PLAN ID HARNESS
 FUNDY BAY WATERS
Projected Power Plant Has
 Great Possibilities

Portland, Me-. Sept. IS Rt-A SlOO, 100000 project for harnesslng the great tides of the Bay of Fundy so as to generate from 500,000 to 100000. horsepower and supply elec- tricity 10 the eastern section to this country and Canada. has apparently been endorsed by the voters of Maine. The plan conceived by Dex- ter P. Cooper, would store up the waters in Passamaquoddy Bay. re- lease them through turbines in a 15 10 20 foot drop into Cobscook Bay. and supply, it Is estimated 3,26S,- nOO,000 kiowatt hours a year, or four times the capacity of Muscle Shoals.
 At a special election held yester- day the voters approved the pro- posal, according to incomplete re- turns, by vote of 39,426 10 4,S51. These returns, from 1S5 out of 519 cities and towns, also showed large majorities in favor of constitutional amendments for a S3.0O0,000 bridge across the Kennebec river at Bath, and for highway and bridge con- struction through an additional bond issue of from s1O,000.0 1000 10 s2O, 1000. 900.
 Mir. Cooper would build series of dams from the mainland of Maine to that of New Brunswick, thus making two basins of Passama- quoddy and Cobscook Bays, the for mer measuring 100 square miles and the latter so square miles The dam gates to the larger basin. would be kept open during rising tides and those to the smaller during falling tides. These tides ranges from. 21 to 27 feet, and the accumulated water would be sent through power houses between the two bays.
 >The inventor of the project was associated with his brother Hugh l.. Cooper, consulting engineer al Muscle Shoals. in the building of that plant, and built the Keokuk dam. He has said that the Passa maquoddy construction would keer 5000 men working for four years

Increase Since 1921, Federal Council Of Churches Notes

Washington, Sept 1b R,-A col- lection of varied information as to the effect of prohibition on economic conditions and health was made public last night by the research and education department of the federal council of churches as part of its report on the prohibition question.
 No definite conclusions were stat. ed, but it was remarked in the re- port that in general the number of deaths from diseases that grow out Of liquor drinking showed drop in 1920, early in the prohibition re gime, but an increase in the years thereafter. This was one of the tabulations on which the first sec tion of the report suggested that the trend of social consequences Of pro hlbition since 1920 had been dis turbing"
 On the economic side of the ques- ton, the report contained these ob- servations;
 Probably no careful observer will
 
 has not affected a very substantial amelioration of largt numbers of the working class XXX
 "At the same time the appeal to specific economic data-increased business activity, growing bank de- posits, etc.--to prove the effects of prohibition must be made very guardedly. All attempts to measure this increase in quantitative terms are fraught with danger because of the great increase in prosperity since 1921, due to other causes. xxx In addition to the increase in money wages we must consider the eXten- sive thrift campaigns carried on throughout the country xx But it would be idle to dispute the assump- ton that prohibition has been a factor, and an important one, in keeping savings deposits on a high level
 Good authority can also be found for the statement that industry has pronted very materially through

WILL HOLD HEARING
ON BUS LINE PLEAS.
Utilities Body to Consider
Applications for Service
From Wisconsin Avenue.

The Public Utilities Commission to-
day fixed February 4, at 10. o'clock,
for a public hearing on the various
proposals that have been made to i'm
prove transportation from Wisconsin
avenue and vicinity. to the downtown
sections.
There are two definite applications
on file, one from the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Co. and the other
from the Washington Rapid Transit
Co., for the right to run a bus line
from Thirty-Seventh and T streets to
the downtown section by way of Q
street, Massachusetts avenue and X
street. The proposed line of the rail-
way company would terminate at
Tenth and Z streets, while the bus
company proposed to continue out to
Fifteenth street and Maryland avenue
northeast by way of Union Station.
A suggestion also has been made
tute motor busses for street car sery-
ice on Wisconsin avenue. In this con-
nection, however, William F. Ham,
president of the w. R. G. z. system,
has stated that he believes the rail-
way line should be retained, and the
necessary track improvements made
this year.
The Utilities Commission also ap-
proved today the application of the
Washington Railway and Electric Co.
to run a motor bus from its car line
in Anacostia into the community Of
GARFIELD and Barry Farm.

ALTAR IN SALT MINE.
From the Montreal Gazette.


