Where Duplicity is a Virtue
13S2TSSSS2S2S25

When coat is made of brown
matelasse lined with beaver, ii fol-
lows the Biblical injunction TO the
letter, and is glad 10 turn the other
side to its enemies. The only draw
back is that this pelisse from Paris
is utterly incapable of finding an
enemy. So its wearer must content
herself with showing its reversible
beauties to admiring-and envious-
friends.
Snugly wrapped in this chic gar
ment designed by Henri Creange,
one can face with equanimity the
first chill winds of winter On the
matelasse side it is suitable for after
noon wear, the visit, the theatre.
And if we wish to be more sporty
for a brisk mornings walk, presto
change, and we are converted into a
nice, teddy bcarish sort of person.
Note the side fastening with a
single large button. This will be a
favorite on the simpler types OF outer
garments this season. And the edge
of beavor showing all the way
around to the hem. .And the two
chic pockets.
"Pelisse," by the way, is word
we may become more familiar with
as the season advances. Ii means
literally long outer garment lined
with fur, and fur will more than
ever be used to trim and line coat
this winter.

BURKE AND TERRELL TO
HOLD HOG SALES SOON

SARDIS, March 2O.-A co-opera-
tive hog and cattle sale was held in
Sardis today under the auspices of
the Sardis Community club. This is
the first attempt by the citizens of
Sardis to organize community sale
on a large scale. Under the direc-
ton of E. B. Gresham, county dem
onstration agent, the plans for the
sale have been completed and the
rules for grading the hogs haze been
outlined.
1t is believed by those in charge Of
the sale that it will be an unprece-
dented success. The cattle raisers
of this section are much in favor of
the idea, in view of the fact that
each man will receive the highest
market price for his cattle. 1t is
expected that a namber of buyers
will be on hand.

have been dropped from the vocabu-

seems to be nowhere in sight.
The city is promised a fair and
warm weekend and this will mean
that scores will go by train or auto
to the lakes and seashore. A few
weeks ago the city was subjected to
a fierce heat wave and it drove many
away on their vacations but just now
many of those people are wishing
they were taking the summer off.

Rotary and Kiwanis
Clubs to Link Up
for Good of City

A bond of friendship between the
Rotary and KiWaniS clubs was sealed
at the meeting Of the Kiwanis club
and several members Of the Rotary
club last evening at the Elmwood
hotel. Ralph A. Jewell, president of
the Waterville Rotary club gave an
address of welcome to the Kiwanians
who have recently organized. In his
address he declared that the Rotary
club would cooperate with the
Kiwanis club in every undertaking
for the good. He spoke of the worth
of both clubs and their high aims
as we'll as the great opportunity for
service that was before both organi-
cations.
Vice president Percy Smith of the
Kiwanis club thanked Mr.. Jewell in
behalf of the Kiwanians for the
hearty welcome.
DR.. Herbert c. Libby, past presi-
dent of the Waterville Rotary club
and professor of the department of
public speaking at Colby college,
gave the address of the evening on
the subject Of the spirit of Rotary
and Kiwanis.
Speaking from his experience in
Rotary, Professor Libby undertook
to define the purposes of the two or
ganlZatlOnS, ana spoke WIN great
frankness of the more serious mis-
takes that his club had made in it's
efforts to achieve things worthwhile.
IF I can. help you members Of the
Kiwanis club to accomplish some of
your aims quickly without experience
ing costly mistakes, shall count
my talk to you tonight Of some con-
sequence" He urged the club not to
get discouraged over the slow pro-
gress Of human kind, but to remem-
Der that 1t was always to be Line
upon line, line upon line, here a lit
tie, there little" Turning from club
activities, he urged the Kiwanians
to regard their club only as one of
a larger organization, and to so per-
feet their club, so develop their
talent, that they may rise above the
provincial spirit and take a leading
part in a larger field of human en-
deavor. "Such recognition as will
come to your club in consequence"
said Professor Libby, will mean
leadership, and leadership means
power, and power means accomplish
ments."
And speaking of this larger view
that members of the two clubs
should take, Professor Libby said in
conclusion:
II have no doubt whatever but
