Wednesday, April 6, 1927 I SO Cl E TV 1 * Navy and Green Plain Taffeta Make an Unusual Suit. Above we have a suit of distinctly sports appeal made— not in the con servative plain woolen—but in gnv navy and green plaid taffeta. The skirt has inverted pleats nt the front for fullness, and the ample pock ets are pleated, too. The jacket is belted across the back only. To carry the plaid idea into real summer wear, one designer has made a dashing little plaid suit of bright crepe de chine. The plaid skirt is attached to a plain white bodice, and colored shoes and hat. to match the predominant color of the plaid, are worn.

MeMillan. millionaire sportsman, who has just returned from a 5.000-mile trip through the interior of Africa. | Deserted on the wastes of the African desert by treacherous natives I with only two gallons of germ-infested |water Dr. McMillan has returned to the comforts of Dixie life. And yet ■he is already planning another trip to the land of man-eating crocodiles and lions. The docter has already made his third trip into the liell-lioles of the Dark Continent and admits that he is a victim of its unexplainable lure. During the last trip across the desert in quest of big game the Birmingham .mnn probably came in contact with more concentrated adventures than many so-called adventurers have in their Whole lives. The desert strip is 200 miles wide, and has never been successfully crossed by automobile, al though I)r. McMillan succeeded in get ting across the worst. With part of his party of guides Victims of the savage raw meateating : Bushmen, of the desert, the Doctor spent dnys under the rays of the blistering sun suffering from want of water until the hnud of nature grew merciful and passed his mind into the land of rosy dreams whieli usually mark the Send of desert victims. A friendly band or wandering tribes men came upon the party and supplied water. Later Dr. McMillan was taken a few hundred yards to the side of a shifting sand dune and there the na tive chieftain showed him a hidden spring from which hot, filthy water see;>ed —but it was good to the parched lips of the Birmingham mnn. Now the sportsman has heard through what he considers good au thority that one of the lakes close to where crossed the desert is the home of a monster resembling the dinosaurns of the past. So he is going back again. ' o GYPSY SMITH. From Time. Fifty years ago, a gypsy boy of 17, with honeyed voice and horny hands, found God in the boom-diddy boom of the Salvation Army drums in 1 the East London slums. General Wil liam Booth asked him to rejoice with 1 a solo. "Keep your heart up, my boy,” snickered a street lout who had not seen the light. “It's in my mouth already. Where do you want it?" said the gypsy lad. And, from that ay, Rodney (Gypsy) Smith has traveled the globe with his heart in his mouth, preaching salva tion, singing “Where He Leads Me I [ Will j Follow," converting thousands. Iq jjtyuth Africa after the Uooer War. negroes and white men quivered and I rose in common prayer before Gypsy I Smith. In Chicago in 188!) lie sought to oust the devil from the. red-light district with a blaring-singing-pray ing midnight parade. Next day, a . hundred tramps and a few daughters [ of joy came to his co-workers to be f cleansed, Gypsy Smith having gone on 1 to the next town. During the World . War, he worked with the Y. M. C. A. - at the front, went through four gas ■ attacks, was decorated by King George - V. i Gypsy Smith’s evangelistic method i is simple. He gets the cockles of the i audiences’ heartß working emotionally i with a few hutnns and one of his i famed talks ("From Gypsy Tent to i Pulpit” or “Three Years With the I Boys in France”) ; then he asks all ' who “intelligently feel the need of Jesus, and mean to give themselves, to Him, body, soul and spirit,,” to rise in prayer. Helloes not i make them trample moldy sawdust before the pub lic gaze. His converts are led into ’ the ‘inquiry room” where pastors and personal' workers act as nurses after a surgical operation, where they are told to rejoice and to go to vytrk win ning new souls. For fifty years Gypsy Smith has opposed the snow-white pul , pits and the gaudy theatrical devices of such sensationalists as Rev. Wil liam A. Sunday and Rev. Aimee Sem ple McPherson. “I am alone,” he once said. “It is just Jesus and I. I have no singer, no press agent, no personal worker and no chorus lead er. .. . Jesus Christ was the greatest gentleman the world ever knew, and He was an evangelist.” Nevertheless, the press last week did not neglect to report that Gypsy Smith, “the father of all evangelists,” was on the way from Columbia, Ga., to Chicago, “on the last legs of a globe-girdling tour during which he I has'converted more than 100,000 men and women.” He will open the three day jubilee of his conversion with a mass meeting at the staid First Congregational Chureh in Oak Park, ; 111., where the Rev. William E. Bar j ton, father of. advertising man Bruce Barton, had long been pastor. Stanly County Has Entirely New Road Board. j Stanly News-Herald.
