THE SYRACUSE JOURNAL

The Churches of Tomorrow Will Be Able to Rally the New Generation By REV. JAMES GORDON GILKEY, in Christian Century. HERE is the religious message of the new churches. They wilt say to the youth of the future: “You are not here to lie prostrate in the dust, accepting weakly what misfortune thrusts upon you, and calling it stupidly the inexplicable decree of Providence. You are here to work with God and let God work through you until at last these disasters—as much of a tragedy for God as for inen—are forever wiped away. You are here not to accept disease and but to join God’s crusade against them. You are here not to watch men endure pain, but to help them find away to escape it. You are here not to see a hideously cruel social order perpetuate itself, while men say slyly that there will always be poverty, always be unemployment, always be strife and war. “You are here to fight these things—fight them with God who has always been fighting them, and who has forever been dreaming of a world redeemed at last from the horror of poverty and the agony of battle. Here is the meaning of your life, here is the task of the church, here is the purpose of the ultimately triumphant God.” # With a challenge like that the churches of tomorrow will be able to rallv the new generation for the greatest onslaught history has known against sin and suffering, disease and misery, war and hatred. The Church of Christ decadent? Protestantism about to disappear? Oh, no! Once more we see an old order dying, and a new order coming to birth. Once more we see the Living God calling the church forward, after its four centuries of settled life. Once more Christianity gathers strength for a new adventure. Remember This, Men—Mechanics Are Our Last Stand and We Must Use Them By HOMER CROY, in Motor. I’m a perfect gump around machinery—anything more complicated I than a screwdriver makes my head swim. But my wife doesn’t know this. She thinks I am gifted in regard to machinery and I treasure this illusion . . . you know how hard it iis these days to get women to look up to us. It used to be women looked up to us and thought we were perfect. But have you noticed any of that lately ? . . . I thought not. • I have my method of fostering her belief that I am a master of mabchinery. It is a wonderful help in the complicated matter of family driving. When anything goes wrpng with the car, I kap out, lift the hood and say, “Hmmm! Hmmm! Just as I suspected—it’s not hitting right.” As soon as I get the car back to the garage I turn it over to the man and my wife still has one thing in which she can look up to me. Husbands who blurt out that they don’t know a danged thing alfout what » the. matter with the car, and who stand around helplessly, hoping that some kind motorist will stop and tow them in, are making a mistake. Remember this, men—mechanics are our last stand, apd we must take advantage of them. Slip the garage man a dollar and tell him not to talk. He’ll get you. “Nobody Has Courage Enough to Dare to Say This to the Americans” By HENRI LA FONTAINE, Vke President Belgian Senata. Counting every allied soldier as representing 100,000 francs of capital destroyed and each mutilated soldier 50,000 francs, France, Germany, Great Britain and Italy, with 2,650,000 dead and 3,000,000 mutilated, suffered a total capital loss of 415,000,000,000 gold francs. Adding 500,000,000,000 in new debts and 150,000,000,000 for reparations, this represents for the three countries 1,065 billies, or 8,520 francs per head of population. The United States, with 50,000 dead, 100,000 mutilated and 100,000,000,000 francs war debt, bears only 1,000 gold francs per head. The total amount for the three allies and America, taken together, represents ' 5,025 gold francs per head of population. Consequently, to bear a fair share, the Americans ought to pay an ! additional 4,025 gold francs per head; that is to say, about $88,000,000,000, instead of claiming $12,000,000,000 from Europe. Nobody has courage enough to dare to say this to the Americans. If the latter realized it, many of them undoubtedly would admit the justness of the claim that we saved America, and that more than 2,500,000 of our men died for her. That’s what European statesmen ought to tell America. Whjen a Restaurant Patron Can Select His Live Fish From a Tank By BARRY H. RICHARDS, in Forecast. ? Recent innovations in the handling of sea food seem'to hold out hope for even the inland fish-lovers. There are indications that American dealers are waking up to the possibility of transporting live fishes in large : quantities. The day may not be so far distant when the patron of every firet- : class restaurant in the country can walk into his favorite hostelry, select his fish from a number sporting in a tank, and have it served up to him.a | few minutes later, as fresh and tasty as if he had just caught it with rod and reel. This epicurean delight has been possible abroad for some time, notably in Germany, France and England, and in the ghettos of American cijies, but dealers seem toWe now preparing to take up the idea on a big Kale. Last spring New York city saw its first successful shipment of large quantities of live fish by rail. The Self-Centered Egotistic Hypocrite Has No 1 Place With God or Man By REV. DR. J. ALLEN LEAS, Chicago Preacher. The repentant sinner may be forgiven; the earnest seeker for truth and right may be aided; the weak brother may be tolerated. But a sdfI centered egotist is impossible with God and man. He first pnni ciple of good citizenship and the first quality of sonship. Our Savior called the hypocritical egotist a “whited sepulchre, full of d«d men’, bones.” Self-righteousness is but slightly removed from “cave man stuff.” It is ready to sacrifice, for personal advantage, the best friend on earth. It will strive to condemn the very elect if perchance there mav be some personal gain. It is the stuff of which demons are made. It was the cause of the fall of satan, and so long as it remains there can be no hope of pardon. Nor can it be camouflaged by pious platitudes nor mitigated by prayer. The self-centered man, the egotistic hypocrite, has no place with God or man. Rev. Horace C. Stanton, Secretary Presbyterian Ministerial Association of Philadelphia.—Are other worlds inhabited? I don’t know. But w« do know/ that earth and heaven are inhabited. There are, perhaps, a million other worlds. Science can bring only a few of them within the range of mortal eye. The location of heaven is unimportant “For all we know it may be one of the stars which we can see on a clear night” Beatrice Keane Seymour, in “The Hopeful Journey.”—The goal for us is El Dorado. You can’t tell us there isn’t one —only that you haven’t found yoore Well, we’re going to find ours. ... If you could stop us believing that you’d stop everything.

