Fashions In Public Taste

Aymar Embury, II, writing In NrtS and Decoration, says:
 There is probably no other word more frequently used in discussions, either written or oral, about art than "taste," and there is probably no word which is so difficult to define
 The word is very often employed when good taste is meant, as, for ex- ample, in the common colloquial cN- pression describing a poorly dressed woman, she has no taste and far too frequently taste is confused with fasn- ion, as when one describes a house fur nished in perfect taste,'' when the lspeaker really means that the house is furnished in the current fashion. It is very difficult to set up stand lards for things aesthetic, including things architectural, and to say that that which departs from these stand ards lacks taste, and that which con forms to them is tasteful, is far from Correct, for there has never been a period in art in general or in architec- ture in particular when good and lad were not commingled.
 | It is customary to think of all Vic (torian work as having been in execra-
 ble taste, and it is probably true that during this time the proportion of ugly things was far greater than any othe'
 historic period, but to condemn al l things Victorian shows lack of dis
 crimination, for many times articles oi
 the Victorian period showed that inde
 finable quality, taste as clearly as dc
 those of the Renaissance of today. 1 have said that the Victorian periot
 was probably bad on the whole, instead
 of damning it completely, for we art ,still too near the period to be sure iha our current judgment is correct ant
 not liable to reversal by the genera lticns to succeed us.
 It so happens that the Victorian period is the only one which practical, leverybody is united in condemnins liust as practically everybody today re lizards the American colonial as beini universally good quality, and yet doub
 whether the rublic taste of the tw periods differed very largely in degree
 IL was simply that the the fashion
 of the two periods were entirely lnlik and the great mass of the public fol

ESPECIAL TRAIN FOR
 THE PASSING SHOW"
Gigantic Musical Extravaganza Reaches City-HouSing the Company a Problem

Birminghams housing situation took on a more realistic touch last night when 72 sparkling bits of femininity, the outstanding reason for the 'Pass- ing Show" hustled upstairs, down stairs, all around the town, searching for places to lay down their curly heads.
 Manager A. Brown Parks of the Jet- ferson theatre, where the Passing Show is to hold revel for two days, starting tonight at 8 o'clock sharp, de- clared at an early hour this morning that every "girlie" had been given some sort of a location, but it had been a herculean task.
 There are 126 members of the com : pany. They rolled in yesterday on . special train from Atlanta. Six cars of special scenery and other embellish- : ments aided in the makeup of the train. The company carries it's own switch board. Three of the troupe's electri- clans who travel in advance of the com- pany, have been here several days en- gagged in wiring the theatre especially for the production. The company uses
 more than 5000 of it's own incandes- cent bulbs. There are 60 lamps of 1000 watts. A sidelight which gives as good an I idea as any of the size of the Passing 1 Show is the fact that Manager Parks | had to spend S200 for new rope for this
 attraction. A stage crew of 20 men is carried, and there are 10 musicians to augment the local orchestra.
 | To place the scenery into position | for the first act requires 12 to 15 hours
 and for that reason it is necessary for | the production to reach a city where il l is to be shown day in advance of the opening date. One of the tasks for tn; | company carpenters shortly after theil arrival was to build runway in from l of the stage.
 That the Passing Show is from tht l New York Winter Garden is wei
 known. It is a gigantic musical ex- travaganza in two acts and , scenes
 and it requires three hours to give tht performance. The cast is composed O. lheadliners, and over 1000 costumes ar, worn and shifted constantly.

THE INCARNATION"
 SERMON BY DIR. EDMONDS

The subject of pr. Henry M. Edmonds sermon to the Independent Presbyterian congregation Sunday morning at Temple Emanu-El was "The Incarnation" The text was And the word became flesh and dwelt among us." pr. Edmonds said in part:
 John was in touch with the life Of Asia-Minor. The idea prevalent there concerning God was that He could not Come immediately in touch with life, but sent certain representatives of His to make himself known to men. People be- gan to call this manifestation of God
 Logos, the Word John came, sayIng,
 God has not sent word but a per sonal representative in whom His mes sage is embodied. he says to you, By reason of this man you shall learn what you ought to know and do. You've heard vaguely, you've called it the Word; now send the man who is the Word of God
 Through all the years God had been sending messages to the world how to live But finally He said, They are not getting this; I'll have to send one who shall walk among them that they shah be apprised of what l. mean by saying that the spirit should dwell among them And Lad it not been for this in- carnaton, we would never have known what living and communing and love were.
 God was formerly considered tram scendent. He wanted to show the world that He did not exist apart from men but in them. And today we have just relinauished the one conception and arc not quite getting the other. God is not throned afar, but in each individual life. He is not transcendent but imminent. God sent Jesus as an illustration how to commune with Him. They called Jesus the Son of God, not because of His birth, but because His very nature and will seemed to coincide with God. God, sent Jesus to live with peasants, D converse with sinners. that the world might know that God is with us, all or us. all the time Jesus came saying, | am the word of God with reference tu living, with reference to child life. ana with reference to love
 And the need of the church today IS that the Word of God shall become tlesh and dwell among us The incarnatloh is world process continuing with us until the end of time With us it is easy to talk. but difficult to put that talk l into life That's where we all 1aii-n' ltranslating language into life, in max | ing the world to become flesh.

Selling Hogs By Mail

"One of the propositions I have adver-
 tised most,' says John Y. Beatty, presi-
 dent of the Porkmaker Herd of Berk-
 shres, explains in five lines of small
 type that I have a certain article to
 sell on the payment plan. In other words,
 the payment plan is the definite part of
 the proposition. Most letters that l re-
 ceive in response to this advertisement
 ask for complete information about my
 payment plan"
 In his article in System on meeting unseen customers, MT. Beatty explains that, If they ask more, l simply send a form letter which is designed to draw number of facts from the pros pect that I wish to know in order to
 make my meeting more profitable to both the customer and myself
 '.In one paragraph I have sentence that reads like this: If you cannot figure out a way to get what you want at once, please write me frankly and tell me ex- actly what your situation is This is the sentence that brings me so many frank letters, letters that tell me the whole family history in some cases, and sometimes this family history is very valuable in planning sales campaign for this particular individual My unit of sale is large enough so l can afford i to give special attention to each custo-
 mer if I get response to this form | letter."

MANY STUDENTS

Material Growth In Religious, Educational and Physical De- partmentS of Institution
 Shown In Report

The year of 1920 has been declared one of the best in the history of the local Young Mems Christian association and the programme as worked out by the board of directors in the educational, boys, phy- sical and religious departments has resulted in a material growth, according to the gene ral report which has been made.
 There are 722 students in the evening school of the Young Mems Christian as- Of this number 523 are ex-service men, who are being given courses which they have elected free of charge.

 BOYS GROUPS
 r. l.. Harrup, boys work secretary, has reported a successful term in his department, saying that many who are terested in the growth and develop ment of the boy life of the city have congratulated the association for it's helpfulness in this line of activity. The central association in this department has a membership of over 800 boys grouped according to age and training. Through community work the association is serving between 1000 and 5000 boys by training them physically and promot- Ing Bible study, hikes, Hi-Y clubs, an os- sociation for employed boys, and other group organizations for the best interest of boy life.
