Prayer Book Is Killing Of Santa (By Lawrence Sullivan, INS Staff Correspondent Washington.—Santa Claus is officially dead—killed by a stroke of a pen in the hands of the Church of England’s Committee on the Revision of the Hook of Common Prayer. If the sentiment of cosmopoli tan Washington truly reflects the reaction of the United States at large the New Prayer Book, conies of which have just been rerei-'-vl by Englishmen in the capital, the Committee'* work is destined for hardsledging in St. Nick’s Ameri can dominion. But not alone Santa is stricken from the New Prayer Book’s cal endar of feast day: with him has gone St. Valentine, undoubtedly only second iri point of American popularity* of all the saints of the nges. Secret Meetings The deliberations of the Com mittee on revisions being secret the reasons for thp elimination of these two idols from the calendar of the Saints are only to be guess ed. The most widely accepted view Is that the committee probably could not find sufficient historical; proof of their existence to justify1 their inclusion in the list. At any ' rate, both ore now officially nor extar.t In the Church of England, or at least in that portion which elects to follow the liturgy of the New Book of Common Prayer. i Poor St. Nicholas, While Christmas, of course, re mains the great feast day of the church, its rites henceforth are in celebration of the birth of Christ1 rather than the festal day of St. i Nicholas, alias Santa Claus. Behind the decision of the Com mittee may lie good and sufficient' reasons for the elimination of St. Nicholas’ day, for it has been long recognized by scholars of early: church lore that the original St. Nick* was the patron saint of thieves, sailors and pawnbrokers. How he over became the personi fication of Christmas has never been explained. And as he came, so he goes-^ without explanation or justifies- ! tion. So goes St. Valentine, the legendary founded of personifica tion of nil the so-called tender sentiments. And in the same fash ion comes St. Patrick, long the Patron of all Ireland,* first among the list of 28 new saints added to the calendar of feast day:. Finders Is Keepers By Observing Law International News Service) Detroit, Mich.—Bougies Bruce j found a lady’s wrist watch and called on Assistant Corporation Counsel T. H. Goldstick to ascer tain the procedure by which he might claim the adornment. Goldstiek, after thumbing thru musty law books, dug up a pas- j sage entitled, “Lost Goods and Stray Animals,” adopted in 1857. His answer was: Within two days have notice of the find posted in two public places in the township. Within seven days have the township clerk make an entry of the finding. After one month advertise in the newspaper for six consecutive weeks. Have article appraised by a justice of peace and file the ap praisal with the township clerk. (Cost 56 cents.) , After a year the article may be claimed, provided the finder splits half with sajd township clerk. Failure to live up to all this, Goldstick found, would bring a j line or not less than $10 and not more than $50 or 90 days’ impris onment. Bruce, after hearing the terms, decided to turn the watch over to i the police and forget it. Paris.—Paris .couturiers amase 'one with their never failing In ' ventiveness in the mutter of en ; sembles. For spring there are almost as many ensembles as hours of the day and each and every one is as (harming as the other. There is the two-coat-one-i.'ress ensemble for the first chilly spring days when a wrap is so essential both indoors and out in public places. There is the one-coat-two-dror.s ensemhlc which is quite the re verse and which is going to sec a great deal of service after the really and truly spring weather gets into action and the violets begin to bloom. The ensemble wiji the revers ible coat which is really a two in one is being very much worn on the Riviera now. The coat can be worn either way about, thus get ting a chance without the formal-^ ity of going home or wearing two coats. A lovely gray ensemble consists of a long straight coot wi.h square pockets of gray velvet em broidered in silver and a gown of georgette phase both as to blouse and skirt, with a wide flat velvet belt of the (tray embroidered in silver. One of the most beautiful ensembles seen so far is of pale grayish green the long cou, and the jumper blouse of soft shim mering velvet with bands of sil ver braid in straight rows tho front and back and up the sleeves and a row of silver buttons on the fror.t of both. An elaborate type of ensemble consists of a long sleeveless coat of navy-blue taffeta, the bottom of which is finished with a band of scallops of powder blue georgette worn with a gowft of white crepe do chine which has ti row of tiny white buttons down the front, for everything has buttons this spring. One Paris designer even makes triple and quadruple ensembles so that you can go on shedding coats and dresses throughout a strenu ous social day and yet riot feel or look the least hit bulky v ben you start out with all of them on your back. Paris.—The map dross or geo- j graphical frock is the latest pro duct of the Paris fashion design ers. The idea of borrowing beauty from the school room was hit upon by one of the smartest designers who has spent a small fortune in collecting geographical maps arid observation. And it is no doubt hut that the inventors have been very happily inspired. Patterns and copies of sixteenth and seventeenth century maps with their quaint colors and de signs' come for all the summer silks and satins. Here and there are many-tarred mariner’s com pass or a delightful seafaring vessel are printed on the stuff which is made into delightful aft (moon and street frocks. Some are neatly bordered wkh map scales. Every country under the sun is pictured. The new geographical designs are also used on bathing costumes and even pyjamas. The Egyptian influence. so marked in many of the Worth evening gowns is not that of Oleo-; patra or of the wives of the Pha- j roahs, but of the Pharoahs them selves. The raiment of the most masculine of the heroes of old Egypt is responsible for the dron ing of the most feminine of the successful new dancing frock. It is curious to know that the popular com'binrjtion of blues known as the “Oxford-Cambridgc' which appears on several of the Worth sport models, also existed in ancient days op the Nile and may he seen as part of a girdle design in the British Museum. Rain-Making Aids Turkestan Cotton (By International News Service) Moscow.—Following successful experiments in the artificial pro duction of rainfall in the semi 'desert districts of Central Asia, the Meliorative Institute has or dered several sets of rain-making apparatus from the German in ventor. It has also obtained the right to manufacture the appara tus in the Soviet Union amj is seeking an appropriation to set up a factory near Leningrad. The Institute announce ith'at during the last dry season appli cation of the apparatus resulted in several copious rainfalls over cotton land in Turkestan. It reckons that one good rainfall pays for the cost of the instru ment with a good profit left over. The Meliorative Institute is seriously considering whether the rain-making apparatus in ques tion is not superior in results to irrigation canals, aside from the question of the much greater cost of the latter.
