Loneliness Kills
Many in New York
NEW YORK. —New York, the
city of approximately 6,000,000
persons of every race and creed,
is nevertheless one of the loneliest
places in the world, according to
the Rev. Dr. Charles H. Sears, su
perintendent of the Baptist City
Mission society.
"Every year men die of loneli
ness here,” he told an audience
in the Mission Avenue Baptist
•church recently.
"No foreign field offers a great
er opportunity for missionary
workers than Manhattan, both be
cause of its vice and its loneli
ness,” he added.
NEW FASHIONS
IN OLD NAMES
Fashions in Christian names are
Changing. Pamela, according to a
London clergyman, is the name of
the moment in England.
"I have been looking through my
parish magazine of twenty years
ago,” he remarked. “I find in the
baptismal entries that Muriel,
Gladys, Daisy, Madge, Marjorie,
Doris, Ethel and Maud are favorite
names.
' "Just before the war there was a
great revival of old-fashioned names
—Mary, Elizabeth, Caroline, Ann,
Prudence, Jane, Priscilla, Margaret.
Beautiful names from the Bible, such
as Rachel, Deborah, Dorcas and
Naomi and so on were very popu
lar.
“Now,” the clergyman continued
with a smile, “all the modern young
mothers want to have their girls
called Pamela. What set the fashion
I don’t know —perhaps it was cer
tain novel whose heroine was called
Pam. Joan is another favorite.
Penelope is liked, but when such a
lovely name is attached to a Grub
or an Onion I fear for the future
of the unfortunate child.
“Boys’ names,” he added, “change
ven’ little. Parents do not go to
Greek mythology or tb sentimental
novels for ideas for their sons’
names. John, William, Richard and
Harold are as beloved by parents
today as they were by the parents
ofr twenty years ago.”—Edinburgh

Alabama Baptists
Establish Records
During Past Year
MONTGOMERY, Ala. — (Special)—
Albama Baptists reported the great
est year in the history of the church
in Alabama when the state Baptists
held their annual convention at De
catur Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday. D. F. Green, secretary

connected with other religious or
ganizations.
Total collections of the organiza
tion during the year were $781,564.54,
which is three times the amount ever
collected before in Alabama in any
one year. These collections cover
state missions, home missions, for
eign missions, benevolences and edu
cation.
The report alsq showed that the
Baptists are the largest church in
the state, the tota' membership, in
cluding negroes, being about 575,000.
, —The annual meeting of the board of
missions was held /Monday night,
i while the first session of the con
vention convened Tuesday.
New York City has an area of 320
square miles, which indicates that
her average distribution of popula

