she stated.

Major L. Powers of the Boston
Artillery, expressed congratulations
from Major-General Brewster. and
commended the spirit of the D. A.
R. in Defense Day Activities. He
praised Connecticut's showing in the
recent mobilization, and said that
Governor Trumbull had attracted
country-wide attention to Connecti-
cut for the efficient showing recent-
ly in the assemblsnce of the Na-
tional Guard.

The American Band rendered a
medley of popular airs which was
greatly enjoyed. The members gave
thcir services for the occasion.

Frederick L. Lamson delivered the
main address of the day. The full
contents of this address was given
in Saturday‘s issue of The Evening
Sentinel. Mr. Lamson was well re-
ceived and drew much applause in
his high praises of D. A. R.

"The Ship of State" was given by
the Mozart chorus.

Miss Alice Jones.
granddaughter of Alexander J.
Rummler. unveiled the historic sign
in front of the Town Hall. Miss
Mary Mathews delivered the history

uf it. Her address follows:
“The sign which was unveiled
came into the possession of the

Norwalk Chapter of the Daughters
of the American Revolution about a
year ago. Since the procuring of
this sign a committee has been
formed to study colonial signs. This
particular sign they found, was of
the period between 1710 and 1790.

“through the skilled workman-
ship of Mr. Albert Malkin the low—
er part was restored. Through the
artistic ability of Mr. Alexander
Rummler the colors were brought
out. The iron work was the result
of the ingenuity of Mr. William Ma-
thews. After its restoration and the
value of the antique became ap-
parent we had two very flattering
offers for it. one from an antique
dealer .the other from a hat manu-
facturing concern. However. the
idea of sale was too short lived to be
even considered. Through the. gen-
erosity of Mr. Mayehoff who felt as
we did that so valuable a. possession
should not. leave Norwaik, we felt
better able to keep it and in fact
were able to hang it here as you
see it todem

“The sign of which we are so
justly proud hung long before and
during the Revolutionary times
over the door of the hat shop be-
longing to Ebenezer Church. Tile
sign itself is a silent proof of this
fact because close inspection reveals
a bullet hole made by I. bullet of a
Tory.

was born January 10. 1719 in Hart-
ford and died in 1799. He came to
Norwslk at about the yegr '10 or '18.
Upon arriving here he studied the
hat trade at a. hat shop on the green.
In 1745 he bought the land border-
ing on the Wpstport road and North
Brook which borders the road. He
built at the eastern end. on the Post
road and over the brook his home
and shop from which hung the
sign. One may on going to Welt-
port from Norwslk. see the lite on
the left side of the road at. the cor-
ncr of the first road to the left after
leaving the Children’s Home. Even
the lilies which were in the original
garden may still be seen. ‘

"1715 appeared to have been a
red letter year for Mr. Church. In
that year besides buying land. build-
ing a house. setting up I. business.
he married a Norwalk girl. Hie shop
was one of the few houses which
escaped being burned by the British
in 1779. His premises were let on
fire. but the soldiers were in too
much of a hurry to see if their fire
setting was efficiently done and left
the scene. Thus the Church family
were able to save their home.

“Records of Ebenezer Church are
excedingly scant but we were for-
tunate in that it great great grand-
son of his. Mr. George Quintard. al-
lowed us to copy his data from an
old account book of Ebenezer
Church. This book is 15 inches
long by 6 1-2 wide. is of old English
linen paper and is bound in sheep-
skin. The first entry is in 1756.

"The kind of hats which he mlde
and sold were beaver at 38 sniilings.
wool at 6 shillings lad felt at 6
shillings. From this shop his hats
were sent by messenger. stage or
any other means at his disposal to
Long Island. up the Hudson and all
of Western Connecticut. He was an
owner of much land. had slaves. and
must have had a good number of
cattle and sheep because we find
them mentioned in the sales. He
was a very prominent member of
old St. I‘aul's and he provided men
times and again to do work on the
church both inside and outside. We
find mentioned credits to various
men for work on "my pew.” on the
gallery, and to the spire of the
church. For example an entry for
June. 1762 we find to Wm. Mott
credit by work done at' the galleries
at the church 13 12 shillings. He
will a man who expected everyone
to do his work well and evidently
knew when it was so done for we
note in one place that he gives a
man credit “for doing nothing to u
saw—2 shillings." He was a. good

mighty proud.

“Besides hats he sold such articles
as pork. shoes. paper pins. tobacker
and pointers (as he spells them).

making still and warm (the colonial
equivalent of moon-shine).

