Mr.. Editor I'll wish to express
my commentator OF your outspoken
editorial In advocacy OF Crawford
Primary. The views Of Mr.. Dyer
also meet my approval, but, TO my
mind neither Of you have touched
the key which, at present, sounds o
discordant note among Democrats
in the county and which needs ct
tuning again to the peoples taste
and will, in order to send forth those
harmonious notes which will sound
victory In the approaching contest.
To have the ticket named bya Oraw-
ford Primary will indeed mean some
thing to those chosen. but with the
party machinery controlled by one
individual and that solely for his
own selfish ends. and without any
regard for the success OF the party
or the welfare OF the county, for,
even should be be on the ticket and
defeated, and though heshould drag
everyone else on the ticket TO defeat
with him, he would still hold his

The crownlna q the oueen.

The old church ct Newi0wn Neck
held It's cornation service last Sum
day afternoon, when the Statue Of
the Blessed Virgin was solemnly
crowned In the presence Of all the
Sunday school children and teach
rers. The dark and lowering clouds
of the morning gave little promise
of the glorious afternoon that even
tually wound up the day. How
ever q surprisingly large crowd,
considering the uncertain weather,
was at hand to participate In the
May procession ia which the child
rem both white and colored marched
in q way to delight all. With their
simple pietY with their wreaths and
flowers, and With their May songs
and prayers they paid their tribute
Of veneration to Gods exalted Moth
or. and when Mamie Leach the May
Queen placed the garland OF bios
SONS on Our Lady's statue. the de-
votion and enthusiasm Of all present
were noticeably edifying and soul
satisfying TO q degree worthy OF the
best ages Of faith. Such events as
the one we have just mentioned, fos.
ter the spirit of loyalty to Christ
and instil a love Of those virtues
that adorned the soul of the privileg-
cd Mother OF Our Savior, and have
made her after Him the first model
for the imitation Of all mankind.
Virtues like humility, purity. char
ity and patience are very desirable
In every land, and these were urged
upon ell who came TO honor the
Mother of the King, Ia the May walk
at Newtown. During the Benedic-
tion that followed tho corronation,
Miss Agnes Ching Of Le0nardtOwn
sang an ADe Marid that inspired
and lifted up the entire congrega-
tion. Her duet with Mrs. Oscar
Wathen. aud the playing of the or
ganist, Mrs. Perry Abel, together
with the singing OF her daughter,
Mrs. Claude Guy, we're other nota-
BILE features OF the celebration.
The arrangements and success of the
procession are due In large measure
TO the direction of Miss Noema Wath-
en-, the accomplished teacherof New
town school, aided by the Misses
Lillian and Essie Payne. Annie Will
liams, Annie and Minnie Leach, and
others Of equal zeal and devotedness.

GIRL GUIDED BY DREAM
IN QUEST FOR LOST MAN;
LAST HEARD OF in TACOMA
(Ry United Press Leased Wire.)

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. IL
Actuated by a dream Miss Ger
trude Brookes, who registered
from Mare Island, Is in this city
searching for an old school friend,
George Tolemie of Elizabeth, N.
j.. who mysteriously disappeared
while touring through the West
last March.
Today Miss Brookes declared
that she dreamed recently that
the missing man would be in San
Francisco about this time and she
Immediately came to the city to
find him and restore him to his
wife and family in the East.
Last Word From Tacoma.
Tolemie was the Western and
Pacific coast representative of the
Zoller company of New York. The
last heard of Tolemie was from
Tacoma, early last spring, when
he wrote that 1t was his intention
of taking a trip into Idaho. Sine
then no trace of the man can be
found and the Order of Elks, OF
which he is a member, has been
attempting to find him.
'"rhe two of u.s." she said,
'were close boy and girl friends
and his disappearance worried me
considerably. About two weeks
ago dreamed that he had been
abducted in Idaho but had escap-
ed from his captors and was on
his way to San Francisco. Try
as I would I could not dispel the
effect of the dream and SO / came
to San Francisco to find him."
Miss Brookes declared that she
had no interest in Tolemie other
than friendship. Miss Brookes
is wealthy and she has authoriz 81
any lodge of Elks to extend what
ever aid they can to Tolemie at
her expense should they discover
his whereabouts.
