the Methodist Episcopal church slnco
this right was granted last May by
the General Conference of (he Gen-
eral Conference of the church, Miss
M. Madel ne Southrad reported here
today. Miss Southard is president of!
" an association of women preachersj
In the United States and Canada that
represents 15 demonlnations. She is
director of evangel'sm of the Ep-
worih League.
"The first woman preacher to be
licensed in the Methodist Episcopal
church under this ruling," Miss
Southard said, "was Miss D. W Ilia j
Caffrey of Wenatchee, wash. She
came from a family of preachers and
at the age of nine wanted to preach
She had been acting as associate
pastor of the First Methodist church
at Wenatchee. Her pastor who was
at the General Conference telegraph-
ed word of its decision, and she was
licensed as a local preacher within
two hours.
"The same evening Miss Winni-
fred Willard was I censed by the
First Methodist Episcopal church of
Denver. At the timeishe was 2000
miles away in the east, but the en-
terprising Denverites called a meet-
ing as soon as they heard the news

IT TO HIVE
BASKET BALL LEAGUE
THIS SEAS01
During the paat few day a, the a tha-
letica of Drumright have been di -
cusslng the orgaaization of a city
basket ball league and it seems an
if the fans of Drumright are very
much in favor of the sport.
In fact the organization has already
been effected. The leagne la to co
sist of six teams and each team feu
have a representative to act on IW
advisory board, who is to have charg*
of the leagua The advisory boar*
met last Monday evening at the hlgH
school building aad elected its of -
ficers and discussed numerous things
that came before them regarding tho
rules and by laws of the organization*.
Five district teams have already been,
organized and the sixth plaeo is open
for any one who wishes to or ranlao
and come Into the leagua.
The object of the league is ft*
amusement and entertainment of th*
young people throagh tho winter mot-
tha. It has been decided that a small
admission fee should be made for each
game and the proceeds after expense*
are paid to be turned to the Higfc
Sihool for equipment of the gymnao-^
In in.
Basket Ball Is a good clean spot*/
and is something almost every modem-
town has for the benefit of their
young men. U is not only Interest-
ing bnt helps to develop the hoy*
and young men Into healthy robust
men. It haa been one of the leading
sports at the world for several yearn
and 1s growing rapidly. Some tlm
is will probably bo the leading spoit
of tho world, so lot's get behind It
and show onr neighboring towns anft
oommoHitlee what Drumright can te
with Basket Ball as aha has done
with many other ttttoga *Vttt thorn
over."
T GIVES me real uM"«n to
pledge my hearty support ta
the Fourth Roll Call of tho
American Ited Cross. While tha
opportunity for Its greatest serv-
ice comes dnring times of war,
and its achli vements daring the
late World War have bt*w un-
paralleled, yet there Is. and per-
haps there always wl^ be a vital
need for tha humanitarian work
which It renders.
"The present and former err*-
Ice man can never forget tha
Red Cross, not only for what U
did for them during the war,
hut for what It is doing now la
the Army Camps and I'eata and
wherever needed In assisting tha
ex-service men throughout tha
country. Tho valna af tha
American Red Croas aa a peace
time arganlsatloo can hardly fen
aver est I ma tad. and wo own It

NOTHING escapes tha ctees for
embroidery. Clothes for Indoors
and outdoors, for the house or street,
morning to evening—wraps, hata,
blouses, gowns—all are more or lass
touched up and toned tip with this
form of embellishment. Naturally de-
signers investigate every comer of the
world for Inspirations, and all periods.
They draw upon Japan, China, Egypt,
Persia, and other sources for the su-
perb patterns and motifs they need
and for knowledge of their use of col-
or. They appropriate and adapt to
suit tl/emselves. The supply of ideas
has been opulent. It seems. The vari-
ety of embroideries, based upon these
borrowed designs^ is inexhaustible.
Here In the picture is a dinner
dress of a rich material, made richer
by superb embroidery. It is a velvet
dress with silk used in the scroll and
floral figures that cover it from top
to bottom. It has a round neck and
Its short sleeves are an afterglow of
the short-sleeved mode which fulled
to become a vogue In this country but
found many admirers when used In
dinner gowns. It l a Ions, modified
princess with the skirt cut in wide
scallops at the bottom of front and
back panels. These panels are Joined
to the knee and from there a gore
Is Inserted to furnish the required
width. A very long sash of crepe-de-
chine edged with fringe winds-about
the waist and Is tied at the left side,
It seems like painting the Illy to
embroider velvet, and satin or velours
as a foundation for a gown of thla
kind will not suffer by comparison
with the original. Among the models
sre wonderful satin gowns covered
with bends or embroidered figures, and
In one of them the designer has sue-
reeded in slmulstftig baby lamb by
means of embroidery on hlack satin.
The richness of this id«a is easy to
Imagine, and It exploits embroidery in
still another way.

Among some savage races souls are

very bad luck to cut down an old tree.
The first fruit of any tree should be
gathered Into n sack and some left on
the tree so that it will bear well ever
after.
A few leaves trembling on a treo
when cvrry other part of the tree Is
still forebodes bad luck to thn ob-
server.
It used to bo a tradition In some
communities to plant a tree at tho
birth of a child, and as tho tree grew
so grew the child.