“Shimmy” and Bathing Suits
Stir Up Squabble in Village
NEW' YORK.—TVhen the Broad
way theater, in the village of
Nyach, N. Y., staged a beauty con
test, it stirred up a sensation.
Nyack’s citizenry is still busy issu
ing statements of protest. The ex
citement grew out of the ambitions
of four Nyack high school girls and
two who are not in school to be
come movie actresses.
The theater had issued an an
nouncement, saying: “Here’s your
chance. Become a movie star. Op
portunity offered to local boys and
girls to actually work before a
camera. Movies taken on the stage
at Broadway theater, Nyack, N.
Y.”
Mute Girls to Compete
On other pages of the invitation
it was explained that a company
had t.rranged to present local tal
ent in a stage production and to
take pictures of them as they per
formed.
The six aspiring maidens were
Ethel’ Lyons, Mary Merritt, Marion
Robertson. Edith LSWis, Estelle
Gaynor and Shirley Bailey. Miss
Robertson and Miss Bailey are not
in school. They reported early and
rehearsed their parts.
On the big evening standing room
was at a premium in the Bfbadway
theater. The management offered
prizes to the three who could best
stand the three required tests for
histrionic ability, “for grace, for
form and for control.”
Th» Girls Appear
The prologue was a parade led
by two husky boys, Henry Leeds
and Edgar Bennett, tackles on the
high school football team, who
wore bathing suits and appeared as
life guards. The ■ six amateur bath
ing beauties followed, some in
tights and some in bathing suits.
The crowd of spectators is quoted
as having said “A-TPah.”
Grace was the first quality to be
tested, and the spectators were to
be the judges, showing by applause
the verdict. The aspirants came
upon the stage one by one and
danced. There was much applause.
The winner was hard to pick.
Form was the next on the pro
gram. Each came out and stood on
the stage until her meed of ap
plause was exhausted. It w’as a
close race.
They Do the “Shimmy.”
It turned out that the control
sought was muscular control. A
special platform was placed on the
stage’s center and individually the
girls came and stood upon it. The
“shimmy” was the test for this
quality. As the bathing beauties
showed their proficiency the spec
tators cheered.
When the control test was just
begun and the first of the girls
■rfas about to climb to the platform
the Rev. Mr. Sartell Prentice, pas
tor of the Dutch Reformed church,
was led into the theater by his
young son. Before the third num
ber of the act had begun the Rev.
Mr. Prentice had led his son out of
the theater. Later, he made the fol
lowing statement: *
“I went to see a picture my son
thought was good. When the first
girl came out I thought there was
some mistake When the second
came out I it was no mis
take and I promptly left. It is ex
tremely unfortunate that such a
thing occurred in Nyack. It would
be bad enough with professionals,
but with unsophisticated high school
girls of reputable families —”
• Show Goes On
The show went on. Prizes were
won by Miss Lyons, Miss Merritt
and Miss Robertson.
Protests have been made by well
known The Rev. J. R.
Latham, pastor of the Old Stone
church, has issued a statement pro
testing “against the display made
by young girls of Nyack in the
Broad way theater.
English scientists have found that
glass can be permanently tinted by
immersion in the hot mineral waters
of Bath, famous health resort.
According to French investigators,
rubber is subject to microbe attacks
unless kept in perfectly dry air.
A cover for sewer outlets has been
invented that prevents the entrance
of rats or other animals.
At Lisle, N. Y., a shovel is kept
at a certain muddy cross-walk for
the convenience of the pedestrians.
In Payta, Peru, the interval be
tween showers is about seven days.

Shaking Hands
Reveals Character,
Experts Declare
BY BUSS SIMONTON
CLEVELAND, O. —Maybe some
times, you think your heart is in
your mouth when you shake hands.
But, 'tisn’t at all. Your heart is In
your hand whenever you extend the
jovial flapper to a new acquaintance.
If he’s a wise egg, so to speak, he’ll
feel each little wrinkle of your heart.
There ahe only four kinds of hand
shaking, according to Dr. Charles F.
Boger, personality expert for a vacu
um cleaner company here.
F’rinstance, there’s —
No. I—The1 —The Vise
Watch the new acquaintance’s
thumb work. If he gives your hand
a quick, hard squeeze and presses his
thumb on the back of your hand, he
is a social, liberal and congenial
companion. The kind of a fellow
who would loan a XX to a friend
in need and not ask for a mortgage
on the family spoons. The secret is
in the thumb same as in
No. 2—The Thumbless
a_
When a chap somehow or other
gets his thumb out of the field of
action when he gives you the merry
glad-to-know-you don’t invite him to
eat dinner with you. You’ll have to
pay the bill, the expert indicates.
He’s a tightwad. “Thrifty, econom
ical to a fault, niggardly, almost
miserly and hence a poor associate
in revelry,” are some of the harsn
names the doctor calls this chan.
But the bird who only gives you half
a hand is
No. 3—The Smooth One
j
You know the old stuff—just the
tips of the fingers—oh—l—suppose -
I - gotta - go - through - with - this,
idea? Well, that’s the kind of a fel
low who may talk like Chauncey De
pew and dress like a corporation law
yer, but you have to watch him all
the time, advised Dr. Boger. “Sly,
secretive and cunning,” opines the
personality prof. He isn’t quite as
bad as—
No. 4—The Heavy Hander
aJ
Some fellows’ drop a hand into
yours like it was a brick and they
were tired of holding it. That’s the
kind of a chap who never gets very
far in the world unless he inherits
money. He hasn’t much punch and
pep and he doesn’t care a whoop
whether his lodge holds a parade or
wins the. bowling championship or
not. He’s a bum mixer.
The worst of it is that now that
you are hep to all these handshakes
you can’t change yours a bit even
if you want to. That is, says Dr.
Boger, you can’t change it and fool
an expert because he’ll see your
weak spots in your face and know
that you are faking with the glad
hand.
Day Is Past When
Young Millionaires
Live in Idleness
The rich man’s son of twenty or
even ten years ago, who loved to
frolic with father’s money and the
police, is but a memory now. In his
place stands the rich man’s son who
is learning his father’s business from
the ground up. Most of the rich
men’s sons of today are quiet, studi
ous chaps, who served their country
in France and were brought in close
contact with the “other fellow.”
Many of them are married.
Typical of the rich man’s son of
today are W. A. Harriman, son of
the late E. H. Harriman, and Junius
S. Morgan, son of the late J. P.
Morgan. These two young men have
plunged into the ranks of big busi
ness after a thorough training at the
bottom.
Gnggenheims Follow Mining
Two of the younger Guggenheim
generation, Robert and Edmund Gug
genheim, have plunged into the min
ing business, which broffght fame
and fortune to the seven Guggen
heim brothers. The list might be
extended almost indefinitely. It
might include Vincent Astor, heir
to the Astor millions and now one
of the shrewdest real estate opera
tors in New York City. It might
include Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jr.,
who, via the newspaper route, is de
veloping into a writer.
The list might include all of a half
a hundred or so yo'ung men who are
not letting the fact that fathers or
grandfathers were lucky enough to
amass a fortune stop them from be
coming successful business men
themselves. And any one who thinks
he can trade hordes with any one
of them ’ and get the better horse
will probably find that the chip off
the old block sometimes is as tough,
in a business deal, as the old block
itself.

