APPEAL TO BOYS TO
 HELP SAVE SISTERS
Mothers Planning Crusade For More Modest Dresses and Actions
 of Girls.

New York. May S.--Mothcrs are planning crusade for the moral and sartaial regeneration Of jazzing daughters by making an appeal to boys according to Mrs, Eugene J. Grant, president of the New England women. who says that an appeal has been sent 10 members Of the society to use this avenue of approach to the conscience and modesty of the young girl,
 We do not want to reform her" said Mrs. Grant today, merely to urge her to moderate her dress. her danc- ing and her manners. As I told the members of our club, parents must start wave of moderation. It would be useless to try reforming girls, they always resent that and I myself, do not like reforms.
 Girls these days don't seem to have any clothes on from the waist up and skirts are so short there is little be- low the knees. But we don't object so much to the short skirts as to the almost invisible waists, because we are used to the abbreviated bathing suit.
 We New England women think that much can be accomplished if we can enlist the boys on our side and get them to discourage the fapper in her present ways"

SEES SEVEN DRUNKS,
 FEARS BOOZE SALES
Clergyman Calls Attention to
 Possible Increase

Because he saw seven drunken men between Friday night and Sunday morning, Rev. John l.. Davis is of the opinion that drunkenness is on the increase in New Britain and he tool, occasion to mention the fact. at the meeting of the Everyman's Bible class yesterday morning. That shows me that booze is being sold in this city in increasing amounts" he said, during his few minutes which he de devotes to informal talk each week.
 The sermon was taken from James, and tended to show the difference be- tween the wealthy people of old Tes- lament times and the rich people of today. He cited examples in the life of Paul, James, Lot, Judas, Sapphira and Ananias, which tended to prove that opposition to Christianity in olden times was due to mercenary motives.
 Has the Map Already.
 The second coming of Christ was discussed at length. The minister told about one man who has gone so far as fo make a map showing just how Christ will make His second ap- peg Plance on earth. Why it's the ID Jst idiotic nonsense l ever heard of,' he said, referring to the map.
 He said the Baptist church in the South is on the verge of split over the second coming of Christ and there are arguments pro and con all over the world ''The truth of the matter is, nobody knows thing about it and thatt all there is to it. he said
 The Novelty Theory.
 This earth might become the heaven of eternity. according to the minister. With all the evil, wicked ness, pain and misery, trouble, and war and hate and greed taken out of this earth he feels the earth would be an ideal heaven.
 The minister took fling at spirit ualists Lv intimating that the Book of RevelatioAs is being misinterpreted. He said many people should not read this book because they don't 'un- derstand it. He said there are men in the world just as bright and in telligent as Sir Oliver Lodge and A. Conan Doyle. who do not believe in their theories. It is the novelty of the theory that attracts attention. If l were to preach here to people about things they don't under stand, I'd pack this place to the gal leries, but when l talk about the tariff, the poor, about lying and steal ing and drinking and being exclusive, or talk of starting society for anti, obscene language it's pretty hard to stir up enthusiasm.
 There were 545 men present. the smallest attendance since Christmas. The small crowd is accredited to the fact that an outside speaker had been expected and many of the men did not know that Rev. Mir. Davis would talk, as usual. The class will have three more meetings before closing for the summer Two weeks from yes terday Rev. Mir. Davis will speak again. The last session, May 2S, will be addressed by Rev. Dr. o. F. Bar tholow, of Mount Vernon and elabo- rate plans are on foot for banquet and reception to the founder of the local class
 Rev. Mir. Davis will give brief talk next Sunday on Mothers Day The address will be delivered bya layman from New York.

Washington, May s. Ships and shoes and sealing wax - as well as mucilage, binding twne and miscclla- neous groceries-figure in the $1, ,600,- 6o0,0 saving which Director Dawes of the budget bureau expects to pare from the gross expenditures of the government during 1922 as compared with those of 1921. The detailed re- port sent by President Harding to congress today comprises nearly 100 pages of closely printed items the scope of which would make a glarge department store's offerings seem quite inrted, in comparison
 In computing the economy result ing from the transfer Of surplus ma terial from one department to anoth- CT, Director Dawes credited as saying only the difference between the mar ket price" and the forced sale price. :" Thus a quantity of steel washers and oil, transferred from the shipping board to the public printer, resulted in net estimated savings of exactly 14 cents, one army saddle sent from the ship board to the interior department saved $5.60 and quantity of salt to the marine corps was credited with $11.97.
 Pipes and pipe fittings black smith tools and boilers, complete all came within the survey, along with more deadly items, such as cyanide of potassium which the navy turned over to the treasury for some un- named use.
 Several millions of dollars in ships transferred figured in the report ranging from launch number 449S, valued at $500 to oilers of the Rama poa and Sapello types entered at S635,000 each. The replacement val ue of the oilers was estimated at S1,- 09o, ,000, but Director Dawes held that they would only bring S464,00o al forced sale.
