UNDIES SIGNIFICANT IN MORMON RELIGION
(Pittsburg Chronicle-Telegraph)
Mrs. Lulu Loveland Shepard recent ly gave her explanation of the nature and significance of the undergarment laid to be worn by all Mormons. The matter came op for discussion at a session ot the world Christian cltlEenship conference at Syria mosque. James B. Talmage, a Mormon apostle, who had asked the privilege of speaking at -the conference, was subjected to a cross-examination by . the delegates. In the course .of the questioning he was asked concerning the sig
nificance of the alleged Mormon un
dergarment. He refused to reply to the question and Mrs. Shepard, who moke on "The Mormon Menace," ex
plained what she says is the reason Tor his silence. Mrs." Shepard says the garment Is elven Mormons who have taken the
Data in the Mormon temple. She suotes the oath from-, senate report
1253. Part I. Fifty-ninth congress. It
Is the report of the United States sen
ite committee on privileges and elections and was signed, she says, by four aemocrats and four- republicans. The
oath as Mrs. Shepard gives it follows:
"Yon and each of you do covenant and
promise that, yon w111 P? ftnd never
cease to pray Almighty uoa to avenge the blood of the prophets upon this
nation. ; and , that you will teach 1 the
same -to your, children and your chil
dren 'unto the third and fourth genera
tion

but usually three ties) Is of red, sign!

Latest picture of Thomas iSdiawn. Thomas A. Edison never wastes any time. While on an automobile trip recently with Henry Ford and John Burroughs,' Ford discovered, on reaching Springfield, Mass., that he needed a shave, and Burroughs remembered that he had to send a telegram. The machine was drawn up near a barber shop, and. while Ford and Burroughs looked after their personal matters Edison bought a paper and eagerly read the latest news on the coal strike.- It was just at this moment that a photographer happened along and took a picture of the great inventor.

garment Instead of the regulation underwear issued by the government. The request was granted. "The garments are white and the symbols are usually of white tape. They can be purchased at the Mormon supply house, but the symbols are usually sewed on by the Mormon women In their homes. In the west the Mormons have symbols' in quite large dimensions and they can plainly be seen as they are hanging on. the clotheslines, but when Mormon elders go away from home the size of the symbols is very much reduced. "The men practically never unloose the garment about the neck, but when the girls go to dances they were low cut gowns as other girls and tuck the church garment down inside their dresses, but never entirely remove it."

A French poilu, Pierre Calel, editor, during the .war, of one of the famous trench newspapers of the French army writes in Llllustration (Parts) a moving account of a pilgrimage made through the various cemeteries of Paris, where hosts of the wars dead lie sleeping. . . The whole history of the war." says the French writer, "appears on the soldiers' tombs. Reading the citations, the names of the battles where these heroes were killed,, on the fronts In France, Italy, the orient and at sea, we observe, passing In review, the armies of France and the colonies, the armies . of her allies and a bitter thought the victims of Gothas, Berthas and those who perished In captivity. All the war is there, bloody.

the dead. " i
M. Calel describes various touching details, as, for example, in the famous cemetery of Pere Lachalse,- the resting nlace of one who Is, "without
doubt, the youngest ' of the soldiers kniPd on the field of honor: "Raoull

INDIANA BEYOND
WEST SUGAR LINE
Stanley Wyckoff, Federal fair price
commissioner for Indiana, has returned from Chicago, where he interviewed officials of the Ariel Meinrath company, distributers for 80 per cent of the beet sugar manufactured in the United States. He learned that the principal sugar producers of he West have sold their sugar at 10 and 10 M centB a pound. "A number of the small Western companies," said Mr. Wyckoff, "have Instructed their Chicago representatives to confine the sales of sugar either to the manufacturing trade or to the Jobbers for resale to their manufacturing trade with the further restriction that the price of he finished product will not be increased on account of the increased cost of the sugar. In spite of the restrictions such offerings have been disposed of as fast as they materialized. Most of these offerings were sold at 17 and 18 cents a pound f. o. b. Utah." Mr. Wyckoff was further informed that in all of the Western offerings the Chicago distributer was instructed not to go east Of the Illinois line, but that if manufacturers or the Jobbing trade of Indiana desire to participate in the offerings subject to restrictions this can be arranged.
