they appear to be much trimmer and
neater-very spic and span-they
really do take less time to dress.
This fact, so long as it applies,
must have its influence on the de-
velopment of fashion, for no mode
can now come into favor that needs
complicated adjustment. Most frocks
and bodices of today go on over the
head and need no fasteners. Short
hair-shingied or bobbed-favors this.
With elaborately puffed and netted
hair the slip-on frocks of today would
have been regarded as more bother
some than the old-fashioned sort that
hooked or snapped into position. But
with permanently waved or severely
straight short hair the slip-on frock
does no damage that cannot be
remedied with a toss of the head or

c. N. CAMPBELL APPOINTED AS
SlSTANT PROSECUTING ATToR-
NEY OF BERKELEY COUNTY.

Prosecuting Attorney Herbert f.
Hannis, of Berkeley County, has am
nounced that he had appointed At
torney Charles N. campbell as his as
sistant for the remainder of the
term.
The appointment was made under
the authority vested in him under the
law governing such appointments and
the new assistant at once enters upon
his duties. There has been no assis-
tant to the prosecuting attorney since
Attorney d. IL. Rodgers resigned
more than year ago. since when
Prosecutor Hannis has been taking
care of the situation himself. On a
number of occasions he has felt the
need of an assistant and with the
prospects of large number of erim-
mai cases at the next term of Circuit
Court, the necessity of having some
assistance was deemed imperative.
Mr.. Campbell is regarded as one of
the most aggressive and capable
criminal lawyers in the Eastern Pan
handle in addition to his prominence
and ability along other legal lines.
and the combination of Mr.. Hannis
and himself was popularity acclaimed
when 1t became known. In the very
near future Mr.. Campbell will asso.
ciate himself with Mr.. Hannis in the
general practice Of law, il was said.
For some years past he has been as.
sociated with Attorney Allen B. Noll
Prior to that he was an assistant ia
the late Y. s. District Attorney s. w
Walker, during which period he at.
tracted widespread attention as a
keen and successful LAWYER.

NINE BREAK JAIL AT BERKELEY
SUNDAY MORN

Berkeley Springs, March 30
Eight of the thirteen prisoners con-
fined in the local Jail dug their way
out some time in the early morning
hours of Sunday and today were at
liberty. The other five prisoners, so
far as known, made no effort to es-
cape. Officials are looking for the
fugitives, but are staging no inten-
sive search inasmuch as the men,
five colored and three white,-were
all Migrants arrested for trespassing
on railroad property and held here on
misdemeanor charges.
The prisoners used a knife and a
poker to dig the hole through the
wall. All of, the prisoners had ac-
cess to the corridor about the cell tier
instead of being locked up in their
cells. They stripped blankets and
tied the strips together to make a
rope to drop themselves to the ground
outside the jail. Just what time the
escape was affected is not known.
Sheriff O.. B. Hovermale found the
men missing when he went to the
corridor yesterday morning.
The jail is located near the court
house in the downtown section of
Berkeley Springs. None of the resi-
dents in the neighborhood of the
prison report having seen or heard
anything of the fugitives when they
made their escane

AN APPEAL FOR FUNDS.
March 81, 1925.

NAN%- - 49,
Dear Sir:
At Barraekville, West Virginia,
miles from Fairmont, at $50 o'clock
on the night of Tuesday, March IT,
1925, in a mine known as Bethlehem
No. 41 of the Bethlehem Mines Cor
poration, Ga shaft minel a disastrous
explosion occurred. which resulted in
the death of everyone of the thirty
three men in the mine on the night
shift.
As a result of this disaster sixty
eight children have been made father
less and some of them entirely or
phaned.
Immediate aid is being given these
families by the mining company and
there will be no physical distress due
to want in the immediate future.
There remains, however, the impor-
tant problem of aiding these widowed
mothers and orphaned children to
make REIMBURSEMENT of their lives
either in this community or else
where, which aid must come largely
from the general public.
1t has been estimated that, in adj
dition to the aid that will come to
these families through the Workmen's
Compensation Fund, from Mothers
Pension Funds, and other sources, an
amount equal at least to an average
of $1,000 per family will be needed
to get them thoroughly re-established
In their new environment and adjust
ed to their new conditions in life and
until the children can become self
supporting. This period of re-adjust-
ment is very important one for
these families and to society as a
whole, and enlightened welfare work
will be needed over an extended per-
iod of time.
The Red Cross Society, through its
National organization and the local
chapter at Fairmont, has been desig-
/ mated as the agency through which
the rehabilitation of these unfortun-
ate families will be carried on. Such
work is to be done in cooperation
with representatives of this general
Relief Committee.
We are appealing to the generous
people of West Virginia to contrib
ute fund of .$35, 000-every penny
of which will be used directly TO the
relief of these afflicted widows and
orphans. The Red Cross Society
will pay all expenses in connection
with the raising of the Fund and it's
proper application from its own
treasury.
Inclosed herewith is printed en-
velope addressed to the headquarters
of this Committee, which please use
when forwarding your response to
j this appeal. Make checks PAYABLE
] to Barrackville Mine Disaster Relief
Committee IN. L. Brown, Treasurer)
and forward at your earliest conven-
fence. Due acknowledgment will be
made of your contribution and due
credit given in the report to be pub
lished when the Committees task has
been accomplished.
/ Appeals for aid are not being sent
outside of West Virginia for the
j reason that the amount required is
not large and on account of the fact
that National campign will no
doubt be organized and gotten under
way for those hundreds of families
suffering from the recent tornado in
the Middle West.
