Hip yokes are seen on some of
the tailored skirts shown today.

variety. The hip yokes when
used for sports skirts often have
the yoke Of different color than
the rest Of the skirt. It may, for
instance, match stripe or bit
Of braid.
The ur,even hem has reached
the coat today. Many CT the
short coats with bell sleeves are
made with uneven hens, one side
falling far below the other. Some
times there are deep revers, one
of which fastens low on the hip.

Lock Differs From
All Others

The basis Of this remarkable system Is
tho Best lock core. which contains tho lock.
ing mechanism. which can DO fitted 10 any
kcy.locking continuance, ], differs basicaily
from any other lock corc in that II Is re.
movable from tho lock by n simple reverse
turn Of SIS master key. A Best lock core,
adjusted TO fit one key or a number Of keys.
can be quickly removed and adjusted TO fit
additional keys. or adjusted so IL will not
operate TO keys which have been lost or
stolen. Tho Best lock core rcvcrses tho
practice OF the lock industry OF making the
key TO 1T the lock. by making the lock to III
the key, or any number OF keys that is
desired.
Tho Best lock core also differs from all
other lock cores. in that II is manufactured
entirely by automatic machinery from solid
piece of metal making the Best lock not
only far more secure than any other, but also
much cheaper to manufacture than other
locks which are made In parts and assembled
and adjusted by hand.

OF DAVID
PLANS COUP
At TRIAL
Last Minute Legal Move Relied
on to Save King From
Facing Charges.
By Coanopolltan News Service.

BENTON HARBOR, Mich, March
16.-A surprise legal move win be
sprung In Federal court at Grand
Rapids Monday by attorneys for
the House Of David in last min
ute attempt to save King Ben
iauin Purnell from appearing to
answer charges in John Hansels
$8O,000 suit, IL was learned today.
While admitting that he is plan
ming such move. III. w. Dewhirst,
House OF David attorney, refused
today to reveal what form the legal
action will take. He expressed con-
fidence, however, that Hansels suit,
IN which exposure Of alleged inn
morality at the colony is threat
ened, will back fire. and envelop
the persons behind It rather than
those accused.
IN this connection TIT between
Dewirst and Walter M. Nelson, at
torney for Hansel. during hearing
on several motions concerning
House az David suits in st. Joseph
circuit court this week, is recalled.
Nelson suddenly turned to Dew
hirst and said:
.'Ol1, ! suppose you think the
Hansel case Is never coming to a
trial?''
81 don't believe it viii last the
first day out" DeWhirst replied.
Why does the House Of David
persist in keeping King, BENJAMIN
out OF court? This question has
been asked countless times, and has
led to the assumption that the col
ony really has something to con-
ceal.
In reply, Dewhirst said:
I'VE are NOS trying to hide any.
thing. We welcome an investiga-
ton BY the State at any time. and
the State has taken advantage Of
this welcome in past years-and
has found nothing wrong.
What we do object to il this
plain attempt to blaclmai1 the
House az David. One OF Ianselss
principal witnesses. q woman, was
divorces from her husband while
a member Of this colony because
she was found guilty Of improper
conduct with another man. 1t is#
this type Of person who will be
called upon to expose immortality
In the colony. I believe such q
thing ii an imposition on a court
and / do not believe q court win
allow IT,
Regardless Of what plans tha
coIony's legal minds may have.
preparations are being made ny q
number Of King Benjamin's lieu
tenants to attend the trial. At
their head will be "Qheen" Mary
