SYMBOLIC
PART
Even Old Testament Tells Of
Hand Coverings Used
AZ EnbIems

All through the ages gloves have
played ~ part az symbols in the
transaction Of human affairs. Even
IN, the Old Testament there is q
mention of covering for the hands
used as an emblem. this occurring
In the fourth chapter Of Ruth where
Il IL recorded: "A man plucked off
his shoe and gave it to his neigh
Dor and this was a testimony to
Israel. Bible students agree that
this shoe was in reality a glove.
Gloves In many chapters of the
worlds history were emblems by
which tenure was granted. One
student of costume argues that
gloves antedated the periods usually
mentioned as being the first during
which they were worn: he claims
peacockery is as old as Adam. and
hands therefore had a covering
even in the days when Cain was
filling the soil and Abel was shep-
herding, his flock.
In the time of Charlemagne.
gloves played an important part in
the life of the Franks. and the
abbott and monks of Sithin were
allowed to go hunting for the pur-
pose Of procuring the skins of
deer. The dressing of the leather
and the making Of the gloves was
an occupation of the monasteries-
as was also illuminating and the
binding Of books
"A designer of playing cards in
the time Of Charles TX created some
OF the richest designs for the gloves

on each Of which there was snail
with its horns out posed on the
petal of a tulip, all richly embroid-
cred and each section as carefully
considered as a miniature lunetto.
On the buckskin gloves of the
Seventeenth Century from which
are descended the buckslxin riding
gloves Of today, the ornamentation
often consisted of refined bullion
work. and many of the gloves of
the directoire period were at times
made Of scarlet leather with a
white lining.
Modern gloves Of fine kid with or
namental cuffs are the offspring Of
those worn by Mary, Queen of
Scots and Queen Elizabeth. For
the Scottish ueen, pair cut from
buff-colored leather was made and
the gauntlets were worked with sill
yer. wire and rich silks. In the
wardrobe of Good Queen BeSs who
was very proud of her hands,
though the middle finger was four
and three.quarter inches long. there
were perfumed gloves, the first OF
which were brought to England
from Italy by the Earl of Oxford.
:, In addition to the perfumed glove
there was the poisoned glove, such
as figured in the death of the
Queen Dowager OF Navarro, on the
eve of the Massacre of st. Barth-
olomew. A curious custom Of the
eighteenth century was the giving
away of black gloves, funeral
gloves" to be worn "in memoriarn.' %
When Governor Belcher, of Boston,
died in 1886 more, than one thousand
pairs of these gloves were distrib-

when the automobile turned over.
Lefevre and his son escaped serious
injury.
Constable Waltman says that
earlier in the day Lefevre came to
his home and asked for aid in
tracing his son, who had disap-
peared from home. The constable
entered Lefevre's car. After a
search Of the neighborhood they To-
Gated the boy on nearby farm,
and the constable induced him to re-
turn home. With the father the
constable and the boy entered the
machine and started homeward.
Outside Of Quarryville, Mailman
saw Lefevre was acting in Pc
culiar manner. Faster and faster
the car sped over the road until the
engine was roaring. Waltman, fear
full Lefevre would send the car to
destruction IL he, interfered, sought
to induce him to lessen the speed.
But Lefevre, Waltman says, was oD.

panic stricken and pleaded with his
father to take his foot from the
gas"
While the constable and son at.
tempted to talk with the man, the
car struck a slight depression in the
road and rolled over. Waltman was
badly cut from head to foot ami his
clothing torn to shreds. The boy