Pumpkin Pie and Turkey
Reign on Thanksgiving,
Declares Sister Mary
BY SISTEB MABY
(Copyright, 1920.)
Remember the Young American
who didn’t like pumpkin pie because
it disagreed with his ears’
We’re all that way to a certain ex
tent, but party manners restrain us.
And Thanksgiving dinner does call
for pumpkin pie. Nesselrod pudding
and dainty parfaits fulfil their mis
sion at many a dinner, but pumpkin
pi© touches the spot in the hearts and
Appetites of every citizen.
. Traditional Spirit
Our Thanksgiving day is so essen
tially an American family-day that
the dinner may well have the in
formal, homely ( t° uc rt- “From soup
to nuts” the feast best preserves the
traditional spirit of the day by its
simplicity and abundance.
Ever since the Pilgrim Fathers
digrtified the wild turkey by provid
ing it for their first Thanksgiving,
we have accepted it as the national
bird for the day. So even if turkey
is expensive why not serve it and
subordinate the rest of the meal to
it? The cost will be the same in the
end. Let all the other things to
eat be merely filling, supplying the
“homely traditional spirit.” Highly
flavored appetizers, elaborate salads
and desserts/ really have no place in
the Thanksgiving dinner.

The centerpiece for the Thanks

arragned dish of fruits and nuts.
Shiny red apples, golden oranges,
white and Tokay grapes placed in a
silver or cut glass bowl will
the largest mums and be useful as
well as ornamental. Or instead oi
the usual bowl use a pumpkin shell.
A big pumpkin, cut in half with the
top scalloped, filled to overflowing
with fruits and traily vines from the
woods could not be criticized by the
most artistic guest.
Bittersweet berries are in tneir
prime the last* of November and give
a gorgeous bit of color arranged in
a basket with pine branches. A big
basket of these in a rather dark cor
ner of the living room suggests a
ray of sunshine.
Boast Turkey
Choose an 8 or 10-pound hen
turkey. If you are serving so many
people that this size /ill not be
enough, use two birds rather
one bigger one. The meat of
turkey is not as tender or fine
flavored as that of a small one.
After the turkey has been cleaned,
stuffed and trussed, rub the entire
surface with salt. Work 5 table
spoons of butter with 3 tablespoons
of flour and spread over the breast,
legs and wings. Put on the rack in
a self-basting roaster in a hot
oven for 20 minutes. The flour
should begin to brown. Reduce heat
and add 1 1-2 cups of hot water.
When this water cooks away aao
more water and butter and baste
the turkey with a spoon.
s If a self-basting roaster is not
used the turkey should be steam
ed for an hour before roasting
Steam and then stuff and rub witl
butter and fiour and roast a.
usual. The giblets are cooked sep
arately and the water used for
gravy. When the giblets are tender,
put through the food chopper and
strain the gravy over them. A P’ain
bread stuffing is always acceptable
with turkey.
Stuffing
2 1-2 cups stale soft bread
crumbs
1-2 cup melted butter
1 teaspoon salt
1-2 teaspoon pepper
1-2 teaspoon sage (optional)
hot water
Use just enough water to hold
the crumbs together. An egg is not:
necessary if the stuffing is to be
eaten hot.
It’s the pumpkin pie that kin
pump the thanks into Thanksgivinr

