HONOR QUEENS MEMORY
IN HISTORIC OLD Church

Episcopal establishment in this coun-
| try. AS early as 100 the people of
Richmond County were clamoring for
a church of their own backed up by
the Rev. William Vesey, one of the
earliest rectors of Old Trinity.
Although the people Of Richmond
were then taxed for the maintenance
of minister, no religious leader had
| been assigned to them and the nearest
house of worship was in New York,
ten miles away across the waters of
the Upper Bay.
Finally DR.. Vesey prevailed in his
demands in behalf of neglected Rich
mond and the London Society for the
Propagation of the Gospel in Foreign
Parts sent missionary to Staten ISL
and. This was in 1902 and the first
missionary was the Rev. John Talbot,
He was succeeded in 1924 by the Rev.
Eneas Mackenzie, and five years later
the ground was broken for st. And
rew's church.
The original structure completed in
III, was a faithful reproduction of
the small English churches of the
time, square and unornamented, with
high pulpit, small marble chancel, and
plain straightforward pews.
Queen Anne contributed prayer
books, pulpit cover and rich commun-
ion service, consisting of two cups and
a paten, each inscribed with her name.
One Of these treasured cups was lost
during the Revolutionary War. but the
search was never abandoned and half
a century later the missing vessel was
recovered.
The growth of st. Andrews church
and parish was rapid from the start.
Cody men in turn filled its pulpit No
blot of dissension or of scandal ap-
pears upon its long and honorable rec
ord
Probably the most noted of its rec
tors was the Rev. David Moore,
born in 1887. and in charge of st. An
drews for forty-eight years. Under
his ministry the congregation doubled
in size, the old church was enlarged,
and the first organ was installed
For more than $50 years St. An
drew's suffered no loss save in the
matter of steeples. The first spire
was blown down in a great storm
early in the last century; its second
was destroyed by a bolt of lightning,
and its third steeple met the same
fate.
The browning disaster came in 1867
when the old church was totally de-
stroyed by fire. At the risk of their
lives a score of devoted parishioners,
led by their rector, the Rev. DR.. Kings
ton Goddard, rescued the old COM
munion table, the Queen Anne service
and the ancient font, chancel chairs,
Bible and prayer boks.
The passing of old st. Andrews re-
moved historic landmark linked with
some of the most stirring chapters in
American history. British and Ameri-
can soldiers battled stubbornly at it's
very doors. It's pews were turned into
beds for the wounded and the dead of
both armies were buried in its church
yard.
The present rector of st. Andrews
is the Rev. DR.. Charles S. Burch. who
is in charge of the present celebration.

EYES MADE EQUAL

If your eyes are not working togeth
er if one of them is unequal to its
task, you are under a great dsad-
vantage. You are what your eyes
make you and can never do more than
they permit. If they are not serving
you properly, everything you do will
be worse than it should be-though
seeming right to you! Think what
this means in this workaday world.
Reflect upon how easy a reputation
for skill may slip away from you, and
your earning capacity so be injured.
You can only be at your best while
both your eyes, are giving you their
utmost service. If they are not, you
need advice.

whether they need assistance or not,
and if they do, my record during the

WOULD PROVIDE FOR WIFE
Frank D. French Files Answer to
Divorce Complaint of Wife and
Denies Charges.

Frank d. French yesterday filed an an
swer to the divorce complaint Of his wife.
Mary D. French, in which he asserts that
he has been willing to provide home
for her ever since he came to Salt Lake
and will do so now if she will con-
sent.
The case promises 10 be one Of the most
interesting of its kind which will be
fought out in the district court this year,
both because of the prominence OF the
parties and the sensational allegations
made by the wife, who said that her hus-
band has spent his money in the society
of other women.
French says that this charge is not
true and that since he has been in Salt
Lake he has sent a considerable sum Of
money to his wife and has paid innu-
merable bills which she had contracted
in his name at her home near Denver
and also in Denver.
In support of his claim that he still
is willing TO live with his wife French
sets up the fact that he is now carry
ing $4,000 life insurance, payable to her.
and that 5000 of this amount was taken
out after January. 1906. when he came
to Salt Lake to engage in business and
she refused to follow him.
He SAYS that as manager of the Utah
Bill Posting company he has a salary of
500 a month and owns 499 shares of stock
in the concern. His debts amount at pres
ent to approximately s.. 800 a large
amount of which were contracted in pay
ing dressmaking, dry goods doctor and
druggist bills contracted by his wife since
their separation.
The case is scheduled to come up for
trial July I.
