Rev. A. LL. Lathem, pastor of the
Third Presbyterian church in Chester,
criticised beauty pageants In a8 ser
mon on “Immodesty srcd Immortality
Always Go Together.” He expressed
the fear that there +ill be a return
to the Spartan age of 3000 years ago,
when maldens apppeared “in the man-
ner in which they had been bom.” Dr
Lathem expressed a similar fear with
regard to Halloween parades, which
he sald are becoming more distasteful
each year. Present day bathing sults
alsa come in for severe criticism, the
pastor's text being “The woman shall
not wear that which pertaineth unto
a man: neither shall 8 man put on a
woman's garment, for all that do so
are an sbomination to the Lord”
