FASHION RAIDS BARNYARD

PARIS, Dec. liza. P)-Fashio:',
in her ever insstent search for nov
city, aga'n has invaded the barnyard.
Rooster feathers have come back.
They are the latest thing on smart
Paris hats, and even on even ng
gowns. All colors are used, and when
the rooster can't supply the shade the
dyer does. However, natural white
and black are the most popular col
ors.
Rooster feathers probably are about
as cheap a material as can be found
but their use on chic hats has not
lowered the price of bonnets. Gne lit
tie hat shop is displaying these SIM
pie but smart things at $50 francs
while other stores ask 500 and 600
600 francs.

NEW ORGAN IN
EPISCOPAL CHURCH
Estey Instrument Jsed Yesterday for
First Time-T0ne of Exquisite
SweetneSs-597 Pipes

The new Estey organ. which was in
stalled in ST. Miehaefs Episcopal
church last week was used in the ser
vice of the church for the first time at
the celebration of the holy communion
at 1870 O'Clock yesterday morning. The
old organ is to be rebuilt and installed
in the Swedish Lutheran church.
At the service yesterday the rector
read letter of appreciation from the
pastor and officials of the Swedish Luth-
eran church and sewing society of that
church for0the opportunity given them to
acquire the old organ. The letter also
contained an invitation to be present at
their church when the rebuilt organ is
dedicated
1t is expected that the new organ viii
be formally dedicated and conSecrated to
the use of the church at the time of the
next visitation of the bishop.
Members Of the congregation a. well
aS the organ committees. We're highly
pleased with the new instrument which
has an exceedingly sweet tone and while
all of its steps are fine three or four in
particular are very beautiful.
1t is a two manual instrument compriS-
ing Il great organ Of four stops. swell
organ of five stops and pedal organ of
two stops. making II stops and n total of
J9T pipes lit includes 10 c0uplcrS. three
pedal movements and TWO unison separa-
tion piStonS and the usual mechanical ac-
.ce>SorieS.
The arrangement Is exceedingly lex
ible and completely adapted for use in so
small a church.
The ease * finished in quartcred oak
to match the reredoS Of the church and is
of simple gothic design The pipes are
dun gold finish and are arranged in four
flats and one tower of large pipes spring
ing from a corbel directly over the music
rack
The movement to accomplish this under
taking was started in July. 1920. 1t was
thought fitting that the instrument should
be Il memorial to the many friends and
worShippcrs of St Michapl's who have
gone to their rest With that purpose in
mind some who are not now residents of
Brattleboro have been invited to share in
the pleasure of accomplishing that object
Also in the years to come this instrument
will serve aS. Il worthy memorial of the
donors whose names will be preserved in
the history of the church. There is still
an opportunity for others to share in es
tabliShing the memorial as at least an
other thousand dollars viii bc required
for the completion of the organ fund
The old organ, which has done goot
service in st. AlichaeIS since 1870. ant
which is tracker action with beautiful
sweet tone. has been bought BY the peo
pie of the Swedish Lutheran church. II
viii be thoroughly renovated by the ex
pert workmen of that congregation ant
viii undoubtedly give good service fol
