Old West Church Reopened, with APP
propriate Services

Old West Church Reopened, with Ap'
propriate Services.
The reopening of the Old West
church of Calais marked great day
for the people. In spite of the heat,
people attended from Montpelier, Hard
wick, Worcester and all parts of Cal
ais. The whole day took the form of a
rededication of the community to the
principles and high ideals for which the
church had been built and conse-
Grated in 1928
A loyal group has restored the
church building so that now it is in
first class condition. A fund which has
been accumulating has been placed so
that it will be permanent for the mate
rial upkeep of this old spiritual land
mark 1t remains now for the people to
say that it will be kept open for the
spiritual development of the town.
The morning service was addressed
by E. II. Clowse of Richmond, who is
spending his summer in Calais; by
Mason s. Stone of Montpelier and Os.
car c. Gallagher of Brookline, Mass,
who owns cottage in Calais and
spends as many summers in 1t as his
work will permit.
Upon the general topic, 'World Serv
ice" Mr. Clowse emphasized the devel-
opment of the home in all its sacred
possibilities as Americas great gift
to the world. Mr.. Stone showed that
the old church, in its beauty of strSc-
ture and sacredness of associations
was not only legacy, but trust and
a rare privilege for the people to keep
alive in the community the spiritual
ideals for which the fathers had dedi
Gated it. Mr.. Gallagher followed by an
emphasis upon seeing clearly the moral
and spiritual ideals and then having
the courage to live these ideals in the
everyday life. Special music, appropri.
ate to the occasion, was given through
out the day.
After basket dinner, many add |
tional persons assembled for the after
noon service. A brief devotional and |
praise service preceded the sermon by |
Rev Mr.. st. John of Montpelier. He |
urged the necessity Of building the !
new community upon the lines of serv-
ice, not alone to the United States, but |
to the whole world, not according 10
The old way of the walled-in city. but
he community with no walls, open on
very side TO the outpouring Of the
principles of Jesus, the Christ Let the
Tod principle of righteousness be the

EVER POPULAR TUB DRESS
Fabrics of Washable Variety Are No Longer in Class With High
 Priced Luxures.

There seems to be no reason what ever why every woman should not be daintily gowned at comparatively small cost this summer. Fabrics of the washable variety, whether cotton or linen, are no longer in the luxury class, and certainly style designers have offered a splendid range of at tractive styles.
 A frock of two materials is one of the excellent examples of smart sim plicity offered this season. It may be white or plain color linen with ere tonne. This type of dress is cut on the simplest of lines, buttons sensible and comfortably in the center back, and is of the one-piece variety. The cretonne is used for collar and cuffs and to form a girdle effect at either side.
 White organdie and gingham in a half-inch check in blue and white, red and white or yellow and white, are frequently combined in dainty sum- mer frocks. This combination is also worked out in some very pleasing blouses for wear with white tub skirts. The major portion of the blouse is usually of the organdie with pipings, belt or girdle and collar, of gingham, instead of using the sheer matt ial as trimming for the heavier fabr

BRIEF FASHION NOTES

Drawnwork on light frOcks is a very popular form of decoration. Double stitching is used as trim ming on tailored serge suits. Plaited fiounces are used on sleeves as side panels and as tunics.
 An effective mode is the hanging of loose panels from a low waist line.
 Swagger coats have high-buttoned necks and narrow fitted shoulders.
 Among new fabrics for evening are self-tone brocades and beaded nets.
 Paillettes in square, and oblong shapes are in much demand for eve ming gowns.
 Taffeta for hats is used in a com Dination brim of the taffeta and crown of leghorn.
 Plaid and striped ginghams are be- ing used for warm weather separate skirts for both children and grownups.
 The handkerchief drapery is one of the new ideas evolved to bring about the uneven line at the skirt edge so much favored this season.
 To terminate with ostrich tips the long ribbon streamers which fall be- low the skirt of the dancing frock is the very latest. These tips may match In color with the dress or may be in vivid contrast.
 Many lace dresses have skirts in deep, overlapping tiOunces; other mod els show lace draperies and almost in- variably the lace falls here and there below the edge of the underskirt, mak- ing soft, shadoWy effect above the ankles.

THE TUNIC BLOUSE
Garment in "Casaquin" Style
 Beautiful and Useful.
Can Be Made Gorgeous or Simple.

