is
almost identical with the yoke seen
in a mans shirt. This little yoke
is used even in velvet frocks.
An Interesting
Apron Tunic
A DISTINGUISHED model or
black chiffon velvet that has
Just arrived from Paris shows a
foundation dress of chemise style
with such yoke. The front of the
dress Is slightly gathered to the
yoke. An interesting apron tunic is
Of black chiffon supporting nine
picot-edged bands Of the velvet, each
band about two inches in width. The
bands are placed so closely together
that the chiffon is not visible. The
tunic, which is square, is attached
to the foundation at low waistline
in front and curves lower in the back,
so that the points of the overskirt
fall two inches below the hem at this
point. There is a short set-in sleeve.
| This model has one of the new scarf
collars that wraps around the neck
and ties in bow at the left side.
These high collars, which tie at the
side, are very easily attached to any
frock and are distinctly of this
season.
The panels Of this year are inter
esting in connection with remodeling
clothes, since they are so often made
Of contrasting material. Pleated
panels of lace, chiffon or net, the
points Of the pleats hanging in al
most ragged effect, are applied to
silken frocks. Apron tuncs are used
in the Same way. Velvet gowns
have panels, overskirts or tunics of
lace. Then there are loop panels.
Cut-out Flower Petals

7 HAVE in mind the fiat loops such
as Renee, Of Paris, featured
throughout her entire collection in
one-piece day and afternoon dresses,
dancing frocks and evening gowns
rather than the looped drapery in
troduced by Cheruit. The loops Of
these panels lie fiat, giving a
straight look to the figure. They
hang from the waistline and fall to
the edge of the skirt, where they
are sometimes caught under the hem.
Or they may even loop back to the
wastline. Often these loop panels,
if Of cloth, are bound with cire
satin. They are seen on one-piece
day dresses, more complicated eve
ming dresses, as we'll as dancing
frocks and evening gowns.
