FAREWELL PARTY

The ladies of the Altar society of
st. Stephens Catholic church invited
number of old time friends and
neighbors of Mrs. Sam Dougan to the
Legion hall, Monday evening, where
they spent delightful evening. Mrs.
Dougan plans to leave Sunday for Cal
ifornia to join her husband, and the
affair was planned as surprise for
her, but she surmised it beforehnd.
About fifty ladies were present and
spent the evening with cards and So
cial converse until late hour when
delicious refreshments were enjoyed.

society and friends presented Mrs.
Dougan with two beautiful gifts as a
remembrance to her in her new home.

PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

The annual congregational meeting
was held last Tuesday evening. A
good attendance and very profitable
meeting. While the meeting is called
for business, yet more than cold bust
ness was manifest all the time. A fine
spirit of cooperation and desire to
be of help to the church and be able
to do something for the spiritual and
moral uplift of the community was
manifest all the way through.
Splendid reports were made from all
departments of the church. All show
an increase in every way. Our Sun
day school is growing rapidly and be-
gins to look like we will have to add
more rooms. The Women 8 Missionary
society gave report which did us all
good. Our society has great record
both in the Presbytery and the Synod.
Reports were given by the Aid society
which came as surprise to many of
us. The work they have done in the
last year is wonderful. The church
treasurer gave the financial report
which shows the church in good con-
dition financially.
Bigger things for next year is the
motto.
Elders and trustees were elected and
will be installed soon. Many forward
steps were taken along all, lines.

Perched atop of their meagre
Lares and Penates, this family of
refugees is leaving Salonica to seek
a. new home in the interior OF
Greece. This movement from the
port towns, which were over
whelmed by the influx of destitute,
following the destruction of Smyrna
and the evacuation of Thrace after
the defeat of the Greek armies, is
said by observers in the field to be
doomed in many cases to failure.
Greece is not new, unworked
country and American Red Cross
reports agree with Greek govern
ment pronouncements that the as
similation of 100000 heterogeneous
persons is virtually impossible.
Since September, when the refu-
gees began to pour into Greece from
Anatolia and Eastern Thrace, the
American Red Cross has been ex-
tending emergency relief. It was
so successful in carrying out its re-
lief program that the refugees were
quickly supplied with food and
blankets. In CONSCIENCE of this the
suffering from hunger and exposure
was reduced to minimum. The
danger of epidemics among the ref
ugees was combatted by the en-
:orcement Of the strictest measures

CRYING FOE HELP

When they fail the blood becomes

There can be no health where there

The evangelistic meetings at the
church begun Easter Sunday have met
with fine response and measured
fully up to our expectations. There
have been number of decisions, and
some twenty-five or thirty among the
young people have taken advanced
steps and are determined to do more
for the kingdom. The entire church
has been wonderfully quickened and
revived
One very helpful feature of the eff
fort being put forth is the cottage
prayer meetings that are held every
day at ten clock. Many have been
inspired and received new strength in
these meetings.
DR.. Kendall has proven himself to
be a master in his line of work. He
is not only a trained, but an expert
enced leader. He believes in rugged
gospel, and breaches, in no uncertain
sound, that gospel sis the power of
God unto salvation" If anybody
wants to be better man or better
woman, and learn something of the
purpose of God concerning them, It
will be well worth their while to come
and hear this man that God has won
derfully used in helping folks.
Cottage prayer meetings win con-
tinue each day at ten O'Clock, place
to be announced at evening service.
Next Friday evening will be Public
School and Young Peoples night. We
are expecting a large attendance at
this service.
There will be no service Saturday
evening. We will spend the time pray
ing and getting ourselves ready for a
great day Sunday.

Healthful eorseting means com
fort-and is a step in the right d.
rection. It is so important that Mrs.
Harrington and Mrs. Griebel, home
economies specialists OF the New
Jersey Agricultural College are ar
ranging demonstrations showing the
proper fitting corsets. They will be
assisted by a demonstrator from n
OF the well known corset houses.
'Corsets that are designed right
and fitted right always improve
looks and usually improve health"
says Mrs. Griebel. "Corsets mean
more to health and comfort than any
other item Of clothing except Shoes.
The n ature woman of today cannot
discard the support of a corset since
she has depended or 1t from girl
hood as her mother did before her.
I'VE all want to be slender. In
1890 a slender waist was all mat
was needed, but today a straieht
unhampered figure is the standard
of beauty. Corsets that make bend

