DIFFUSING LIGHT IN ASIA
Christian Missionaries Firmly Behind Independence Move, Though Not
 Directly Responsible for 1t.

No picture of the independence move is adequate that does not include the church as one of it's high lights, ob serves Nathaniel Peffer in Scribner's. Now, even the Japanese have with drawn the charge that the movement Is exclusively Christian and that it was instigated by American missionaries for American political purposes. But it is true that the Korean Christians are a unit in it's support, that the ma jority of its leaders are Christian, and that the originating impulse is largely Christian.
 And that is only natural: First, be- cause the Christians are the most infiu- ential class in Korea, and second, be- cause conversion to the church neces- sarily means contact with Western ideas and Western thought. And those necessarily means the development of a spirit that cannot and will not en- dure subjection to the iron military rule of an alien conqueror
 Tn that sense Christianity is responsi- ble for the unrest in Korea and in that sense the Christian church is the enemy the Japanese have to fight And that will be increasingly true as time goes on, for Christianity is making rapid strides in Korea, the more rapid for the part the Christians have played in the rebellion.

Simple Explanation of Wife's Action When She Suspected Burglar

After starting for his work the other morning Taylor happened to think of something he had forgotten and returned to the house to get it.
 While walking about the kitchen he heard a great racket upstairs. Consid- erably alarmed he called:
 What in the world is the matter, Mary? Has anything happened?'
 There was moments silence, then his wife replied:
 "Oh, is that you?'

"A of suits is due just now and may
be briefly written, since the story itself
was not a long one this season. There
has been great uniformity of styles and
considerable variety in details of fin
ishing, and the points that distin-
guished suits at the beginning of the
season proged to be very popular, so
that there has been no good reason for
running after strange gods. Now that
the season is over, and designers are
turning their attention to spring, we
are not likely to find any startling in
nOvations in winter styles.
The two suits pictured are found
among the liberal quota Of fur-trim-
med models that have made up a
part of all representative collections.

ROAD

FUNDS FOR PUBLIC HIGHWAYS
Sum of ss7, ooo, 900 Viii BE Divided
Among States in Proportion

1.-THE last apportiOnment Of federal
funds to the state In road eonsruc-
ton under the existing federal-aid act
became available July l." said Mr.
Mcdonald, chief Of the bureau Of pub
lie roads.
''This is the largest apportionment
yet certified under the Federal aid act,
amounting to S1O0OO0,0 900, three-Quar-
tiers OF which is derived from the ap-
preparation OF 1919 and S25.OO0,O0O
from the original appropriation OF
1916. A deduction OF $3,OO0,OOO, or 3
per cent Of the funds, will be made
to provide for the expense OF admin
istering the federal aid act by the
Department Of Agriculture. The bal
ance of S97, 100000 will be divided
among the states in proportion to their
population, area, and mileage OF post
roads.
Under the law the states are re
CURED to enter into formal agreements
with the secretary Of agriculture for
the construction upon which this mon
ey is to be used before July 1, 1922.
Any money which is not taken up be-
fore that time will be reappOrtioned
among all the states in the same man
ner in which the original appOrtion-
ments are made. All previous appOT-

time allotted, and it is not likely that
the states will fail to absorb this last

will mean that the states must sur

AoGROUP of hats for little girls. ii
L is not without intention that a
plain felt is placed at the top; for of
all millinery for children, the hand
some beaver or felt, with ribbon trim,
holds it's own as always above critt-

beavers and felts, plain as they are
come in an unbelievable variety of
shapes and endlessly ingenious ribbon
trims, and in all needed sizes and
colors. They are here and have been
for many years and are as certain OF
return each year as the seasons are.
Occasionally one comes across a model
that has a little additional enbellish-
ment besides the ribbon band or sash
and in those pictured there is a fat,
stitched band of felt about the brim-
edge.
But even these lovely beavers and
felts have rivals in pretty hats OF vel

fort and Prosperity.
ment may reach S25OOOO,OOO In other
words, it will be necessary to plan
for construction at the rate of at least
S1O0,0OO.OO0 and probably more per
year. Some appreciation of what that
means may be CLEANED from the fact
that in 1915 the expenditure for all
roads in the United States, construct
ed under state supervision, was only
100000.
''Since 1915, however, state highway
departments have been greatly expand
ed, and efficient machinery has been
developed which viii undoubtedly be
able to handle the greater volume OF
work.
1.-The states have had four years in
which to prepare for the expenditure
Of the large funds which now become
available. They expect to be able to
handle them. What is Of greater con-
Germ to them at this time is the con-
dition which may result IL federal ap-
propriatiOns are permitted to lapse.
The highway departments should know
at least a year in advance what funds
are to be available in order that plans
may be made for future construction.
Unless, therefore, further federal &C
ton is taken in the coming year, the
states will be left in doubt as to the
future policy Of the government, and
the amount Of money they must be
prepared to expend. Such a contingen-
cy would involve a serious setback to
the progress OF road construction, and
should be avoided by early congress
