PHILADELPHIA, July 1, 1776.— The Continental Congress met at 9 o'clock this morning with 51 delegates present. After disposing of routine business it took under consideration the resolutior of a complete political sepa n from Great Brit- ain, wh had heen presenied by Richard Henry Lee of Virginia on June 7. The session was held behind ( closed doors and no record of the pro- ceedings has been given out, but it is known that, after a long debate, vig-| orously conducted on both sides, the decisive vote was postponed until to- morrow, it h g appeared that the | resolution lacked the support of four | colenies, whereas unanimous aetion by the 13 delegations is sought hy the | patriot leaders. | The opposition came from New | York, Pennsyivania, Delaware and| South Carolina Pennsylvania and South Carolina were definitely In the | negative.

If with the food some fun is associ- ated, seme guessing contest, some novel way of distributing favors, etc., other mildly exciting factors are in- troduced. Table Decoration. The matter of first consideration is the color scheme for the table. It | must be red, white and blue, of course, but how shall these three colors be made to blerd without entailing more work than tke housewife cares to un- | dertake? let me make a few sug- | gestions. | The red ean be in the color of the | toods, for there are many that can be classed under such a heading. Most of them are a deep pink rather than a dectded red, but their value in the color scheme remains effectual. Meats, such as ham, tongue, rare roast beef or dried beef afford a selec- tion. Then there are other foods such as tomatoes, pimentos, beets, radishes, cherries, red plums, strawberries, raspberries, etc. The white may be the china, the napery or food. Of the latter there are plenty we all can call to mind, such as chicken, veal, potato, celery, white bread, white sauces, milk desserts or ices, etc. Serve a white (cream) dressing with a red salad, or perhaps a white sauce with a red meat preparation. Way of Serving Ices. An attractive and unique way of serving ice eream that makes it patri- otic in significance as well is to stick a straw as a flag pole in a slice of pistachlo representing a greensward and thrust the stick of a tiny flag down the straw or ‘“‘pol Tie two strands of heavy crochet silk about {the tip of the flag stick at the top and bring them down closs to the eensward and again tie to the “pole. These are to represent the ropes used to ralse the flag. Centerplece. The blue may have to be brought out in ribbon streamers, if no blue flowers are available. Another way is to have any favors done up in bl tissue paper. A centerplece of blue paper petals in rows, shaded from deep to the palest tones pasted to a round dish cover or overturned bowl mav hide the favors so wrapped. The company may be requested to guess the number of petals in the decorative blue flower, and a prize be awarded for the correct number or the one closest to it. preas to Caesar Rodney, at Dover, be- seeching his attendance tomorrow. If Rodney arrives in time, he and Mec- Kean can carry Delaware against Read. But that would mean only one more vote, with three still to be won over. John Adams of Massachusetts led the debate for the resolution, while John Dickinson was the chief speaker for the opposition. Their arguments were doubtless the same that have been heard repeatedly for several weeks. In general, the opponents are pleading for delay only, while urging continued armed opposition to the King's oppressive measures. Friends of the reselution say that nothing can be gained by waiting longer, but that much may he lost. Neither side helieves that a déclara- tion of independence would end the war. John Adams expressed the com- mon belief today when he said: “If you imagine that this declara- tion will ward off calamities from this country you are much mistaken. A bloody conflict we are destined to endure.” Letters read at the opening of t| morning session brought news of the plot against - Washington - and - his army at New York, and of the com- plete and hopeless collapse of the campaign in Canada. But none of this news has affected the movement for independence. BY THORNTON W. BURGESS ‘Where the Pigeons Went. Who sits in judgment must bewars Lest prejudics make him unfair. ~—0id Mother Nature. At first Farmer Brown's Boy, sit- ting on the end of the shelf on the face of the clif where was the home of Killer the Duck Hawk and Mrs. Killer, was so delighted with having reached the nesting place of these rare birds. and with seeing the baby Duck Hawks that he gave little thought to anything else. But presently he be-| gan to examine the surroundings to discover if possible what these baby Hawks had been fed. Almost the first thing he discovered was a WENT TO!” HE EXCLAIMED. pigeon feather. . He knew it instantly for a feather from one of his own pigeons. He found a few other pigeon feathers on the shelf beside the young. There were some blue jay feathers and some other feathers that he was not sure about. Climbing down, he looked on the ledge below the lttle immediately Willie Willis shelf where the nest was, and there he found more pigeon feathers. There was a dark scowl on the face of Farmer Brown's Boy. For a mo ment he was very angry. “So this is where my pigeons went to!" he ex- clajmed. ““Well, I guess you've eaten all the pigeons of mine that you ever will eat. Now that I am up here I'll fust put you young Killers out of the way and there will be no more killing of my pigeons to feed vou.” He climbed back up to the little shelf of rock where the thres young Duck Hawks were and once more sat down on the edge of the shelf, feet dangling off into space. Again re came to him that feeling that he was sitting on the edge of the world. And as he sat thers a change came over him. He forgot those young Hawks, to feed whom Killer had taken his pigeons. He began to dream. Of course, they were da dreams, but sometimes daydreams quit, wonderful as sleep dreams. Looking down from the edge of the world, it seemed to him that the world was his. He wondered what it would seem like to be able to float off inte space, looking down on all the Great World with the.freedom of the air, with the right to go and come as he pleased. It came over him that there is no freedom like the freedom of the eagles and the hawks: the freedom of great heights above the world. And as he dreamed he had a change of heart. Somehow he no longer thought of those pigeons o He begen to think of them much as Killer' the Duck Hawk mi have thought of them. They were for those who could get them.

