OF SOUTHERN SOCIETIES
PLAN FOR CENTRAL BODY IN
NATIONAL CAPITAL.
Question Discussed at Meeting OF
Mississippi Society-other Or
carnations Invited to Aid.

THE Approaching Victory of the South
was the subject G. Grosvenor Dave, man
aging director Of the Southern CONNER
cial Congress, discussed at the first fall
meeting of the Mississippi Society In
Pythian Temple last night.
Cant. Fred Beall outlined a plan for a
great southern society in the National
Capital. one which will have prestige and
bring the southerners here into a large
central body The suggestion met with
instant favor. and decision was reached
to appoint a committee to bring the mat
ter to the attention Of other southern
state societies in this city as well as other
prominent southerners who are not afnii-
ated with any Of the state organizations.
Question Long Considered.
The idea to establish a central southern
society here, it is understood. has been
long considered by southerners in Wash
ington, and it is believed something def
mite will be done In the matter soon. With
the appointing of the special committee Of
the Mississippi Society in the near future
the matter will be brought to the atten-
ton Of the other state societies at once
and the advisability Of inaugurating the
work of the proposed organization will be
given more careful attention.
The Southern Commercial Congress. with
it's delegates from every part of the
southland. will meet at the New Willard
December 6 and Z. and at the close of his
address last night Mr.. Dave said a gen.
eral invitation Is extended to the south
erners Of the Capital city to attend the
session. At the closing session the even
ing of December an informal discussion
will be held concerning the proposed new
central society for this city.

visiting the schools to talk to the chill
dren from the fifth to the eighth grades
on preventive measures against tubercu-
losis. This work was carried on as an
experiment last May and June, with
enough success to make possible its con-

In the last two weeks Miss Anderson
has met sixty-two classes in the tenth
and eleventh divisions, with a total en-
rollment of 2.11O children.
In speaking to the children a few
simple facts on the value of cleanliness,
fresh air and proper food are impressed
on their minds. She aims to teach the
children how to keep themselves free
from the tuberculosis germ. for it is
we'll known that, although comparatively
few children are actively tuberculous,
many are predisposed to the disease and
will provide fertile field on reaching

earlier years. The children will be ask

learned in the school talks.
This is only one phase Of the work of
the Association for the Prevention of

Church Interdependence.
From the Living Church.

From the Living Church.
We believe the Bishop Of Massachusetts
has acted wisely in securing the frank in
terchange Of opinion with the Archbishop
of Canterbury concerning the functions of
the central consultative body which has
been created by the Lambeth conference
and upon which the American bishops
were empowered to select four members.
The day Of absolute independence Of
nations and of churches Is past The Con
cert Of powers and other International
devices have succeeded to it. 'Interde-
pendence' of each upon all Is we'll recog-
nized today. National churches may we'll
welcome a like system Of cooperation.
We can think of many problems that
might well be committed-not for deter
central consultative body. Questions re-
contested orders are among these. The
Australian church was probably saved
from serious compromise in it's negotia-
tons with Presbyterians by the oppor-
tunity Of reference to the Lambeth con-
ference. Most of the questions relating to
phases Of church unity might better be
sifted. in the first instance, by a body
representative OF the whole Anglican COM
muniOn.
We commend the Bishop Of Massachu-
sets for his caution, In view of some
rather provincial fears that have been ex-
pressed among certain American church.
men. but we believe American participa-
ton. under proper safeguards, In the
Lambeth consultative body to be quite
desirable.

FRENCH PREMIER ISSUES Def
INDIRECTLY REPLIES TO ADJ
DRESS OF THE POPE.
Country Will Never Permit Destruc-
ton Of Public School System.
Warns Republicans.

PARIS, November 20.-Premier BRAND
in the chamber Of deputies today, indi-
rectly replied to the address Of the pope,
made Thursday last before body OF
French pilgrims, in which the pope de-
clared that France was making war
against the church, with the aim of un-
dermining the basis of Christianity.
The premier warned the republicans to
stand together and not to be alarmed by
the strife and disorder the church was at
tempting to stir up in the face of the
coming elections.
He declared that similar tactics had
been tried before. and the result would
be the same now.
1.-The country" said M. BRAND, will
never permit the destruction of the public
school system. which is the proudest
work of the republic
Persecution Purely Imaginary.
The premier characterized the Catholic
appeals as violent, passionate and I'M
just" intimating that the government
possessed documents, and that it could, If
it so desired, make embarrassing revela-
lions regarding conditions in the confess
sional schools.
Turning to the Catholics, he declared
that the persecution of which they COM
planned was purely imaginary. He defied
them to indicate, in single particular,
wherein their liberty had been abridged.
Clergy Enjoys Fullest Liberty.
You enjoy the fullest liberty Of belief
and worship he said, land the clergy
never had freer exercise Of their prerog-
atives. You know very we'll that the sep
aration act has given to the clergy lib
erty such as they never enjoyed before"
The Temps advises the government to
ignore the provocation and to continue
the liberal and moderate policy which it
has pursued since the separation between
church and state, and which, says the
Temps, has already produced the best
results.

Starting a Rubber Plant.

Rubber plants are usually started by
method known as messing. cut is
made in a young branch and a wedge
put in it to keep the surfaces apart. A
bunch of the sphagnum moss Is then fas-
tened around the stem over the cut, the
moss being kept wet. AS soon as the
young roots appear on the outside Of the
moss the young branch is cut off and
potted up. Ficus elastica, the rubber
plant of our houses, must produce seed
in It's home, tropical Asia, but it does
ton in greenhouses to do SO often.

one hand he can do work that would
otherwise take two. or he can wear q

is that the fruit is not bruised by drop

those that fall from being overripe.
