BAPTIST AFFAIR GREAT SUCCESS
Supper, Followed by Lecture, Attracts
Manv PEOPLE Wednesday Might.


The first of a series of social affairs.
given Wednesday night under the di-
rection of the Ladies Aid society of
success. and if 1t is any indication of
the interest to be evnced. the succeed
ing gatherings. the ultimate success Of
the undertaking is already assured.
Beginning at $50 the ladies served
a delicious dinner in the basement
of the church. covers being laid for
$50. Following the dinner, at 1:30,
was the lecture by Rev. James MCGEE.
on Madame Roland, one of the central
figures in the stirring and bloody
scenes of the French revolution.
Mr. McGee's lecture was very pleas
ing indeed, and it was the first time
his audience had heard him in the role
of q platform entertainer. In the Sc
lection of the subject he quite natur-
ally went into a great deal of the his
tory Of the most bloody conflict of
modern times, and painted his heroine
as one of the leading figures in the
ranks of the republicans and Girond-
lists. He traced the girlhood of Manon
Jeanne Philipon. and drew lessons
the development of her career Her
marriage to Roland de la Platierc.
poor. but the man she loved. who later
became a leader of the Girondists, was
also touched upon. Her intrigues with
the ministers of state. who carried out
the very ideas and will of the beautiful
woman. gave the audience an idea of
the woman's power. Thru the few brief
years of her power he followed her
to her arrest. incarceration. and to the
guillotine. where she paid the penalty
for her ideas of what she knew to be
for the good of France.
In closing Mr. MCGEE drew lessons
from the life of his heroine, and in a
strong anti-climax brought out the
cause of the failure of this great
life. He attributed all TO the fact
that Nine. Roland was an ATHEIST. an
unbeliever in supreme being, and
then compared her with other notable
personages who, beyond their own
powers. recognized divine hand. His
predominating thought was that, no
matter how gifted naturally, or how
powerful one may be, that power avails
nothing without the belief in and the
help of an Almighty Being.

rho orlain of 0Parson.T

"Parson" is from the Latin 'per, soma" person and the parson is the persona eccleslac, or representative, of the church. The forms parson and person bear the same relation to each other as clark and clerk. From being pronounced parson the word has come to be so written. Blackstone in his "Commentaries" says:
 He is called 'parson' .persona) be- cause by his person the church, which is an invisible body, is represented, and he is himself a body corporate in order to protect and defend the rights of the church which he represents"
 'To parse a sentence" is to resolve 1t into its grammatical parts, and the verb is declared to have arisen from the Interrogation "ParsT - that iS, "ouae pars orationisT' CWhat part of speechD used by scho6lmasters.

 "No rot at all, for 1t is a fact Q dreadful fact" said the physician, "that the rich live, on the average, twenty-five years longer than the poor. Born rich, you are assured of quarter century more life than would be your allotment were you born poor. Wealth buys you all that. And yet they say that there is nothing In mon- ey. Why, man, money buys life"

 Several vessels of the first dotilla of submarines were ordered to attack warships returning to port from the maneuyers.

 without moments warning a great black shape plotted the water in front of the Souhleur. It was the Bo- nlte, travelling at a rapid rate straight toward the Soufleur.
 Lieutenant Roblllot, realizing the danger in a flash. shouted an order to sink farther down. hoping to allow the Bonlte to pass overhead But 1t was too late. The Bonite crashed with terrific force into the Souffieur. which was struck on the port side and had the plungIng rudder broken, so that 1t was impossible to stop the descent
 ''Next the Bonite scraped along the top of the Souttieur, destroying the periscope and coming tower. The in- ner hatches were fortunately closed, or the Soufieur would have sunk ike a stone in forty fathoms. We were all hurled against the sides of the Souf- fieur by the shock, and some of us were injured.
