hood, and that infusion of new life.
which come in the wake Of the ac-
ceptance of the Gospel.
The man who could say, echoing in
words the message of his life, Now
let me burn out for God" is a char
acter worthy of study. That man was
Henry Martyr.
The outstanding events of Henry
Martyrs life are summarized in the
following paragraphs, by Amos r.
Wells:
Henry Martin died in the thirty-second
year of his life, but few missionaries
have produced a more profound influ-
ence upon the world.
He was born at Truro, Cornwall, Feb
ruary Is, 1871. He went to Cambridge,
and became distinguished scholar
famous especially for his Latin and
mathematics. He was to become one
of the most notable of missionary
translators.
The university preacher converted
him, and turned him toward missions
by praising Carey. He was also deep
ly moved by reading the life of that
young American whose career was not
unlike his own,-David Brainerd.
Becoming a minister of the Church
of England, Martyr was compelled by
financial stringencies to take a chap
laincy unler the East India company,
that he might pursue his missionary
labors and at the same time support a
sister. He reached Calcutta in May,
1906, and labored first at Dinapore
and then at Cawnpore, two places
northwest of Calcutta, on the Ganges.
The fierce heat and his feeble body
conspired to produce fevers and faint
ings, but he desired rather to wear
out for God than to rust out" His la
bors were severe,-outdoor preaching to

ing before the heather amidst groans,
hissings, curses, blasphemies, and
threatenings," the building of a church
at Cawnpore, and especially transla-
tions of the New Testament into IN
dustani and Hindi. He learned Persian,
and translated the New Testament into
that language also.
To recover his health by a sea voy-
age he went to Persia in 1911. There he
labored among the Mohammedans, and
presented to the Shah a splendidly
bound copy of his Persian New Testa-
ment.
Again sickness compelled a removal.

Crocker National Bank Will
Perform Service Gratis

The Crocker national bank was rec
ommended by the supervisors public
utilities committee yesterday to act as
the city's fiscal agent in making the
New York payments on the municipal
bonds. The agency will be handled
by the bank for the city without ex-
pense, the interest coupons being
dashed by the Crocker Institution s
New York representative without any
charge save the ordinary exchange
when that is in favor of the eastern
center.
Chairman Giannini and the members
of the committee expressed their ap-
probation of the offer, which came
from William Crocker, who was the
highest bidder upon the recent issues
save the successful firm of Rollins &;
Harris.
''Crocker magnanimously withdrew
from the field" said Dr. Giannini yes
terday. t'and made no protest against
the city's award. This friendly action,
based on a desire to further the city's
welfare he has supplemented with the
handsome offer that the Crocker ma
tional bank will acr as the city's fiscal
agent without compensation. The offer
means the saving Of $4,000 to $4,000 to

POLY HIGHS FATE
HANGS IN BALANCE
Supervisors and the Education
Board WrangIe Over Funds
for New School

The fate of the new Polytechnic high
school hangs in the balance. There
is tangle in the arrangements of the
board of education and the board OF
supervisors as to where the money to
build the proposed structure is coming
from. The board of education has un-
derstood that the Polytechnic high
school was to be provided for in the
November bond election. The super
visors declare that this is not their
understanding of the arrangement. In
the diversity of opinion, and the possi-
bic failure to get the Polytechnic high
school matter placed before the cleo
tors in November, the plans for build
ing a technical school costing $75O,OOO
seem to be on the verge Of going awry.
In the last bond issue 100000 was
voted for three high schools, the Low
ell, the girls high and the Polytechnic.
Newton G. Tharp, the city architect,
notified. the board of education that
the plans prepared for the three high
schools would take great deal more
money than that appropriated. He fig
ured the Lowell and girls high to cost
each s450,oO0 and the Polytechnic
$3.50, ,000
Tie board Of education recommended
to the board of supervisors last May
that the Polytechnic be taken from the
list and be put in the November bond
issue as special appropriation. Presi-
dent Boyle said yesterday that, he be-
lieved that this plan had been ac-
quiesced in by the supervisors. Now
comes the information. however, that
the Polytechnic school is not to be
voted for in November.
The board of education will wait on
the supervisors next Monday to clarity
the situation and to see If it is not yet
possible to place the Polytechnic high
school among the Improvements to be
voted for IN the bond issue.
If no more money is Forthcoming.
three high schools, costing 100000
each, will probably be erected.

The question arose during the exam
