Gets His I'ass to Heaven.
A news story comes from Gaffcey'
that F. T. Warlick, 80 year old con
federate veteran, has recently collect
ed from Charles Milan .a debt of $l.f>0
which Milan contracted eighteen year -
ago. Milan in paying the debt, said
that he wanted to go to heaven when
he dies, Milan sought his creditor at
his '.ome a few days ago, and iri set
tling the account, explained ho had
decided that he could nf>t go to heaven
when he dies if he does not pay his
debts. 'We do not know anything of
the debtor nor creditor in this case
but we feel sure that the religion of
Milan '3 sound and we commend it
to some we know hereabouts. Such
an action as this is calculated to bring
a smile, but when you begin to analyze
it you cannot but approve it. How

SHORTER SKIRTS THIS SUMMER '
Last Monday the National Cloak ?
Suit and Shirt Manufacturer's Associ
ation met at Cleveland, Ohio and "ap
proved style recommendations for
next spring and summer and this is
what the association did about it all:
"Skirts as an average will be worn
10 inches from the ground and in ex
treme en^es 15 inches. Sprightline s
of stylo as well as of color will em
phasize the new spring crcations.The
summer silhouette effect will continue ,
the foundation for the new season's
styles and many new variation* in
the cut of garments will be introduced
including the tunic theme and circu-j
lar cuts. But in all cases the garm- 1
ents will be worn to ach'evo tho i
straight lien, slender type
"|n sport coats the mannish cut will I
| be strongly evidenced.
| "The shorter length skirt will havo
jits influence upon the style of new
'spring coats, which will be somewhat,
shortened in length." j
! Now thnt the skirts are to be short
er it doesn't matter very much nbout
j the rest, except there must be some
variation?, we should think, about the
general adoption of the "silhouette
.effect," as we are informed that, all
figures would not look well with that
I ort of "effect."i But it doesn't mat
ter. There is no help for it whatever
] it may he and we aro for all of them,
silhouette or no silhouette, we are
for them "a-comin, and a-gw?ne."-?