Tomorrow's planetary aspects are adverse, and continue so throughout the di Only those duties that are either obligatory or customary should occupy your attention, and it will be found quite necessary to maintain poise, as there will be ever present the urge to do and say those things that should be left unsald. It is also quite probable that you will experi- ence a sense of despondency and self- dissatisfaction, with the resultant con- sclousness that all is in vain. In order to counteract such a disastrous atmosphere, resort must he had to recreation and the companionship of others and vou must draw on your reserve force of ermination and will power. Children born tomorrew will, accord- ing to the signs, pass physically un- scathed through the period of infancy. They, however, are slated to suffer from one or more serious allments in their ‘teens and at this stage of their existence they will need much watch- ful care. Their characters will be stubborn and they will be self-willed. This, although a lability {f unchecked, can be converted into a valuable asset by guidance and persuasion. They will be fond of study and painstaking. It tomorrow is your birthday, you are very original in your ideas. pos- sess an active mind and are blessed or cursed—it depends so much on one’s viewpoint-—with & tender con- sclence. Your originality and inven- tive faculties are your ehief advan- tages in life's struggle, more espe- cially as they are joined with felici- tous resourcefulness. You are quix- otically honest not only with others but with yourself and never overstep the bounds. Your ldea of honor is very extreme and at times Is at vari- ance with the usual accepted 'stand- ards. Your nature is both kind and affec- tionate and your home life, especially if mated with one born in May or August, should be fres from all those jangling disharmonies that wreck =o many family circles. Your friends— and vou have a number of loyal and sincere ones—seek you out on all oc. caslons to join them in their pleasures and pastimes and you are always con- genial and companionable.

At the left is a Canton chair of split bambon, known as an hourglass chair because of the peculiar of its base. These chairs are weather proof, make a good appearance and are extremely comfortable. The chair at the right and the table represent a European type of outdoor furniture. They are wand willow and lend themselves especially well to gay, painted effects.

EAR MISS DIX: My husband complains bitterly because he says I have not the proper faith in him. How can I have faith in him when that faith has been jolted time and time again? I am only @ poor human woman and I don’'t seem able to summon up the faith in him that he expects me to have. [} ROSE MARIE. Answer: A cynic has defined faith as the ability to belleve something that you know fen’t true. Kvidently your husband belongs to this school of thought and he expects you to be one of those gifted wives who can shut their eyes to all that they do not want to see and put an agreeable interpreta- tion upon every act of the men to whom they are married and make it square with what they would 1ike it to be. ¢ And, curiously enough, there are such women, I once knew one who said. that her faith in her husband was so great that even if she should see him do something wrong she would know that it was her lying eyes that bad deceived her and that ke really had not done it. But few of us have this faculty of belleving that we are beloved just because we desire to be loved and that we are the only ones tg our husbands just because we desire to monopolize them. This is a hard-boiled age, in which we look our gift horses in the mouths and in which we take very little for granted. Most wives hail from Missour] and have to be shown. And so, when their husbands cease to take any interest in holding their hand and pass up petting parties, and especially when their husbands display more interest in other women than they do in them, they grow suspicious and fail to show the]ll:;l}ov:lya fely trust which wandering husbands laud so loudly and do so.little to ve. It always seems to me that men and women expect impossible virtues in the partners of their bosoms. A husband will be unfaithful to his wife and then, because she finds it out or because he has an acute attack of conscience, he wiil ask her forgiveness and feel ill-used because she does not have the same implicit faith him that she had before he betrayed her. He does not seem to realize that faith is not an act of volition and that we can no more believe in a person we have found untrustworthy than we can make a broken staff whole again. And men and women expect their husbands and wives to love them whether they are lovable or not, whether they do anything to hold affection or not. The man who never shows his wife any tenderness or affection, who growls at her and curses her, who is stingy and mean to her, is surprised ‘when he finds out that she hates him. The woman who g and curses and whines and complains, who is lazy and extravagant and ver does a single thing to make her husband com- fortable or happy, considers herself a martyr when he ceases to care for hef and falls in love with another woman. Why? Goodness only knows, for it is certain that we cannot have our cake apd throw it away, too. We can only have faith in the husbands and wives who deserve faith and we can only love those who are lovable.

Because she felt utterly alone and there was no one to whom she cared to go for advice, Leila went to an employment agency. She had a hazy idea that for a certain fee an agency would find a job of xome kind for her. In novels, of course, when the heroine was left stranded, some- |thing Interesting alwavs happened There was, for instance, a rich old woman who wanted to travel abroad and needed a charming young travel- ing companion. Later the old wom- an dled and left the companion all her money. If onl: that could happen to her’ course, in real life such things never happened. In reading over the help wanted columns Leila had found rich old woman in search of a travel- ing companion. The Parmley Employment Agency was crowded when she arrived thers and she had to wait. Other girls wera sitting around the big room and most of them were very simply dressed. From time felt their envious eyes fixed upon her. It made her uncomfortable: she felt that she had no place among these workers who were probably all skilled at some trade.

She said good morning in a tone that was briskly efficient, and with a nod indicated a chair beside the desk Then she went on writing in a large | ledzer that was open hefore her. Leila had a chance to observe her closely. She was a large woman, with no claim to good looks. And yet there was something likable ahout her. something that invoked Leila's admiration.