DON'T GUSH

A chronic case of exaggeration, an overdose of tact and a
frequent injection of flattery-that is gush.
1t is a bad characteristic this gushing trait. It may work
for a while but sooner or later the person who gushes is
stamped with their true label, insincerity.
How about youf Do you gush7 When one of your friends
appears in a new dress, whether you really like it or not, do
you tell her with the most ELUSIVE string of adjectives how
stunning and good looking it isl Do you tell her it is just
the right color for her to wear for it matches her eyes and hair
SO perfectly and that it is SO becoming it makes her look as
pretty as a picturef If you do that's gush.
Don't misunderstood me. If you like the dress by all
means say SO but be sincere about it. Don't gush. The ten
dency with many people is to refrain from telling people
people things, but often these same people never fail to ex-
press themselves if they don't like a thing. With such a type
Of person If a dress were unbecoming they would be sure to
comment on it, but if it pleased them silence would be their
method. That is wrong and a sign of a very small nature.
Don't be that kind of person. Appreciation and appreciation
mean much to us all. People are hungry for it. When you can
honestly give it always do it but don't be dishonest and gush.
Debut don't override. Keep that your rule in this as in
SO many other instances, and you will be in no danger of de-
veloping into a gushing person.

Oft in the summer nighttime ere
slumber's chain has bound us we
hear sleep-wrecking noises In the
streets and houses round us.
Just when we hit the mattress and
seek our soothing pillows to dream
of frigid icebergs amid the cooling
pillows, though the temperature is
soaring and it's hot enough to
scorch, they are tuning up the fox
trots on the next door neighbours
porch.
Borne on the torrid breezes in ac-
cents deep and dark, The voice of
Bell-Pants Harold is singing at a
mark. He starts the moment musical
by warbling "Old Black Joe" and all
the other sure-fire hits that Grand
pop used to know.

jazz tunes" by the score, the trou-
bador a-twitter serenades us DER and

Across the hall a party. We know
they're playing rum, and from the

A piano players working with all

Bunch is dancing to its thumpety
refrain. The ceiling right above us
where we vainly seek repose, NAV

At last there is a silence. The

But alas for expectations, the

He plays a bottle solo as he gayly

WEST HOBOKEN. N. J.-Pai's,
p~etticoats and politics. They're all
mixed UP in a fight which Mrs.
Evangeline Duff is staging to gain
the mayoralty nomination here.
For Mrs. Duff, being a woman
and health commissioner of the city
at that, was expected to come forth
with q platform advocating a rigid
adherence to prohibition. Instead of
which she has startled the commun-
ity by coming out fatty for tin pals

couple of inches of collar"

"Ill enforce the law with both
hands. But that doesn't have to
keep me from talking. And I'm for
light wines and beer.
THE tin pail is honest. The silver
hlagreed hip flask isn't"
Mrs Duff says that secretly most
of the women in the country agree
with her.
"They're tired of this sham" she
continues. 'I've talked with women
all over the country.

"These women, as well as the
wives of working men are tired OF
hypocrisy. All they need is a wo-
man with courage enough to come
out and say So"
Mrs. Duff believes that she Is that
woman. And there may be founda-
tions for her courage.
Known as the best dressed woman
for her size (she admits to close to
zoo pounds) in West Hoboken, she
has travelled all over the country de-
livering lectures upon those fashions
popularity known as stylish stouts."
Between lectures she sounded out
feminine opinion on matters ranging
from mud packs to Australian bal
lots.
It is the result of those opinions
which is giving her courage now in
her fight for the mayoralty on an
advocacy of light wines and bee
And Just to show that she has the
whole family in mind, she is advo-
eating more milk for the school chill
dren. Her scheme is for each family
in a city block to contribute a quart
a week.
Not that Mrs. Duff's platform is
exclusively liquid. She also urges
police matrons in the parks, women
on grand juries and stricter divorce
laws. But it is on the little matter
of four per cen and a collar that
she is pinning her faith.

on my stand and I know the women

Although she was not endowed
with a fine education, Sarah Ford,
mother of DIR. Samuel johnson, great
writer and one of the most Alctur-

London, was, according to the

ed understandings" From her sons
childhood, Boswell wrote, she SEEM
ed to realize that he had greater
potentialities than most children,
and did everything she could to
encourage and foster them.
Sarah Ford, coming as she did
from a very old and honorable fam
lily of the Warwickshire yeomanry,
was sound in principles and in good
sense. as well as in a kind OF in
st.nctive comprehension of the more
subtle things in life. She combined
intelligence with piety, and made
every effort to rear her son in this

MOTHERS OF FAMOUS MEN
THE MOTHER OF DIR. SAMUEL JOHNSON
By MARY ADRIAN

Although she was exceedingly
proud of her sons accomplishments
and by no means insensible of his
future greatness. Mr.. Johnson never
allowed herelf to grow vain about
it or to flatter him into a spirit of
superiority. She was fully aware of
his value. but had far too much
good sense says Boswell to be vain.
Although his father was a man
of considerable education, and his
mother almost entirely lacking in
that, a situation which did not
make for a very happy marriage.
the sympathy of johnson seems to
have been strong for his mother.
He grew up quite unlike her in
temperament, yet there was always
this bond of her early and instructive
understanding that held them to-
gether and made him regard her
with the greatest affection and re-
spect.
