In the dressier" blouses, I saw there
both in the imported and domestic
ones, stunning effects in georgette
crepe and heavy crepe de chimes, elab-
orately beaded. The beaded bIouses
are lovely ana from a style viewpoint,
are better than ever before.
One of the stunning imported over
blouses shown at Warren NJ. Crosby's
is of heavy silk crepe in the Gamma
shade, and is effectively trimmed with
cut steel and opalescent beads.
Another import is of dark-blue silk
crepe, beaded in dark blue with irri-
descent lights.
The black crepe de chine model, also
a French creation, is beaded both in
front and back in dark shade of rose
and lustrous black. The attractive new
lighter shades; grey, beige, apricot,
and peach.
Most of the hem lines of the new
overblouses are finished unevenly.

SHOWERED WITH COAL

There have been showers of vari-
Gus sorts in Paris recently, but to
be showered with coal does not fall
to the lot of everyone. Such was the
experience which befell Thomas Cra-
ven, guard at the pump house of the
Louisville e Nashville, and j. G.
Feeback, night engineer, at the same
place. While a northbound freight
train was crossing the station Mon
day night, someone threw a large
lump of coal from a loaded coal car,
the heavy missile chrashing through
window just above where the men
were sitting, showering them with
particles of coal and splintered
glass. By good luck both men es-
capped serious injury.
1t could not be ascertained who
threw the missile, as the train was
getting under good Roadway at the
time, and the night being dark all
trace of the bomb-thrower was lost
in the distance. Louisville & Nash
vile officials were notified, and are
conducting an investigation, with q
view to locating the cause of the
trouble.

The Geographic appeal was in

DIR. GILLESPIE SPEAKS ON PRES.
BYTERIAN CAMPAIGN

"Presbyterians must not only take
heroic measures to save the church
Kentucky. For two or three years. "
as WE'LL" said DR.. r. T. Gillispie,
State Chairman of the Joint Com
mission of the Presbyterian Church,
North and South, when interviewed
relative to the Statewide movement
now on for Christian Education in
the interest of the institutions in
Kentucky. For two or three years, "
DR.. Gillispie continued, "the leaders
of the church and our schools, both
laymen and clergy, have had weigh
ing upon their hearts the urgency
of presenting facts and the true
state of affairs to their constitu-
ency."
DR.. Gillispie is a man of forceful
character, a born leader, radiating
confidence, calmness and deliber-
ateness. AS he talked his eyes BEAM
ed with a vision of a practical fu-
ture that as he expressed it, sis the
hope not only of the leaders of the
church, but every Presbyterian in
Kentucky"
Referring to Roger Babson, to
whom the business interests and
captains of industry look for their
guidance in statistics, hecontinued, "
"Babson says the need of the hour
is not more factories, or material, or
railroads, or more steamships or
more armies or more navies, but
rather more education based on the
plain teachings of Jesus. The pros
perity of our country depends upon
the motives and purposes of the peo-
pie. These motives and purposes
are directed in the right course
only through religion. Legislation,
bounties or force are of no avail in
determining mans attitude towards
life. Harmony at home and peace
with the world will only be deter
mined in the same way"
The warmth and enthusiasm
backed with determination could be
seen in the square jaw and grey eye
of this leader of Presbyterian
thought in this State which was
akin to the masterful craftsmanship
of the late James j. Hill to whom
he referred when he said, 1.-The
small Christian college is the hope
of America, character is essential to
craftsmanship and these colleges
are vital factors in the development
of sterling character"
''No less an authority than Presi-
dent Harding" said DR.. Gillispie,
els responsible for these words:
Along with this, there is the obliga-
tion to maintain and encourage the
smaller colleges. 1t is the small col
lege that democratizes the higher
