"DINDICALS"
HOLD REUNION
Mrs. Cooch Receives Gift of
Appreciation

Mrs. j. Wilkins Cooch, originator
and leader of the "Dindigals," mis-
sionary band of boys and girls OF
the Presbyterian Church, held re-
union at her home last Friday even
ing. This society has been disbanded
for about four years, due to the fact
that Mrs. Cooch's health would not
permit her to spend the time neces-
sary to keep these busy workers 60
ing and there seemed to be no one
else willing to devote the time to
| them.
The word "Dindiga" means smooth
in India in which Mrs. Cooch spent
her childhood days. Near the village
there was large smooth stone and
thereby it received It's name. Mrs.
Cooch we'll knew that no other mis-
sionary band would ever have this
title and she choose 1t not only be-
cause it was her home town but be-
cause it was with Smooth stone"
that David slew the Giant. She there
fore likened each member to a smooth
stone and expected them to help kill
the Giants of today.
All the members of this band were
invited to attend the reunion and
those present were: .
Misses Helen and katherine Bar
nard, Anna and Agnes Frazer, Jane
Miller, Sara Steele, and Hattie E. G.
Lewis; Wilkins Cooch, Mr.. and Mrs.
Franklin Springer, Mr.. and Mrs.
Richard Cooch, Mrs. Pierce K. Cromp-
ton and Francis Lindell.
A meeting was held as in former
days, opened by singing the Doxology
Mrs. Cooch read the 18th chapter of
1st Samuel, the story of David and
the Giant, followed by prayer by
Francis Lindell. Some time ago Mrs.
Cooch had requested a friend of hers
now living in India, to take a photo
graph of the "Dindigal" stone and
from this she had made reprint for
each member of the band and present
ed them with it at this time. After
singing "America" the meeting closed
with the Christian benediction.
A social hour followed during
which time many relics of India and
other points of interest were viewed
tand interesting stories told about
each. While refreshments were being
served they talked about the success
they had made while active.
The members present gave Mrs.

availed themselves of the water rate to ship to Pacific points and we may infer from MT. Layelle's reply that the midwest manufacturers have used the low rate via the Mississippi
 Of course piano shipments constitute but small part of railroad traffic But there hundreds of commodities which for one reason another have been and always will be shipped by rail when that is possible There are commodities which deteriorate like pianos on sea routes. There are others which require the earliest possible delivery.
 There are many it is true, that may we'll be by sea by land when time is not essential factor. But most of such commodities originate in different parts of the country. Take for instance steel whose manufacturers also supporting the application, The midwest mills and the southern mills have the Mississippi waterway that they are already equal terms with the eastern mills The lumber industry is also pretty well distributed over the country. The most that these industries would profit lower through rates would be in the matter of time.
 Against this advantage to comparatively few industries is the ruinous discrimination to which the territory of Missouri and the ntermoun- loss of railroads in meeting water competition would be shifted upon them.
 That there would be such a loss is indicated in the examination Saturday of MT. Wettling whose figures as to operating cost found cross-examnation to vary by almost two billions of dollars.
 While water competition is not quite much of myth 1t used to be when 1t was invoked against the intermediate region in the "back haul" days it is still largely imaginary

Every one who has spent vacation in Switzer- land has noticed the demure little girls who sit outside the shops the Lucerne quays everastingly embrod ering at frame.
 They making lace.
 Most of them come from the villages around Saint Gall.
 They represent one of those peculiar industries that pertain to particular town province, just as place will be noted for its woodcarving, another for pipe-making and the like.
 Their system of lacemaking is called "Kloeppel," the best specimens of which bear very favorable co parson with the Irish Valencennes and Brussels pro- ducts.
 The most popular is the Brussels lace of Appen- ze It is exported large scale and almost every woman who fancies nice things enriches her wardrobe while in Switzerland with Appenzel founce, scarf or collar.
 The industry, according to the London Daily Mail was introduced into Switzerland by Hugenot refu- gee from France, who settled in the neghborhood of Saint-Gall about 200 years ago. This is quaint cath edral city near the lake of Constance.
 At first it home industry. In the eighteenth century it became very important and presently its reputation spread beyond Switzerland.
 Like Brussels lace, it is always embroidered on fine gauge and the Brussels designs were imported into Switzerland There is little to distinguish the real Brussels from that of Appenze for the designs and forms the same.
 The industry has always been confined to this canton.
 Swiss Kloeppel lace is made in French Switzer- land and in the Lauterbrunnen valley Elaborate meas ures for the of the industry have been taken and special committees have ben ford to super wise the production
 Kloeppel lace is such that traveller obtain any special design he fancies These and girls always ready to work from rough sketch and the results achieved are as remarkable for thelr truth and accuracy as the efforts of the Swiss carv CTS executing wooden models of sporting dogs sent to them by the Britishers back in the 'nineties
 Even in these times of financial upset, with money exchange out of joint it is possible to buy specimens of this magnificent lace at reasonable price In the little shops and towns of Switzerland.
 The women workers come from their home towns in the summer to Lucerne and other resort places do good stroke of advertising by their quaint appearance execute special commissions and make not little money.
 The Swiss are very industrious and thrifty peo- ple and acemaking ranks with wood carving of the oldest of the fine arts there practsed conmercia

WHAT MODERN CHILDREN READ

The doors by which a child may escape from this hundrum world into the enchanted land are bewildering for multitude. The fairies have had the assistance recently of some first rate genius, notably the active imag- ination of Rudyard Kipling, of Lewis Carroll, of Frank Baum, of Joel Chandler Harris and of Thornton w Burgess. These authors have dressed all creation up in Halloween garb for the children, and the chill dren have followed these comical pipers with glee. Modern childhood has passed up the Shorter Catechism for the Little Peppers and their do- ings and sleep with easy consciences-
 The public library says that even the books with which juvenile readers of 40 years ago amused themselves, such as Robinson Crusoe, are passed by by ehe up-to-date child for the more sprightly Wizard of Oz. If the mental pabulum of youth in old English and early Colonial days was somber, surely they feed today upon matter that is cheerful up. to the very verge of literary jazz. We have re- formed that, at least. Hand in hand with Uncle Remus. or straight through looking glass. or even on the wings of a Kansas tornado, the  boys and girls of today are con ducted into realms where there are no dishes to do or wood to carry and where the circus comes every day.

They are the first and most impor- tant guides of the child mind- Re- ferring again to the immortal legend s.F 117f Q fln Pirlar of Hamelin, doesn't remedy for youthful waywardness lie in being your own piper? Parents should beguile the children into all that is good, and should be thankful that in these days there are so many ex- cellent books to help them.
 The outstanding facts are that chil- dren are incurably romantic: they read everything eagerly; and they believe and remember the best. No teacher could ask for more. Mother Nature has delivered the little urch-

 To lead the child in his reading and thinking is not to be a joy-killer. The goody- goody Sunday school type of biok has fortunately gone. but the best books remain, and are the best loved. The statement that children believe and remember the best is not ignorant and wilful opti- mism, but the plainest observable fact. If they don't believe and re- member the catechism, its simply because the catechism is for child hood a monstrous thing, unreal and unimportant If hoys prefer to read about Roy Gardner rather than about the bishop it's because there is time for every purpose under heaven and boyhood is the time for dreaming of adventure and deeds of high daring.
