FROVICS
1925,
When the Rev. Thomas Clark, of an exclusive Presbyterian Church in Washington, witnessed a rehearsal of the "Minstrel Frolics of 1928," which was to be presented in the community hall of the church, he. promptly made known his objection to fully grown young women returning to "mudpie days, particularly if their costumes were nothing more than oversized rompers, beneath which pink kneca bared themselves. His action has caused naplit among the members of the church, one faction holding that the girls should wear stockings, while the other brands him as too "puritanica)."

HARBOR
OF
In spite of the fact that the American Arbitrary Commission, select- ed to mediate the boundary discussion between the South American provinces of Tuena and Aries, has rändered a decision, neither Chile nor Fern seem inclined to accept in oto the order for a plebiscite under the supervision of General Pershing. The harbour and city of Arica are the chief prizes in the dispute, as Arica is the best harbour for hundreds of miles along the coast, and is in a position to command great shipping business, The dispute over Tacne and Arica dates back to 1884. Photo shows the famous rocks, "El Moro," in Arica's harbour. When this fortification was captured in 1884 by the Chileans, the Peruvian general, rather than surrender, rode his horse from off the top of the rock and dashed to death in the Ree below.

WILDA DENNETH
Wilda Bennett, famous musical comedy actress, announced that she had been "completely vindicated" when she was informed that.