"It seems in closing that Ebenezer
Church would be most proud if be
but knew that this sign which pro-
bably meant his business and liveli-
hood'to him. should come into the
possession of such a society. for
surely no other organization of to-
day is better able to appreciate its
worth. or no other has a better right
to take care and preserve such a
monument of colonial times than the
society of the Daughters of the
American Revolution."

After the history of the sign had
been given the singing of the
Star Spangled Banner took place.
Mrs. Minerva Dav-rs then presented
the D. A. Rawith a flag and flag
pole on behalf of Robert Way. Her
very appropriate speech follows:

"Speaking for the donors. Robert
F. Way and family. I present to the
Norwalk Chapter, Daughters of the
American Revolution. this flag and
flag pole. It bears the inscription
‘In Memory of Kate E. Way—Be-
gcnt 19174920!

"Speaking for myself and many
others. I add this tribute. In the
near future strangers reading “the
inscription or in the distant future
'our own successors may ask the
question. ‘Who was she?’ We who
knew her. will always keep her

to us.

"To the donors there will always
linger the recollections of the wife
and mother who from the hearth-
stone gave to all the warmth. cour-
age and hope which sprang from a
wealth of affection.

“To her hosts of friends with

tact. including the many organiza-
tions of which she was a member.

was calm and deliberate and for

SILVER LACE, FLOWERS MAKE EFFECTIVE TRIMMING

 

 

By MME. LISBETH
Silver lace is one of the most fav-
ored fabrics for evening frocks. It is
used for whole skirts and frocks as
well as for trimmings and sometimes
embroidery is introduced on the lace
which seems a little like "painting

the lily." it seems to me. For in-
stance. one youthful dance. frock
had a bodice of blue chiffon and a
skirt of the silver lace on which
fuchsia shades were combined with
green leaves in a colorful harmony.
A yoke of the lace was cut in cir-
cular formation in the front of the
bodice extending in V fashion to the
back. '

It is silver lace in a new polka
dot motif that makes a great part
of the elaborate negligee in the cen-

 

ter of my'illustratlou. The lace forms
the bodice and the upper part. of
the wide. trailing sleeves. with ma.
roou velvet forming the rest of the
sleeves with a lace border sugges-
tive of a formal court ’traln. It is
worn by Helena D'Algy. screen play.
er.

On the left Marie Provost. another
film stul', wears a French evening
frock. It is a combination of white
satin and chiffon. a bouffant model
with th» close fitting bodice ending
at an almost normal waistline and
the round neck and wide armholes
outlined with forgot-me-note. The
full skirt is mostly chiffon but pan-
els of the satin which loop under
the hem are also outlined with the
tiny flowers. -

 

 

 

Another flower trimmed model
(right) comprises an underslip. of
maize satin. with overskirt and
drapes of pansy chiffon lavishly em-
broidered in dots. flowers and vines.
The design is from Paris.

Slippers for evening wear are fre-
quently not the least interesting part
of a costume. Satin slippers to match
a gown are usually plain or else
have heels of a contrasting color.
Slippers of metallic cloth very often
show intricate applique-s of gilt or
silver kid. frequently in scroll de-
sign. Sllver appliques are often used
on gold slippers and vice versa.
Large flowers centered by brilliants
may match the flower trimming on
a dress and occasionally an inset
pattern of brilliants is used.

EAST NORWALK

GREAT CROWDS
FLOCK TO BEACH
OVER WEEK-END

The Fourth and Sunday saw
thousands of cars and balhers at
Calf Pasture Beach. The machineI
were parked four deep along the
beach at night when the Life Guards
set off the fire—works displayed for
the coucessiouaires. Early in the
day the guards forsook work on their
new station and used all their ef.
forts in getting the two floute prop—
erly placed for the heavy week-end
rush. The display was set off after
nine-thirty. and compared favorably
with those at Compo beach and Bo.
ton Point park. As a special attrac-
tion. the Life Guards topped off a
strenuous day of patrolling the
beach by staging a sham battle in
conocs tor the benefit of onlookers.
The four canoes were placed about
fifty feet apart. and roman-candles
were the. weapons. Nobody was hurt.
but surprising marksmanship was
uncovered in the course of the scrim.
mage.

Sunday record crowds took to the
water. due to the high tide in the
morning and the warm weather. The
two floats were in constant demand.
and their arrangement now is very
satisfactory, since the float with the
spring-board is far enough out to
prevent weak swimmers from clut-
tering it up. and thus allows plenty
of room for those who dive.

The substantial parallel bars con-
structed by Michael Riordan between
the new Life Guard station and the
pavilion are becoming very popular.
There are two low bars and oxib
high one. and the‘variety or gym-
nasticI originated on them is noth-
ing short of marvelous.
