FOR THE CHILDREN
Crows and a Pingpong Ball.


The Times of India gives an anus
ing account of some crows and ping
pong ball The ball had been driven
out of Il window and sent some dis
lance out on the green. y q Giant crow
espied it and. taking it Tor ali egg.
swooped Gown upon it, seized it in lis
powerful bcak and bore it off in trI-
umph.
The crow having secured the prize,
the next thing for him TO do was to
break it open. SO lie flew from the
bamboo tree where he had alighted to
q stone post, which, he assumed, was
we'll adapted to this purpose. On this
he deposited the ball and began to peck
at it. Instead of breaking. the re-
silent ball hoped to the ground. The
crow retrieved it and again had peck
at it. with the same result.
When he had repeated this process
half dozen times, the crow reSorted TO
other tactics. He tackled the balloon
the ground. but with no better success.
The elusive thing would neither stay
put" nor break.
Suddenly happy thought seized
him. He took the egg in his beak
and flew to the branch of tree and
then let it fall. But it survived even
this shock intact.
This was too much for second crow
which had been attentively watching
the first bird. He made a swoOp at
the ball and missed it, for the first
crow was in hot pursuit. Then fol-
lowed a quarrel in midair between the
two birds, which resulted in the defeat
and departure Of one Of them. The
other attacked the egg" again.
At every peck the ball jumped away.
In vain the crow jumped upon it. Then
q third crow arrived on the scene and
gayly tackled the egg without pro-
test or interference from the other
bird. Before he had quite exhausted
his energy two more arrived and forth
with attacked the ball.
1t was q sort of game Of pingpong
they had. The elusive sphere bounded
and rebounded at every peck. 1t was
here, there and away again. Finally
they gave it up in disgust, flew to
tree and joined the other crows who
had had try at it. Then the matter
was thoroughly cawed over.

MINISTER'S PAY.
Presbyterian Board Thinks Eight
Hundred Year Small Enough.
General Assembly Urged to Adope fsIria
Rules Against All Secular Uses of the
Sabbath-AIarriage OF Divorced
Persons ODposed.

Los Angeles, Cal, May 23.-Re7. DR..
Coyle, of Denver, was chosen mod
orator of the Presbyterian assembly
on the second ballot.
The committee on divorce and re-
marriage recommended that all Pres
byterian ministers be enjoined from
marrying divorced persons Except as
such persons have been divorced upon
grounds and for causes recognized as
Scriptural.''
ance recommended the passage Of a
resolution expressing its emphatic
disapproyal .'of all secular uses of the
day, all games and sports, all social
functions, all travelling for pleasure,
all excursions by land or water, all
uses of this day as a day of con-
genience to do that which has been
left undone during the past week,
Or to promote the secular interests
of the coming week, both at home
and abroad"
The special committee on sustena-
ton reported to the general assem-
bly, that the total contributions to
sustenation and synodical home mis-
sions in the nine self-supporting syn
DDS in 1902 were S99,3S3 and the con-
tributions to the board of home mis-
sions were 1,026, 252. The committee
recommended that a minister's pay
be at least $500 a year.
The church last year sent out 142
missionaries to the foreign field. In
foreign lands the church has 127 sta
tions, 1,402 out-stations, 764 schools
with 1880 pupils, 1892 Sunday
school scholars and 81 hospitals in
which 29o,1O3 patients were treated
last year.
The board of church extension re-
ported that last year there were 26s
applications for aid in building new
churches. OF this number 22s were
aided in sums aggregating $194,209,
which is less than last year by % in
number. During the year 221 new
churches valued at $3.50. 9O2 were COM
pleted. At the present time the board
holds 1850 mortgages on church prop
erty, aggregating $2,6OO,OoO.
The Y. p. S. C. E. societies in the
Presbyterian church have member
ship of 100000. A consolidation of all
young peoples societies of the church
except the Sunday school is urged.
The number of vacant pulpits is
1872 and preachers without employ
ment 90 in excess of the vacant
churches. Only about $500 churches
of the total 7,744 contribute sufficient
funds for the whole of their support.
The report of the treasurer of the
twentieth century fund showed that
the contributions had been $12,039,-
O6S. the largest amount ever reported
by the church for single fund.
