WAR NEWS FEATURES.
(By United Press.)
London, .Oct 9.—That the stage
still plays an important part in sus
taining public spirit and forwarding
movements for aid of the Red Cross,
has been fully demonstrated here by
' Sir He.hert Tree’s revival of “Drake.”
From the first performance, the
patriotic scenes portrayed in this
drama have aroused the audiences to
tremendous outbursts of patriotic en
thusiasm. Every night the vast audi
ences gather in His Majesty’s thea
tre and wildly cheer the stirring
scenes. The effect of these demon
stration? is being witnessed by heavy
increases in the donations to relief
funds by many recruits from among
the young men theatre- goers.
Sir Herbert produced the play and
gave his services without fee. His
leading lady, Miss Phillis Neilson-
Terry, also donated her services and
the uutnor waived all royalties.
The riote of each performance wit
nesses the inspiring sight of the audi
ence standing to join the players in
singing “God Save the King.”
London, Oct. 9.—Great Britain has
• declared war on Germany’s trade and
detailed plans are already under way
to replace all articles bearing the
familiar “Made in Germany" trade
mark with goods made by English
manufacturers. All foreign consuls
and representatives have been in
structed to supply full details and
sample; of imports and exports of
Germany.
Governors of the various British
dominions have been supplied with
samples of articles that can be man
ufactured in their territories and fac
tories are being ordered into commis
sion for the supply of this trade.
I*.. '■■'■' ■■■"■■
Tokio, Oct. 9.—Since the beginning
of the war between Germany and Ja
pan, there has been what appears to
he a systematic effort to create ill
feeling between Japan and the United
States. This has been manifested in
many ways, but particularly through
the publication of reports of demands
which the United States would make
of Japan, and of American sympathy
for Germany.
A report that the United States had
sold several warships to Germany was
given wide publication and for a few
days created violent anti-American
sentiment. It is generally believed
that Russia is fostering this attitude
in an attempt to weaken Japan by
bringing her into a war with the
United States.
Havre, France, Oct. 9.—The individ
aul bravery of the British army en
gineers is being lauded here by pris
oners and wounded coming from the
front. Ar instant of the courage of
these bridge-builders is shown in the
account of how an engineer sergeant
gave hi 3 life to save from annihilia
tion a small body of English engineers
who were protecting a bridge. The
odds were against them and the Ger
mans were on the point of crossing
the bridge when the sergeant darted
out under the German fire, set a 1
quantity of high explosives under the
first span and destroyed it Forced
to use a short fuse he had no time to
escape and was blown to pieces.
I
Tokio, Det. 9.—For the past two ;
weeks, a large part of the Japanese i
offcialdom has been busy, announcing i
to the spirits of the many Imperial ■
ancestors <th- declaration of war on i
Germane. The most important of i
these ceremonies war held in the Im- i
perial sanctuary in the palace of To- <
kio, conducted by the Emperor him- <
»»lf. Special messengers were" dis-
. ■
patched to the Grand Shrines and the
, tombs of Emperors Uimmu and Mejji.
. The Japanese firmly believe that
. these ceremonies make them invinci
ble in wir owing to the aid given
then, by their ancestors. Most Japan
• cse books dealing with the Russo-Jap
anese war give the Imperial Ances
tors credit for Japan’s victory in that
conflict.
Fads and Fashions.
BY MARGARET MASON.
(Written for the United Press.)
Though Susan and Sally
Are not of the ballet,
Their new skirts are short but sweet;
For since its their passion
To follow the Fashion
They've cut them about two small feet
Itfew York, Oct. 9.—1 saw an ex
hibition of imported garments at a
big department store this week that
hid run the gauntlet from Paris to
Havre packed in huge osier baskets
and lashed on the back of a touring
car. They seemed not the least bit
the worse for the weai of the war.
The mos tstriking feature of the
whole collection was the fact that
each aid every skirt was cut off
short to the tops of the high shoes.
Possibly'their hurrried journey in
stead of making them arrive breath
less with short “pants” had acted in
a similar manner upo ntheir skirts.
Whatever the cause, however, the ef
fect is on exposure of well turned
ankles that seems just barely skirting
the conventions.
Next to the shortness of the skirts
the most startling not is the almost
total lack of anything tangible in the
bodice. Positively they consist of
merely a wisp of tulle passing over
each shoulder for a high girdle to
cling to desperately.
Naturally this is only true of the
evening gowns. One of the prettiest
of these is of pale pink velvet with
a high girdle and a tunic that is long
on one hip and short on the other.
The underskirt is of. white satin and
between it and the pink velvet upper
tunic is an intermediary tunic 'of ex
quisite gold embroidered net.
The bodice of course consists mere
ly of the velvet girdle supplemented
by a slight rdapety of the gold net
"'.7 ar <«
and white tuulc caught up on each
shoulder with & small gold embroider
ed ornamept.
A chaming model for a debutante is
of palest pink taffeta with a skirt
of four-corded flounces flaring out
quaintly lik? a veritable crinoline. A
full rose nestling in the high girdle
and billows of softest blush (I should
think it would), pink tulle, reveals a
snowy throat and perfect arms to
the best advantage.
