MONTHLY DINNER SESSION MEMBERS
PRESBYTERIAN MEMS CLUB MOST
ENJOYABLE; JUDGE OWEN DELIVERS
INSPIRING ADDRESS ON ''THE BIBLE

Using as his subject the Bible from 4
literary standpoint and not as an in
spired writing Judge Thomas H. owen
of Oklahoma City, former Chief Justice
OF the Supreme Court, addressed sc
members of the Presbyterian Mems
club at the regular monthly dinner last
night in the church dining room.
Il do not wish you to think Of this
as a sermon" Judge owen stated, ''ncr
an attempt to expound doctrines, nor
do | claim to be a bible student but We
will discuss the Bible as a book por'
traying as it does. the lives of wonder
ful men and extraordinary women.
The Bible hasn't held sway for
1000 years without a reason. The book
or set of books is charged with poetry
and songs and in ii YOU tind vivid por-
trayals OF love, hate, romance, treach-
cry, loyalty. anarchy, everything that
could interest the reader.
And now why should the busy man
fool away his time reading the Bible
unless from the religious standpoint?
For the reason that by the study Of
characters in literature, we learn more
Of our fellow men. And from the study
OF human characters, real men and wo-
men, we learn much that helps us. We
fight the same battles they fought. We
have the same temptations TO overcome
that they did. Their weaknesses and
their strength, their struggles are simi'
lar to ours, and by the study of these
accounts we are strengthened.
THE Bible has held the fabric Of
civilization together from the very be-
ginning of civilization. 1t has been the
handbook of life. 1t has set the moral
standard Read it as book Of literature
you will find il of inestimable help.
THE short stories Of the Bible, "
Judge owen stated, ARE unexcelled.
Would you care for stories Of war? OF
adventure, he asked-"then take the
story Of Davd--none of the short story
magazines of today can give so much
of tie telling of human occurrences
Prefacing his address on the Bible
Judge owen called attention to the
fact that men, throughout the nation,
are taking more interest in their fel-
lowmen from the earnest desire to be
of help to them. This is the best sign

After she left I sat down and

where was I to get $500? $3.50 for
Mildred, $50 for Clara. 1t was

to make it up to us in some way.

make amends for causing us to lose
our money.

Here is snapshot of Doug
Fairbanks taken during the film
ing of his newest picture, 1.-THE
Three Musketeers." Doug had to
have mustache for the part of
D'Artagnan and instead of depend
ing on a false one and non-skid
glue he wore his own. It is really
quite becoming to him and it
seems shame that he must shave
it off right away for his next pic
ture. He will make THE Virgin
ian" next and so his carefully cul-
tivated and most becoming hirsute
adornment must be sacrificed for
art just as 1t was grown for the
same purpose.
At present Fairbanks is in San
francisco with Mary Pickford
Fairbanks and her company. The
exteriors for Little Lord Fauntle-
roy are being taken there.
Fairbanks told us that he plans
to go to New York for the open
ing the latter part OF August at
the Lyric theater of "The Three
Musketeers," and it may be that

A TOUCH OF COLOR.

The woman who is very pale
need not use rouge to lend a touch
of color to her appearance. There
are ever so many clever little ways
of giving an effective color with
out actually spreading a layer OF
it over the cheeks.
For instance there is the color
of the costume. The pale or sal
low girl should never wear white,
not even a white waist. White has
a deadening effect. 1t can be the
most beautiful and it can be the
most harmful color. If you are
too dark in complexion white will
make skin darker if you are sal
lowness, IL you are pale it will
make the pallor ghastly IL you
have a bad skin 1t will emphasize
every blemish.
II you are sallow choose cream
color or flesh pink, never bright
pink. If you are g. brunette, or II
you are very sunburned so that the
skin is darker than you wish never

ors.
Then there is one important
matter. Introduce one single note
of bright color in the costume. A
