SOCIETY NEWS Old-Fashioned Style Show Given At Church Dinner The third quarterly dinner of the Wesley Methodist church, held last Friday night, proved to be an evening of hilarious fun as an old fashioned style show was presented by members of the SOS circle who planned the program and acted as models. Costumes ranging from the 1870's to the present day were modelled by Mesiames Lee Nipp, Sally Clark, Nioma Miller, Lillian Wise, Dorothy Hadley, Margaret Balch, Florence Paxton and Margaret Elliott. The latter also acted as commentator and gave the history of each costume. A group of wedding dresses from 1898 to 1943 were also modelled. The 1943 wedding dress was worn by its owner, Mrs. Dorothy Brougher. Little Geraldine Paxton and Joellyn Wise modelled children's costumes while Clifford Elliott was resplendent in a strolling bowler and cut-away coat as "the gentleman of 1880". Mrs. Nioma Miller created much amusement as she modelled a bathing suit of the 1905 period. Mrs. Margaret Woodbury played favorite songs of each period represented by the models.

Kepner Elected National Head of Elks Lodge Wade H. Kepner, business civic leader of Wheeling, W. was today elected Grand ExaRuler of the Benevolent Productive Order of Elks, ceeding Dr. Robert S. Barrett, Alexandria, Va., as head of 700,000 members of the fraternal organization, in the United St. and territorial possessions. Complying with wartime restrictions on travel, the Elks year cancelled their regular scheduled 81st national con­ tion which was to have to place at this time in New York and Mr. Kepner was there elected by a special meeting tended by a smaller repres­ tive group of Elks Grand Lions members and officials.

It was all in an official bulletin of the Japanese Army found among the papers what did it mean to our Chinese allies and our own troops? It is significant that shortly after they obtained the information the Japs mounted a more offensive in China and set out to capture the specially constructed air field built by hand by the Chinese people for the heavy B-29s. Months of艰苦, back-breaking labor of the sands of Chinese workers were sapped by demolition in a heart-breathing security." In far-away Burma, early in 1944—long before the B-29 became front-page news at home—long before our own forces in China and in India were notified to expect this great superbomber—came news of its existence—uncomfortably accurate technical description—positive facts as to proposed bases...from the JAPS. It was all in an official bulletin of the Japanese Army, found among the papers captured in a Jap stronghold in Burma. This was not information obtained by the enemy through air reconnaissance or the capture of prisoners or official documents in combat—it was a leak of supersecret information right out of this country, transmitted directly to the High Command in Tokyo. What did Tokyo do with this information? What action did they take? What did it mean to our Chinese allies and our own troops? It is significant that shortly after they obtained the information the Japs mounted a more offensive in China and set out to capture the specially constructed air field built by hand by the Chinese people for the heavy B-29s. Months of laziness, back-breaking labor of the sands of Chinese workers were sapped by demolition in a heart-breaking few hours in the retreat before an onslaught of the attacking Japanese Stores of precious gasoline—partly and other scarce hard-to-get stores flown at great risk over the famous "Hump" were put to the torch. A rific set-back—an almost unenduring discouragement. We must keep our secrets. The way is to keep quiet.

Kepner elected National Head of Elks Lodge Today elected Grand Exalted Order of the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, succeeding Dr. Robert S. Barrett of Sandria, Va., as head of the 100 members of the fraternal organization in the United States territorial possessions. Implying with wartime relations on travel, the Elks this cancelled their regularly scheduled 81st national convention which was to have taken place at this time in New York. Mr. Kepner was therefore led by a special meeting attended by a smaller representative group of Elks Grand Lodge members and officials. The new grand exalted ruler of the Elks is vice-president of Security Trust company of selling.

He is a former commissioner of the Wheeling fire department, a former commissioner of playgrounds and public recreation in that city, and a past president of the Wheeling Kiwanis club. Other organizational activities include his being a director of the Wheeling YMCA and vice-president of the city's Automobile club.
