Zion Signboard Is Upheld
by Circuit Judge.
Notice Barring R'tnnKrlUta V
Cltj Declared Impersonal.
'rom
ZIO.V, 111., Feb. 19. The signboard
still stands ln Zlon. It gives
what it calls a "perfectly plain notice"
that "persons coming In here to hold
meetings need not expect any cour
tesy from Zlon."
A verdict handed down by Judge
Edwards of tlie circuit court, Wauke
gan, dismisses a $700,000 Milt filed
against Wilbur Glenn V'ollva by
Thomas H. Nelson, Itobert Murdojrl,
Charles Warren and P. B. Johnson.
The suit grew out of the signboard
which Voliva erected on property con
trolled by him opposite the Grace '
Missionary church, of which Nelson
li pastor. Demurrers were sustained
by Judge Edwards, who contended
that the bulletin board ln question
contained no specific reference to any
of the parties who Instigated the
suit. The wording of the big s:an
follows:
"A perfectly plain notice. This city
was established by Zion peupie and
for Zlon people only. It Is the ex
clusive headquarters of the Christian
Catholic Apostolic church ln Zion,
and the private church home of its
officers and members.
"No gentleman, not to mention a
Christian, would break Into a church
settlement and attempt to hold nicety
ings, or to establish a counter-organization.
Those who do are noth
ing more nor less than religious
bums, tramps and vagabonds, with
less honor than a gang of highway
robbers and thugs. Get out of tills
community, if you have a drop of
honest blood, and go and establish
a settlement of your own.
"Persons coming in here to hold
meetings at the invitation of traitors,
porch-climhers. election thieves and
tally-sheet mutilators need not ex
pect any courtesy from Zion.
"An ecclesiastical goat-houso or
garbage dump has no right within
this settlement. The war Is on red
hot. ai d will be waged day and night
until every traitor gofm to his own
place.

Miss Orll Elsie Henthorne of New
York city has been tendered a call by
the executive council of the First
Congregational church to be the di
rector of its religious education work.
Miss Henthorne for several years was
a public febool teacher in lndla.Dp-
festive days, and appropriate parties
can be given them to fill almost every
need.
The tots will love a Valentine party.
with the cunning little invitations ln
the form of. a rebus that one young
mother made for her 6-year-old last
year. She bought old-fashioned lace
paper valentines and pasted plain
white paper over the verse on the
inside. On them she drew the invi
tation. Instead of the signature a tiny
snapshot of the little hostess was
pasted under the Invitation. (This
could be used for a grown-up party
every bit as well.)
The living room had been arranged
for the occasion by removing the rugs
and breakable bric-a-brac and plac-
ing low chairs and cushions about the
room. In the center was a strip of
green denim with three alleys drawn
cn it in white chalk. At the end of
the alleys, where the nine pins usu
ally stand, were little cut-out valen
tines, bought for 5 cents each. Light
rubber balls, with little comic valen
tine faces crudely painted on them
wre given, one to each child, and she
was allowed to roll her ball down the
alley and take for her own the valen
tine she knocked down. -
Then, as the party i means the re
freshments to most children, this wise
mother served hers at once. Every
one was told to bounce her ball as
long as possible, the one who missed
first taking her place at the foot of
the line. The one who kept It up the
longest led the line and they marched
into the dining room, sitting in the
same order around the table. In this
way there was no confusion In seat
ing them. The refreshments- and dec
orations were very simple. In the
center of the table stood a doll
dressed like the queen of hearts -with
a tray of little sponge cakes hanging
from her shoulders. At each place
was a napkin tied with red ribbon,
and a little holder made for the glass
by tying three pink cardboard hearts
together. There were bread-and-butter
sandwiches, cut heart-shape, of
course, milk sweetened and flavored
with chocolate syrup, ice cream and
the sponge cakes. The milk was set
Into tbe holders and straws were
served with It When each child took
her cake from the queen of heart's
tray she found a tiny charm in it.
These were bought at the 10-cent
store. This was hung about her neck
on the ribbon that had tied the nap
kins. '
Kindergarten games were played ;
for the rest of the afternoon.
This same mother entertained for
her older boy and girl who were both
in the grammar school, on Lincoln's
birthday.
She sent out the invitations on Lin
coln postcards. The time was from
7 till 9:30. Eight boys and eight girls
were invited. When they had all ar-i

George Washington, Franklin, Lin
coln, Lee, Roosevelt and Dewey for
the boys, and Prlscilla, Pocahontas,
Martha Custls, Betsy Ross, Bur bur a
Frietclile, Harriet. Beecher Stowe,
Clara Barton and Queen Victoria for
the girls. As can be seen, these
names were roughly divided into four
periods. There were four tables laid
ready for games. Over them In con
spicuous places were placards
1(120, 1776. 1861 and the 19th
written on them. Of course Pi
and John Alden matched up and went
to the table tagged 1620 and played
together, and so on. For tallies there
were little paper flags with plain blue
corner and the ones v ho had the
highest scores were given so many
silver stars to paste onto the field.
At the first table was a pile of date
written on strips of paper mid each
que was told to write down on the
back of his flag the events connected
with them. At the second table ucn
four postals of famous historical pic
tures cut into pieces, and each one
had to try to put one together before
he had to move on. The third game
was railed splitting rails. Straws
were piled up in the shape of a log
cabin and each one, In turn, tried to
take off as many rails as possible
with a bent hairpin without moving
the rest of them. When another one
than the one they were working on
moved the next player took his turn.
At the last table was a checkerboard
with little tin soldiers fastened to the
checkers. They played partners here,
each side trying to get the most men.
The first prize was a bronze bad
of Lincoln, used fur a paper weight,
and the booby was a little candy box
shaped like a book, filled with stuffed
dates.
The refreshments were served at
the tables. There were log-cabin sun
daes little strips made of cookie
dough sprinkled with sugar and
baked brown piled up on each plate
like a log cabin, with nabiscoa for the
roof. These were filled with loe
cream.
