Confederate Battle Abbey.

Confederate societies have been ad.
vised that the work of decorating the
Confederate Memorial Institute, or Bat
tie Abbey, in Richmond, Va, with
mural military paintings is almost COM
pleted, and that the finishing touches
are being applied by Charles HON.
bauer, French artist, whose work. De-
gun some years ago, was interrupted
when he returned to fight when 'ns
World War broke out. Thomas r.
Ryan, of New York, contributed 80
600 toward the fund for having trs
work done.
The Battle Abbey idea was conceived
by the late Charles Broadway ROu'''
Of Winchester and New York, at an
nual reunion of the United ConieaeI'
ate Veterans several years before III
death, and he provided for the pay

SUPPORT BRIGHT FOR SENATE

Lest there be any doubt in the minds
of the people of Cape May County re-
garding The Ledger's attitude in the
coming fight for the State Senatorship,
we desire to emphasize the fact at
this time that this is a Republican
newspaper and that we believe it to
be the best interest of the party in this
county to support the nominee chosen
at the primary.
We reserve the right, and always
shall, of supporting the candidate of
our choice at the primary and we
very genuinely regret that Mr.. Bos-
well was unsuccessful in his fight for
the nomination. The fact that Mr..
Bright was successful imposes a Sc
rious obligation on himself and his
friends and supporters in Ocean City
to see to it that he lives up to his
promises made before his nomination,
if reelected to the State Senate.
However, for Republicans of Cape
May County to support the Democratic
nominee in this fight is short-sighted
III Jnc cuIc. - SIIudLlOu VI tuls
kind always tends to strengthen the
position of our friends of the opposite
political faith and, of course, weakens
the Republican position in exactly the
same ratio. AS far as we are con
cerned we do not intend to be a party
to it. We, therefore, urge the Re-
publicans of Cape May County to sup
port Senator Bright in the coming
contest and do everything in their
power to insure a victory over his
Democratic opponent. - Ocean City

fur, has come in for much attention
on the part Of famous designers, and
they have used 1t In very handsome
coats and In suits also. Natural or
pelt fur furnishes the collar or col
lar and cuffs on many Of these rich
wraps. The majority Of coats are
those made of fashionable cOatings like
those shown in the picture above, and
designers use both natural and fabric
furs In accessories and finishing as
may be gathered from the illustra-
ton. In the coat of brown bolivia
cloth at the left a fur fabric that
looks just like lambskin furnishes the
long shawl collar extended in a fac
ing to the hem, and the wide straight
cuffs.
The dressy coat at the right in dark
blue normandie cloth is cut in cores,
and each gore ornamented with a de-
sign cut from beige silk and en-
~broidered. The scarf-collar and deep
cuffs are of natural squirrel.

A Common-Sense Type

Dear Cynthia-H Have been an inter-
ested reader Of your column for some
time and would like to have you print
my ideas about few things for the
possible benefit of some Of our readers
Is II a social uplift when young man
meets an intellectual girl who converses
on spr!ghUy subjects that are interesting
70 him and makes her acQua intanCe-
that Is elevating? But If Il Is not a
benefit. why not try something else in
the social line?
Another subject ! want TO talk about
is this: common service. To me there
are three kinds Of silly people in the
social world first. the fellow who con-
siders himself as being witty, contin-
ually tries 10 poke FUN at the girls and
wastes time in idle flattery, which
makes the commOn-senSe girl feel bored.
who carries himself erect, is a picture
ing companion.
Another Is the girl who appears 10 like
you until she meets some one else then
without any consideration she would
like to 60 with him.
Another Is the egOtistiCal, where van
ity becomes so deep.rOOted that when
the right on" comes along they fail to
understand, and love without under
standing is not successful
Now | DO not claim to be a philoso-
pher, and what ! have said may not be
true as both girls and fellows differ
widely: but when | attend a dance at
a West Philadelphia studio from ex-
Derience I can tell just exactly the girl
want to dance with and find my i'm
preston IS generally right. RAY T.

