BELGIUM TAKES NEW TERRITORY.

Three small bits of territory along the
frontier of Belgium and Germany, south
of Aix-la-Chapelle, which for more than a
century have been trouble makers on ac-
count of their peculiarly unsettled condi-
tion. have at last secured for themselves a
definite national status. One of these.
Moresnet, which was awarded uncoadi-
tionally TO Belgium, has decided to accent
without further cavilling the action of the
Paris Conference. The other two, Eupen
and Malmedy, which We're permitted to
choose between Belgium and Germany.
have decided to be Belgian
The people of Eupen and Malmedy
made their own choice of a state, but by a
different method from that employed in
North Schleswig and other plebiscte areas.
They were allowed TO enter upon registers
kept at the principal towns of the two
territories their opposition to ineorpora-
ton with Belgium and their wish to re-
main part of Germany. This region has
been Austrian, French and German, but it
has always had large population of the
two Belgian races. Flemish and Walloon.
Eupen has about 10000 inhabitants and
Malmedy about 81 900. The earlier sup
position was that the Germans were strong
ly in the majority, but the result of the
registration did not disclose this, for one of
the last published statements showed that
only " persons had entered protest
against annexation to Belgium.

Robbed Hair Doomed.

America has submitted long and pa
tientlv to the dictation of Paris IN matter
Of wornan's fashions. She has accepted the
abbreviated skirt, the ear tab, the snort
varnp shoe, but as there Is limit TO all
things the announcement that bobbed
hair must go may cause the worm to turn,
NAV bring terrible revolt against foreign
tyranny. 1t is an easy matter TO lengthen
or shorten the skirt, to change the make of
q hat or the style of a shoe, but the hair
that is different. 1t takes years for tresses
to grow to the old lengths and in the mean
while what is one to do with them? There
is nothing more hopeless than half-length
hair. as Paris well knows.
Now that bobbed hair is doomed, one
NAV ask whence the thing came. 1t IS
said that the old fashion of wasplike waists
originated with deformed queen. OF
Spain. Perhaps some French modiste,
forced to sacrifice her hair because of
typhoid fever, was clever enough TO force
the fashion upon her sisters even in foreign
clirnes. Some intimate, however, that
the style originated at the front, and that
the female workers there, taking leaf out
of the German book, sought to create on
their heads little devastated area" But
now the war is over, warlike methods are
no longer necessary, and these fair patriots
are justified In seeking to regain their lost
tresses.

Would Bring People to Church.

Rev. T.. d. Stone, Baltimore clergy
man Of the Methodist Protestant faith,
told congregation in our city, few
evenings ago, that the paucity Of interest
in church work was due TO the lack Of
effort and real of the preachers, and advo-
cnted going out and bringing in the laggard
and the absentces, even though the preach
er must 60 to the poolrooms and clubs
and street corners after them. DR.. Stone
accused the most of our prcsent-day
churchmen with being content to tits
and sing themselves away in bliss" He
also declared the people to be more in
tcrcsted in the movies" than in ser
mons.
That fewer and fewer people are go
ing to church these days than formerly
is self-cvident fact, but how to over
come this somewhat disquieting situation
seems to be problem yet unsolved. There
have been many efforts in that direction,
but almost none of them seem to have
been satisfactory. Even motion pictures
shown in the church attract fewer persons
than would the same films shown in a
theatre, while socials, lectures, or other
means taken to stimulate real interest IN
the pulpit and the sermons seem not to
have been successful in that direction.
One may wonder if even Henry Ward
Beecher or DR.. r. Dewitt Talmadge, or
Bishop Phillips Brooks could fill large
churches now as formerly they did, Sun
day after Sunday, or if George Whitfield
were to preach again in this city, as he did
more than a century ago, would the entire
population of the city flock to hear his
message thundered forth in words OF NV
ing fire." as we are told they were?
Obviously, the present is not an ex-
tensive church-going age, but for all that
we may be as really religious as we're our
ancestors a hundred years or more ago,
for we must concede that as people we
are growing in grace and understanding
Perhaps the abstention from church may
indicate we are but dropping the outward
form of worship, and that within We are
still faithful. Probably some men and
women of today hold worship to consist OF
right doing and right living, and feel they
are "at church" in fact so long as they are
following the teachings of the decalogue.
