A magazine writer says the church
is In crying need OF business clergy
men" He explains that congregations
OF which he knows have grown from
almost nothing to great size because OF
the business ability of the pastors
chosen to lead them. He thinks the
influence of the church viii wane and
dwindle unless men fitted to deal with
administrative and financial problems
enter the ministry In large numbers.
We do not remember ever having seen
the commercial trend of the present
age better illustrated than in this ar
ticle. Probably the writer would con
slider a great poet, great scholar or a
great statesman failure unless his
success were attested by the number
of his disciples or the size OF his bank
account, Business ability is good

How odors Move from Place to Place

That odors move with the air, or diff
fuse through it like gases and do NOT
pass through 1t in waves, as sounds do
or in swiftly moving particles like the
radlum emanations, seems to be con-
clusiyely shown by recent experiments
on the propagation of scents through
small tubes. In such tubes there can
be no general motion of the air, and
the rate of travel of an od0r is eX-
tremely slow. That of ammonia took
over two hours to get through tube
yard and a half long. The presence
of the ammonia could be detected
chemically at about the same time
that it's smell was noticed. 1t seemed
to make little difference in the speed
whether the tube was held horizontal.
ly or vertically, or whether the odoI
moved up or down.-Success.

DR.. Hugh X. Walker Addresses Friday
Morning Club In Interest of
Humane Movement

"The dog pound should be placed in
the hands of the Society for the Pre-
Pvention of Cruelty to Animals, and
every women of this club should sign
a petition to help put 1t there" said DR..
Hugh K. Walker yesterday at meet
ing of the Friday Morning club.
1t was a meeting in the interest of
humane movements, and DR.. Walker
told stories of cruelty which he said he
knew had been practiced in Los An
geles. until the women before him shud-
dered.
Il want you to shudder," said he. "It
is time that we knew the conditions
and faced them"
DIR. Walker declared that he cannot
go into many audiences of women and
not feel the cruelty that some of them
are unconsciously accountable for. He

SUES EXPRESS
!. FOR 100000 LIBEL
CASE OF ATTORNEY JAMES IS
HEARD IN COURT
CONTINUED UNTIL TUESDAY
Sam Clover, Erstwhlle Editor Of the
Afternoon Paper, Testlfles That
He Was Responsible for
Article

The $4,000 libel suit of Attorney
Frank James against the Los Angeles
Express company was given hearing
before Judge Monroe in department six
Of the superior court yesterday. Only
a small portion of the evidence was
taken and the case was continued until
Tuesday.
The article for which the libel suit
was filed was published in the columns
of the Express during the month of
January and a short time before the
appointment Of the new police COM
mission.
According to the testimony of At
torney James the facts in the case are
as follows: Some time ago, when
Charles Elton was chief of police, some
trouble arose between Lou Simpkins, a
negro politician, and the police over
Slmpkins' place of business, which the
police alleged was not being conducted
in a proper manner.
An officer was stationed on guard and
Simpkins was alleged to have gone to
James and retained him as attorney
in a suit to have the officer removed.
AS g. retaining fee $1O0 was put up by
Simpkins. This money in some way
disappeared and the Express in it's ed
itorial is alleged by James to have m
timated that he took the money and
kept it, when he contended that as soon
as he found out the nature of the
trouble between Simpkins and the po-
lice he dropped the case, and never had
the money.
Attacked by Editorial
When a selection of the new police
commission was made last January Al
torney James name was mentioned as
an appointee. Then the Express
attacked him in an editorial and, choos-
case, said he was not a proper man
for the position. According to the testi-
mony of the attorney yesterday, upon
the appearance of the article he took it
down to Sam Glover, who at that time
was editor of the Express, and de-
manded a retraction. Further in the
testimony of the attorney he alleges
that Glover not only refused to pay
any attention to his demand for retrac-
ton, but even refused to hear Chief
Elton's statement in the case, and q
second editorial attacking Attorney
James was, according to the complaint,
the only action taken by the Express.
Sam Clover took the stand yesterday
and his testimony for the most part
was that he had been editor of the Ex-
press at that time and was therefore
responsible for the publication.
William Taylor, formerly connected
with the Express and who was detailed
to make the investigation of the Simp-
kins affair at the time of the occur
renee, was on the stand in the after .
noon.