In a quiet corner of the huge salt
mines of Akna Slatina, a small town
on the frontier of Ruthenia and
Rumania, one comes Unexpectedly
upon a tiny altar.
The setting is one of strange
beauty. Walls of glistening salt
lifting their Gothic arches to dim
obsurcity, form it's background.
Electric lamps on high standards
light these walls with magic touch
and they glitter and scintillate, each
face of the salt rejecting the light
until the whole seems an edifice of
jewels.
Morning and night, as the miners
begin and finish the days toll, the
altar is thronged. Fresh flowers are
brought from the world above, and so
great Is considered the favor of ar
ranging them that lots are drawn,
the fortunate man retaining his
office for week.

UNCLE SAM TELLS
GIRL HOW TO ODRESS
Models of FIossie Dresser
and Betty WeIdrest on Dis
/ play at Food Show.

Uncle Sam has frowned Officially"
on gaudy, flapperish clothes for the
schoolgirl. Further than that, he
has put his experts to work and
evolved what he believes to be the
only sensible style of dress for his
millions of nieces of school age.
Here is what he has to say about
the girl who goes to school in the
ravishing attire of would be
"vamp":
Her clothing is unserviceable and
faddish, poor in design and not
suitable for school. Her shoes cramp
her toes, distort her feet, make walk
ing painful and throw her body out
of balance"
Sensible Model Described.
Miss Weldrest, on the other hand.
wears clothing that is Simple and
substantial, becoming in color and
design and otherwise suitable for
school," She wears shoes that ALLOW
her TO stand erect have straight in
ner lines, give room for toe spread
and have sensible heels"
In order that the public of Wash
ington may understand just what he
means by "faddish" clothing and
sensible" clothing, he has gone to
the trouble of having his Department
of Agriculture, through its exhibit
service and under the direction of
Joseph w. Hiscox, chief, arrange a
special life-size exhibit, showing two
schoolgirls properly and improperly
dressed. and has had this unique
demonstration installed at the ma
tional food show and household ex-
position at Convention Hall
The exhibit is attracting wide
spread attention among educational
authorities and parents. The view
shows "F1ossie Dresser" and Betty
Weldrest descending the school
steps In their respective "unservicea-
bic" and appropriate" attires.
Flossie appears to be wearing a

HYMNS Form Links

The Old and the New worlds have
been linked by hymns. Doctor Reeves
tells how American history opened
with the singing Of a Christian hymn.
"On the evening Of September 20, 1892
one OF the companions of Columbus
saw what he thought to be land lying
diulv in the west. From all
three of the ships. as Columbus HIM
self gives the account in his diary,
there rose the sound of the old Gloria
in Excelsis Deo.'" We learn that later
in the history OF Christian America
"The Bay Psalm Book was printed
in the modest dwelling Of the first
president Of Harvard. President
Dwight of Yale, who was a chaplain
in the Revolutionary army, edited and
partly wrote what was for years the
leading hymn and psalm book in the
country In 1877 at Charleston, S. c.,

Buttons, More Buttons

No longer does the button play only
a useful but not ornamental part in
the tout ensemble Of EOman's toilette,
for either it is conspicuous by it's abb
sence or is present in marshaled ranks
in all its decorative possibilities.
With the new type of gown and the
kind Of lingerie women are wearing at
the present time and are apt to con
tinue to wear for a decade, at least,
many a maiden or matron steps out
to work, to shop, or to pay social calls
with not one single button about any
part Of her apparel.
But when she does wear buttons
they extend from the throat to the hem
Of the dress or are sewed in many
little rows like rows Of narrow RIB
bOns, sometimes on an otherwise per
fectly plain frOck.
The tailored coat dresses OF this
winter will have buttons down the
front, down the sides, on the sleeves
and nine times out Of ten they will
be used to button on side f1aring
f1Ounces at the low hip line.
Even the evening dresses will not
escape the decorative button rage and
tiny jeweled ones viii be used to
fasten the drapery on the hip or frank

Spanish Brought the
Orange Into America

The orange was originally a native
Of India, South China or the Malay
archipelago. But its Hindu or San
skirt name was long ago Influenced by
the Latin word 'aurum," or the French
"or," meaning gold; and the whole
tradition of the orange, as it has come
down to us, is through the medium Of
Moorish splendor and Spanish luxury.
The proud Spaniard did not carry
apples with him on his conquests, but
he did take the orange and the lemon.
The former especially came to grace
the festive board Of grandees; and If
any time oranges were lacking at his
hestas, the fastest dispatch riders
were sent to far-away missions to
bring back the coveted fruit.
Although the commercial growth Of
oranges did not begin until the COM
pletion Of the Southern Pacific to New
Orleans in 1881, and received further
impetus when the Santa Fe was built
through in 1885, the first trees were
taken to what is now our Southwest