Paris Passes on the Latest Spring Mode

After years of tcarceiy perceptible i last season brought- about a radical modification in the outline of i dress. The two parallel lines which I constitute the feminine silhouette i broadened slightly toward the bottom to form the shaped skin. The same i contour characterizes the spring mode, I even slimmer than before and distinct- i ly shorter, and it is only in the details I of the costume that any appreciable 1 departure from the previous season 1 can be noted, asserts a Paris fashion I writer in the New York Tribune. The Patou models are an exemplification ! of the artistry of the designer, diversifying the unchanged line with an adept manipulation of flounce, plait, and panel. J Skirts have been decidedljy shortened—their average length/ varies from ten to twelve Inches anove the ground. In combination wlth/the slmIM ntw w. Evening Gown of Silver Brocade Showing Chine Flowers in Pink and Green. pie line of the skirt these short lengths endow the wearer with the appearance of a sixteen-year-old girl—at least when viewed from the back. In the Patou spring collection are three basic keynotes. First, there is the shaped flounce, which preserves ; its preponderant role In the formal evening gown—it becomes more complicated. it tapers. It undulates —but it remains the outstanding feature of this type of dress. Plaits In Limelight. Second, and of greatest importance, are plaits. The plaited dress in all its forms is a distinct manifestation of the season and finds varied expression in the tailor-made costume, the summer frock and in dresses for the seaside and spa. Patou has placed * marked emphasis upon novel plaitings’ and they are used in numberless ways ■ on frocks, cloaks and Jackets, even for linings. The amalgamation of the plaited : form with the shaped form will in all probability lead to a return to the fashions of the 1887-W period. But ■ “ies elegantes” may be reassured; they ’ will nut be transformed into modern | de Maupassant heroines, for the return to the *BOB will be highly modernized. ’ The shaped flounce will diminish Ln'

Collars Are Feature of Dresses

In daytime dresses the soft, rolling I collar is much featured by this designer—a contrast to the long, re vers-like shawl collars which appear on her j jumper sports dresses. On afternoon frocks of crepe de chine or printed ; mousseline the slightly rounding neckline Is beaded by a narrow band of the ■ material which ties «>n the left shoul- i der, center front or half-way between. [ according to the cut of the dress. i The bateau necksine is also non i grata with Agnes, whose every model! exploits a collar, or at irast a suggee- I tion thereof. Most of these collars are i small and round and of the lingerie I type of organdie, linen and silk. jI i Georgette aud Patou are nonpar- i tisan. The short, round line, the ba-1 ! teau neck and the V neckline are I j treated with equal impartiality In i collect lons. Jenny also varies: the line, but shows a marked tenden-1 cy toward the V cut. particularly in blouses. The scarf, of course, is ths piece de resistance of the spring neckline. In the collection of Chanel this decorative note is unusually significant. Almost

