f rriE ARIZONA REPUBLICAN. FRIDAY MORNING, MAY 28, 1920 PAGE NINE ? 1 1 L 1 i 2 I - V x i V SILK GOWN CF 1 YEARS Si PROVES INTERESTING EXHIBIT One of the most interesting articles at the recent library loan exhibition was a silk sown 100 years old loaned by Mrs. Harry Diehl. Many questions were asked about it. Au eighth grade TSirl said: "Where did the silk come from?" We started to say Japan, then realized that Japan was not opened to the rest of the world until some years after the gown was made. We hear of siik being raised in Geor gia in 1732 under special protection of the colonial and later the British gov ernment. It was also rained in the Carolinasi, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, California in the latter state in 1860- 75. Hut for some reason the raisins of silk in this country never has pros- i pered. j So where did the silk in this old gown come from? Possibly from home culture, but more likely from France or Spain. It Is rather a sad common- j tary on the silks of today when we j realize that this old silk gown, woven j 100 years a so, and which has Deen in this dry climate for a long time, does not show a sign of a slit or other wear. Some visitors were rather surprised to fee hooks and eyes-on the gown. The owner says the entire dress is ex actly as it was when made as part of a wedding trousseau in tho East these hundred years ago. We suppose thorns were the earliest thing used to fasten our ancestors' garments together. The library museum will be open to the public again on Friday, June 4, dur ing regular library hours. The shelves will be full of interesting articles. Show cases to assist in exhibiting these interesting relics are greatly needed. Cases of twins are said to occur once, in every 69 births. ies' Shoes Because of the late delivery from our manu facturers and the slow freight transporta tion facilities, we find ourselves consider ably overstocked for this time of year with Vici Kid, Patent Leather, Tan, Canvas and White Kid.

DVEOTIST SPEAKER MAKES SATAN TOPIC OF STRUG ADDRESS "Satan preached the first sermon on the immortality of the soul that was ever delivered," said Elder A. R. San born, president of the Arizona confer ence, S. D. A., in a sermon last night at the cam)) ground at Tenth street ami McDowell road. Describing Satan and his work, Mr. Sanborn said: "Our text informs us that Satan was once a beautiful angel in heaven, but through pride rebelled against Christ and had to be cast out. "He has delighted to instigate wars ever since, and now he knows his time Is short and he redoubles his efforts to destroy men to deceive them. "One of his favorite deceptions is to make, men believe in a millenium this side of Christ's return. He would have us believe the world is getting better, while God says, 'Evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse.' "The devil has always contradicted God. as in Eden, when God said to Adam, 'In the day thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely, die,' and Satan said. 'Thou shalt not surely die." It was he that taught men to believe they are Immortal." Speaking of the binding. of Satan a thousand years, the speaker continued, "Satan is to be bound a thousand years here - in this world. Christ will first come and translate the righteous living and raise the righteous rtead. ' taking them all to heaven, whore thny will reign with Christ in judgment for a millenium. "Here Satan gets his thousand-year vacation, going to find fro throughout the earth witnessing tho destruction his career has wrought. "A thousand years later the New Jerusalem will descend out of heaven and rest upon a purified valley on the earth, and at that time the wicked will be raised to life and Satan will once more endeavor to deceive thorn. will urge that great host of men who have died in ail asos to unite in a siege against th Holy City, endeavor ing to capture it. His forces will be organized fully, and when victory seems about to be theirs fire will come down from God out of heaven and de vour them. "Sudden and sad the end of a notable career when Satan, and all his follow ers, are destroyed, the earth ptirifioiT by the Fame fires, and then, Oh. crowning scenes God's everlasting kingdom becomes an eternal reality t His faithful ones." Elder Stevens, from Glendale. Cal., will speak tonight on "The Christian Sabbath."