Another striking evening gown of
black lace over white satin has a wide
piece of the black chantilly caught at
each shoulder that falls behind
straight to the floor like a train.
Another novel use of black chantilly
ofi a black velvet gown precludes the
wearer fro many wild Gesticulation.
The lace is caught on each side of
the girdle in front, passed over the
shoulders like a cape the width of
the lacs being the whole length of the
arms. It is sewed up into long tight
sleeves, through which the arms are
slipped ami then the lace keeps on its
way aronhd intc the circular cape ef
fect and is caught in the middle of
the gird’' l l-ehind. Hence'the wearer
iooks as if ehe had sprouted a pair
of chantilly wings which she un
doubtedly finds very irksome when
Mr. feels her back hair needs fixing.
-t —— t~- -1
Among the suits and afternoon
frocks fur is all and everywhere.
Fitch skunk and our old friend, the
, beaver, are the favorites. The new
est collars shown on the coat suits
are deep flat effects that reach from
the shoulder tc shouldei in the read
without intruding in the front a ilt
tle bit. They are mostly bf the fur
hut a few are developed in heavy silk
or velvet. Black velvet, by the way,
and black satin form most of the aft
ernoon gowns while gabardines,, vel
vets and broadcloths compose the
smartest suits. ~
On the gowns and waist lines are
preferably long and either tightfit
ing or showing the loose straight line.
The seyarate waists and blouses to
the coat suits all show the high
waist line. In the whole collection
there isn’t a frock or a suit that
doesnt’ hnve some glint of a gold or
nament, a shimmer of sequins, a
gleam of jet or the shine of a button
or bead.
This year all that glitters is not
gold. Its sequins, spangles and what
you will just so it gleams, glints or
glistens.

Griffin Christian Church New Enjoys
Complete Freedom From All
Indebtedness.
An instance of progress in Griffin
church nffairs has just occurred that
will be of general interest.
The chujch referred to is the First
Christian church, the Rev. W. A.
Chastain pastor in charge. Two weeks
ago in an inspection of the financial
matters of the congregation it was
learned that an indebtedness of
$640.50 r?stcd upon them. A desire
was expressed among the leaders of
the church that the indebtedness
should b removed at once. Various
plans for the accomplishment of such
an undertaking were considered.
Finally s'x men of the congregation,
Judge T. E. Patterson, Dr. A. C.
Layne, Messrs. D. F. Patterson, J. A.
Scott, J. E. Drewry and J. R. Thax
ton, proposed to the remainder of the
congregation that they would pay off
the account of 3514 resting against
the building, if the others of the
ehurch membership would liquidate
i the 3132.00 expense for the new pave- !
• ment'.
Under the leadership of Mr. Chas
i tain and H. E Williams the congre
; gation accepted the proposition.
During the past three or four days
a canvars ha l- been made of the mem
' bership bv Messrs. Chastain and Wil-
I liams t ith the result that the amount
has been raided.
So, today the Christian church en
joys complete freedom from indebted
ness.
The church not only enjoys this
freedom from financial burdens, but
also enjoys a healthy cpirituai life
excelled by none others in the city.

. ■ pfpWr ’
(Continued from Page 1.)
year's series, Shawkey and other
younger men in the Athletic camp are
primed and ready for the call that
will certainly come to one of them for
service. Behind the bat Mack has
Sehang, who jumped to the Tone in
the last' scries as one of the greatest
catchers o< the game. Stallings has
c ver> confidence in Gowdy, but lanky
Hank is hardly the equal of Schang.
Abou- the second base will be wdg
ed a battle of brains between two of
the great :st strategists on the play
ing weld. In Eddie Collins and Johny
Evers the game’s greutes second base
men are represented. Collins and
Jack Barry at shortstop have long
stood out as the greatest combination
in either league about the keystone
of the infield. Evers has a little
“Rabbit” Maranville working with
him. Maranville is not as old in ex
perience as either Barry or Collins,
but for speed, confidence and dash
nothing is lacking. He works with
Evers in perfect fashion.
The Braves have everything to gain
and nothing to lose. To Stallings not
even a pennant - has fallen before.
Winning is an old story to the Ath
letics and to Mack. Four pennants
and four world’s series champion
ship., have fallen to them. They have
proven invincible. The question the
Braves will attempt to answer is
whether the marvelous machine has
finally outlived its greatness, • and
whether the jinx which has struck so
many other champion* this year is to
work the downfall of tlx Athletics.
The same rules prevailing in other
series exist for the £ames this year.
The players will receive 60 per cent
of the receipts ‘ Wr, the first four
games. Ibis money will be divided,
60 ner cent to the winner and 40 per
cent tb th.? loser. Os these receipts
the clubs will receive 30 per cent
c iut. The players do not share in the
receipts after the first four games, 1
this money being divided, 90 per cent
to the clubs and 10 per cent to the
national commission.
The prices for seats are: Boston