A Mans Idea on Kissing

Dear Cynthta-With your permission
would like TO write TO Sunshine"
My. Oh my. Sunshine" what are the
horrid boys doing that makes YOU speak
SO rudely about US? 1t sure is too bad
the boys want a parting remembrance
or token from such pretty girl.
But | cant possibly see why the mas
culine gender looks upon kissing 50
lightly. 7 think II Is the most sacred
gift any one may be privileged to re-
ccive. To one in love it is the only
expression the heart is able to give.
1t IL the very essence of life itself A
token remembered to the end of all time
To be sure It is not to be considered
lightly II ! were a girl 1t would be
with considerable reluctance that I
would yield TO giving something 80 alb
solutely priceless.
Now, Sunshine, don't judge all boys
alike. There are some who understand
your innermost feeling. and would not
Yield one inch from the stand | had
taken Give them all TO understand once
and for all time the stand you have
taken and that YOU expect them all to
be gentlemen enough to respect your
feelings.
OF course you must not suspect every
boy. Let them stand their ground. Give
them their just dues, but above all be
firm.
This IS the advice of a young man
who has seen considerable and knows
whereof he speaks. SMITH.

"A ONE-MAN WOMAN"
by HAZEL DEYO BYTCHELOR
Copyright, 1871, by Public Ledoer Co.

The next morning after fairly good
nigh sleep. Harriet was down Mt
breakfast at 80. Miss Watson
apd several Of the other boarders
we're already in their places, and they
Ihl nodded pleasantly enough. Harriet's :
spirits began to rise. After all, she was
approaching her goal at last, and If she
did succeed in discovering the thief and
proving to the world that Barry was
innocent. some day She might look back
upon all this as part of u very bad
dream.
She ate her breakfast with the hearty
| appetite of youth, and little after :
was walking briskly down Fifty seventh
! street, Miss Watson AT her side.
Seen in the bright light of day Miss
! Watson was not as young as Harriet
had thought. There were fine lines about
| her eyes and her mouth looked bitter
aS though her experiences had not been
of the best. But her eyes behind the
! tortoise shell glasses were bright. and
her thin face was interesting.
On the way downtown she talked to
! Harriet about the firm of Harmon &
Graves, little suspccting that Harriet
had heard nothing else from Barry for
the last year.
Grace RAYMOND tells me that this
Barry Neil is very likablc young
chap" she told Harriet 'Shc doesn',
believe he could have taken the money
and that's why pitched into old Mrs
SloCum last night"
but you believe that the wife ma,

asked Harriet, her heart beating un.
comfortably fast and conscious that sh,
was trcading on dangerous territory.

You see. ! know what it is to scrimy
along on barely nothing, and the bo!
may have been tempted beyond hi'
power to resist.

tion with her heart in her mouth.
mo. that's just it, no ono at tn,
office has ever seen her. that's VIII,
they're finding it hard to trace her. "
They were in the subway and it wa,

reading the morning paper. Harre

Shall She Accent Clothes?

Dear Cynthia--G am a steady reader
or your interesting column and am
coming TO you for advice
| have been going with a fellow since
January. He is a good sport. but |
cannot take a liking TO him. although
my people think the world Of him.
Now this fellow was married before,
but his wife is dead He wants to
take me, to New York, but as I want
a new dress and as I have been out
of work a long timc-also my father
and brothers--ths fellow wants to buy
IT, DO you think It right for him to
buy me clothes, as he asked my mother
and father who said all right"
FROCKS
No girl should accept a present Of
clothes from any man other than her
husband father or brother Perhaps
your father has arranged with the man
TO pay him back what he advances for
frock for YOU, but 1t would be better
not to accept it. DO your parents ap-
prove OF your going to another city
with man" Il is not a wise thing to
do; but, Of course. your parents know
what they want YOU TO do and Cynthia
does not know all the circumstances.