FASHION NOTES IN BRIEF

In most Instances fine embroideries are used on dark grounds while lighter shades are treated with more tailored ornamentation. Many of the embroidered designs simulate, s tapestry designs. and tiny flowers in which high colors are a repeated Item. In the evening models, beading Is extensively though not lavishly employed and metal picoting and lace are other means of decoration for gowns. Among the strange bracelets now being worn—and anything seems to be a bracelet today—is one of brightly tinted velvet. Worn tightly around the wrist, the bracelet -has a fringe of fur. The sleeveless arm is wearing a fanciful ornament these evenings. It sometimes takes the shape of a big cabochon set in a slender armlet, or of a jewel with drop ends on slender chains. Procure a piece of oilcloth the length of your sink and about half r yard deep; paste It neatly on the wall at the back of the sink. It will be easily kept dean, and will wear a long

size, but in order to give it volume It will be plaited. On long, simple tunics it amplifies the lower part of the silhouette—a forecast of the fashions of tomorrow. The third fundamental characteristic of the Patou showing Is the ensemble—a combination of outlines with harmonizing or soft blending colors. It is an inseparable whole, the final theme of Innumerable variations, and Is particularly notewprthy In sports frocks, afternoon gowns and evening robes, most of which are combined with a cloak Intended to be worn s 8 an integral part of the costume. The ensembles du soir chez Patou are very lovely. The long evening wraps are richly embroidered or trimmed with costly furs ruch as sable and chinchilla and the dresses are equally beautiful. One model shows a gown of green artificial satin elaborately embroidered in gold, silver and copper threads. The wrap Is black and is lined with the green satin of the gown. Caps of. Red Velvet. Another shows a cape developed In a beautiful shade of bright red velvet • with a huge collar of chinchilla fur, and a dress of crepe romaine In the same vivid red. The cascading panel at the left side is ornamented with a spray of paradise dyed to match the dress. A very striking ensemble shows a green velvet wrap with a sable collar and a dress of gold net, embroidered in turquoise blue and gold beads and gold and old rose threads. The range of spring and summer afternoon gowns is much more extensive than that for winter wear. Ttup year the three-piece gown has disappeared from the salons of Patou. It has been replaced by. the tailored gown and by the afternoon ensemble consisting of a dress and coat especially designed to be worn together. Plaiting, the inevitable method of ornamentation, is the principal trimming note on, this type of costume. Nearly all the tailored suits rely upon plaiting in some form for their elaboration. Stitched- plaits in band form, side plaits forming panels, wide, Inverted plaits stitched three-quarters of their length and then allowed to hang freely, and box plaits are noteworthy. Plaits are also used as a trimming for jackets, and the same idea is carried out In the skirt. The sports costume has attained a position of primary importance in the modes of spring and summer. The models of Patou are always very simple and chic, principally because of the character of the materials. Particularly adapted to tennis are skirts with multiple plaits worn with sweaters tn frisotta—a new and very successful fabric, the richness of whose tints Is very pleasing to the eye under the glare of the summer sun. Other sports costumes tn more neutral and duller tones are carried ouVln English cheviots and men’s woolen suitings. Leather is the predominant fabrte for motor cloaks and the newest models are developed in bright shades of red and blue. , New Necklines. The lack of variety In the spring silhouette has thrown the burden of the new mode upon the details of dress, 1 which, as a consequence, know no restraining mandates. The neckline in i particular has been subjected to varied manipulations by the leading design- " j ers of Paris. ’ - Chanel shows a decided change In the neckline—a departure from the bateau form. In fact, she entirely ■ neglects this type. In her collection are many round necklines, particui larly in evening dresses, the back being cut much deeper than the front, frequently to below the shoulder blades.

every evening gown has its accompanying scarf, always of the same material. and varying In length from the short, stubby scarf to the lung and flowing type. Only in a few instances does It form an Inseparable part of the dress. An evening gown of black lace with round decolletage shows the scarf drawn across the front and attached at each shoulder, while the ends are allowed to hang freely. A cluster of pink roses Is placed on either shoulder where the scarf is attached. g The spring collection of one prominent French designer emphasizes strongly the straight and slender silhouette. Ail-models show extremely straight backs and in. nearly every instance an unbroken line from shoulder to hem. With a few exceptions, all ornamentation appears In the front, and any suggestion of a waistline Is given through the banging of shirred, finely plaited or tiny tucked apron fronts or flowing panels. In such Instances the waistline is low, but the dress proper very straight, tight-fitting and short, seemingly appropriate only for the most slender, youthful figure.

Time, but can easily be pulled off and replaced when worn out For young girls there are two distinct modes. One harks back to the basque with Its accompanying wide skirt. The other keeps to straight lines, with a little plaited vestlike front and long, snog sleevea Sistine-blue poplin makes a lovely and serviceable spread for a small girl’s bed, made with two five-inch flounces of satin ribbon to match. The pillow cover has a double ruffle of two-inch ribbon at each end. Corduroy, having become, fashionable again, has also become remarkably pliant in texture. In shades of orchid, raabogany. blue and rose. It is made Into smart tailored boudoir robes which are very popular with girls of college age. The handkerchief has grown more giddy In coloring and has become an important article of dress. Debutantes are fastening their handkerchiefs to small rings, which they wear upon tbs little finger. ■ .