One of the most important novel ties of the present season is the highly decorative tunic blouse which is fashioned in "casaquin" style but which forms in itself d very beautiful and useful garment. The casaquin outline, according to a Paris fashion writer, has become an established fla vOrite.
 This is easy to understand. A we'll cut casaquin blouse makes the figure look slender and eminently graceful. 1t gives the long waist line now so fashionable and cOrsages of this order can be made as gorgeous, or as sim pie, as individual taste suggests.
 Now that it is again the fashion to have the skirt of one color-and ma terial-and the cOrsage of quite an other, an opportunity is given for pie tureSque combinations of all kinds, and the ParisienneS have not been slow to make the most of an agreeable situa- tion.
 Individual women have done this, but far more important is the example set by some of our leading dress de- Signers. One of the latest models had draped skirt made of new black crepe which has a slightly rough sur face and a casaquin corsage in dull rose mOusseline de soie embroidered in soft shades of rose, copper and dark gray.
 The cOrSage, which was severely plain save for the embroideries, came down a few inches below the normal waist, and at the hem it was slightly draped. The sleeves were quite short, the neck was cut round, and at the left side, just over the hip, there was wa terfall of black ribbons.
 Another Doeuillet model of similar design had a draped skirt in black lace mounted over silver tulle and casaquin corsage of jade-green taf- fetas, the latter curiously embroidered here and therein silver thread, with tiny cut jet beads in the inter- stices.
 This gown had wonderful girdle- which fell over the hips-of cut jet and silver. Just at the waist there was an obviously unreal camellia made of pure colored organdie muslin.
 Here ana Inere sensational mOOelS are exhibited to catch the attention of those foreign buyers who insistently demand "something different" but the fact remains that all the best dressed WOmen-PariSiennes and Americans alike-are wearing dainty frocks which still display straight outline even though a good deal of supple material may ha crushed into the cOmnOSitiOn of a robe.

Bisques and bouillons are the cor rect soups for luncheons and should be served in tWo-handled cups (the newest form is the tWo-handled cup which is very shallow and broad known as a "cream soup cup'O. The use of bOuill0n cups at dinner or of soup plates at luncheon stamps the hostess as ill-infOrmed Roast beef or mutton may not be offered as the hearty course at luncheon; chops, croquettes, patties, birds or broiled chicken are correct A formal lunch con may be started with fruit course of berries, grapefruit or melon or with a cocktail of mixed fruits; or with clans, crab meat or oysters.

POPULIST THEORIES
 REVIVED BY BANKER

New York, June 1O.-The sales tax i11 Canada Is not substitute but to an addi- tional tax on business profits, writes w. c. Gates, Canadian correspondent to Commerce and Finance.
 Americans who imagine that the Canadian experiment throws flood of light on the sales and turnover taxes will probably be disappointed, says the cor respondent.
 "The one sure thing demonstrated by the 10 months experiment up to March 31 Is that the tax has not produced the revenue expected. Our minister of finance, like Moses, struck the rock, but there was no great outrush of water, nothing more than trickle equal to less than 10 per cent of the total revenue. Another fact demonstrated is that the tax can never be counted on as a major source of revenue.
 The sales tax consists of 1 per cent on sales by manufacturers and whole salers, or jobbers, and importations at their dutiable value.
 'Canada's experience may be taken as fairly good evidence that estimates of probable returns from either the sales or the turnover taxes have been much exag- gerated. Apparently they have been based too much on the figures, not of a normal period, but of one of marked in- hation.
 . While Americans may see in the re- suits of the Canadian experiment mater ia1 for guidance in shaping their own policy, they may well hesitate before jumping to the conclusion tat because this method of taxation is considered neces- sary in Canada, therefore it is desirable in the United States.
 For one thing, Canada needs revenue much more badly than does the Repub- lie"

USE FOR THE WORN BLOUSE
Discarded Garment Can Be Made Into An Attractive Cover for the
 Cushion.

A discarded embroidered kimono blouse will make lovely cushion cover. Use the front for the top of the cushion, of course. If too nar- row, piece out with strips of beaded embroidery. The back of the cush- ion should be covered with the back of the blouse, reinforced with enough from the sleeves, joined with narrow beaded embroidery. A blouse of 36-inch bust will make a cover IS inches square. White en- broidered blouses will make dainty summer cushions, the smaller sizes being used for baby cushions. The hlouses embroidered in bright wools will make handsome covers as we'll as those embroidered in silks. If the material is thin like crepe, first line the cushion to give it body.
