MOVE Is FAVORED BY
THE CLERICAL BRANCH
Effort to Have the Denomination TO
Approve Devine Healing Is Led by
New Hampshire Minister and Big
Majority of Clergy Votes for
tho Measure.

CINCINNATI, OHIO, Oct. IA
resolution giving the sanction of the
Protestant Episcopal Church to the
healing of the sick by prayer was
adopted in one section of the house
o: deputies of the Protestant EpiscO
pal conference today, but was defeat
ed in another section by the narrow
margin of five votes.
The voting was by diocoses.
That a majority of the house OF
deputies were in favor of the report
was shown clearly when the clerical
branch adopted it by vote of Al
yeas to II nays, with nine diOceses
not voting or divided. The laymen OF
the house, however, killed the report
by vote of 81 ayes, 80 nays, -four
dioceses not voting. 1t required a
majority in both orders of the house
TO carry the report.
While the question will come VI
future date, ii is regarded as improb
able that the upper house of the con
ference will take any action on it.
Explains Position.
Rev Lucious Waterman, rector oil
ST. Thomas church. Hanover, n. H.
presented the report. In doing so he
explained that he had no fear of the
word supernatural" He continued
IF Jesus did heal sick in the first
century in a supernatural manner he
can do so today; and to recognize
that faith is not to put the church
il the position of not recognizing
modern science. While the limits OF
modern science have been reached
We have not reached the limits of the
power of God"
Rev. H. NJ. S. Taylor. of Atlanta
endorsed DIR. Waterman's resolution
He said the Episcopal church had
been taken in the dark in the matter
of divine healing.
1T is our own fault" he declared
for this magnificent gift was given to
us by our blessed Lord in the begin
ming. This power of restoring the
sick by prayer was thrown away by
our church. and a woman picked vi
that jewel. Now, | say, let us take
back our own and use this magnifi
cent gift in the name of the church
Opposed by Laity.
The laity of the house of deputies

While the large vote polled for the
resolution came as surprise, the
belief prevailed tonight that the sub
iect would not be revived at this con
yentiOn.
At the opening of the session Of
the house of deputies. today. prayer
was offered for the fire sufferers OF

Bean Growing

Greeley, Aug. with 100 acres of

per acre planted near Greeley. all grow
ing well and promising splendid re-
turns, new industry has opened here
which will without doubt soon equal
that of the pea growing or some of the
other crops. This is the first year that
green beans have been grown for the
C aiming factory and it is proving a
most profitable crop.
The first picking of beans has Just
aegun, but by the middle of the week
the heavy crop will come on and from
that time on the fields will be picked
every second day. japanese boys are
principally employed for this because
of their quickness; and the careful work
which they do.
The contracts are made out to two
persons, the landlord and the pickers,
and each gets S7a cents per hundred
pounds for the beans, making them
bring 81. Is per hundred altogether.
1t is estimated that an acre of beans
will produce half carload of the can

taken care of, the yield is almost