No Room in Jail
For This Prisoner
MARTINSBURG, W. Va. "Si
long, judge. I’ll show up when
they’re ready to take me,” and Dr
Harper Judy, 66 years old, drug ad
diet, walked out of the federal court
to await the time when he will be
sent to serve six months in the
federal prison at Atlanta, Ga., for
selling drugs to other addicts.
When the case came up before
Judge Wood, the court learned the
town jail could accommodate no
more prisoners, so the judge allowed
the prisoner to enjoy his liberty un- i
tft sent to the penitentiary.
ADORNED SKULLS
WITH GEMS
A human skull encrusted with tur
quoises recently was dug up near
Mount Chalchihuiti, twenty miles
from Santa Fe, N. M. That the gems
had been set in the bone after death
was evident, because there was no
sign of osseous growth about the in
sets. A number of other skulls sim
ilarly adorned have been found in
this region. They are thought by
■ scientific,men to be the craniums of
an ancient race of cliff dwellers.
Mount Chalchihuiti is honey
combed with the shafts and tunnels
of prehistoric turquoise mines. Im
mense quantities of rock were re
moved by these ancient miners work
ing with crude instruments. These
old tunnels are now called the Won
der Caves. The mountain into which
they bore is full of turquoise. Veins
of turquoise two inches thick may
be seen zigzagging across their falls
of good bearing quartz.
Why the skulls of their dead were
decorated by the anc ent aboriginal
tribes of the southwest is not known,
but it is believed they attributed
some supernatural quality of good
luck to the ''turquoise.—New York
Tribune. ’
With Back Broken
He Hopes for Life
PHILADELPHIA.—EncIosed in a
concrete cast and patiently smiling,
E. Delevan McLean, of Binghamton,
N. Y., war veteran whose back was
broken in France soon after the armi
stice was signed. He’s here in the
Presbyterian hospital looking for
ward to the day two weeks hence
when an exceedingly delicate opera
'tien may restore the use of his limbs.
The three surgeons who are plan
ning the operation are Dr. J. E.
Sweet, of the University of Pennsyl
vania, research staff; Dr. W. B. Cad
walalder, noted neurologist, and Dr.
Charles R. Frazier. An odd coinci
dence is that Dr. Cadwalader, w2>o
served with the A. E. F. was on the
scene of the accident in which Mc-
Lean’s back was broken, and learned
of it for the first time ouly recently
when he was called into consulta
tion.
McLean was hurt when ope of the
rear wheels came off a motor truck
he was driving at high speed near
Colombey-les-Belles. He was hurled
out and his back broken. He was
-brought here in a concrete cast that
took two days and one night to chip
from his body.

Redskins Move to
New Hunting Grounds
Led by their chief, Tony Tommy,
the remaining largest single group
of Seminole Indians, soon will move
from their old haunts near Palm
Beach, Fla., to a new reservation on
the. Florida west coast, about 40
miles from Fort Myers.
The new home of the Semlnoles
will consist of a reservation of ap
proximately 21,000 acres, completely
fenced in and including a partion of
the Everglades. Although part of
the reservation is under water, the
arable portion is sufficient to sup
port the Indians with land to spare.
The Seminoles in their new home
will be provided with schools and
they have agreed to submit to com
pulsory education laws.
