GIFTS TO THE HOSPITAL

And when thou doest aims let
not thy left hand know what thy
right hand doeth." These were the
words OF Jesus and were spoken by
him in order to condemn ostenta-
tious giving-giving for the advertise
ment that is In IL.
The Citizen has discovered that
there are a number of people in Be
rea who are literally practicing the
precept of the Master. for their gifts
are unknown to the public and they
desire to have them remain so. But
this liberty is taken with their pur-
pose in order to encourage others
TO practice the same kind OF giving.
II is possible that good many peo-
pie think that the Hospital is able to
take care of itself. and has no needs
that the charitably inclined In Berea
could supply. But last year a number
Of women led by Mrs. Lou Hanson
and Mrs. Dodge gave canned fruit,
jellies and jam, and the Mrs. Lou
and Fay Hanson have given grapes
this year. Miss Laura Click sends in
a supply OF milk. butter. jelly and jam
almost every month and so does Mrs.
Lengfellner.
Mrs. Cowley has been very generous
in giving fruits. gowns and hmonas.
and a rocking chair for the nurses
from her has been very much appre-
ciated.
Miss Lottie Goodell furnishes one
OF the largest rooms In the Hospital.
She is making a children's ward of II
In memory OF little Anna Cowley.
Miss Cameron has furnished a room
also, as has Miss Moore and some of
her northern friends.
Mrs. Thomson and Mrs. Ellis have
sent their old magazines for which
the inmates Of the Hospital have
been very grateful. And last year Mrs.
Ellis supplied through her friends a
number Of sheets. pillow cases, two
comforters. blankets and a number of
night shirts, while Miss Robinson's
friends sent a dozen sheets. towels
and pillow cases. half dozen cook
ing aprons. tea towels and some night
gowns, and not the least appreciated
of all. some old cloths which come
in well in surgical dressings.
The Hospital is proving a great
blessing TO the school. the town and
community in general and such gifts
as the above help IT greatly TO meet
the needs and comforts OF its pa
TENTS.

UNION CHURCH RALLY SERVICES

The Rally Day services at the
Union Church which were advertised
In The Citizen last week proved very
enjoyable and profitable. The Sunday
School program was all that was

interesting addresses by Professor

ject, "The Value of the Church.
Prof. Robertson showed strikingly
the individuals need Of the church

Editor Citizen:
Your readers may be Interested In
a brief report of the work of a Coun-
ty Supt. of schools in this County in
West Virginia.
II has been my pleasure to meet
the Supt. of schools of this county
and | was somewhat surprised to find
that he had spent his vacation In
taking up one country school house
after another and seeing that every
needed repair on the building was
made and in many cases various con-
veniences added. Fences properly re-
paired. grounds graded where necss-
sary, walks laid. trees set out, and
grounds properly seeded. After this
work was completed in every district
in the county, up-to-date appliances
were added to assist the teacher in
instruction.
This work when left to each dis
trict is generally neglected or poorly
done at a very much greater expense
than when done in a business way
as has been done in this county.
Most respectfully,
& L. Clark

the workers OF the College and a mum
her of the citizens OF Berea met at
Boone Tavern to say good bye to
Mr.. McLaren.
President Frost was the spokes-
man of the gathering and voiced the
esteem In which Mr.. and Mrs. McLar-
en- are held In Berea. At the close
OF his talk the President presented
Mr.. McLaren with a beautiful home
made coyerlet as keepsake from his
many Berea friends.
Mr.. and Mrs. McLaren were both
students in Berea College. They
returned To Berea six years ago when
Mr.. McLaren accepted the position
OF Accountant. II Is needless to say
that they will be missed In every
good work. In Mr.. Mcl.aren's depar-
ture the institution loses one OF its
most faithful and loyal workers and
II is indeed very much TO be regretted
that the condition OF Mrs. McLarens
health made II necessary for them
to leave.

YACHT CLUB To
ENTER REGATTA
Will Send Boats to keyport
Event Labor Day.

Plans were made last night at a
meeting Of the members of the Rari-
tan Yacht Club to enter the dory, the
sailboats now in the series. and the
speed boats belonging to members
in the regatta to be held at Keyport
on Labor Day under the auspices Of
the KeyPort Yacht Club.
Last year this affair was a decid-
ed feature over there, and the local
yachtsmen are anxious to get in it
again this year.
The regatta consists of dory races
under the name OF the Raritan Bay
DOry Association, which will wind up
the dory series for the season, sail
boat and the speed boat races. Swim
ming and other aquatic sports will
also make up the program.
1t was decided to hold the next
race in the sailboat series of the club
next Saturday afternoon, when some
good races are expected. Captain
Decker, of To~ttenville, who has sail
ed the Bentley dory to victory so
many times, will have the ttller in
Wight's sloop, the BOle, and will
make an attempt to trim the inyinci-
Bile Tempest, of Railway. 1t was first
planned to have twelve races in the
series, but this will probably be cut
down to ten, leaving five more races
to be sailed off, and bringing the
series up to the first of October.
The committee in charge of the re-
cent Clambake reported favOrably on

Young Rossi had previously been
arraigned before the recorder on a

promises that he would be good in
the future the lad was released after
spending a day and a night in a cell.
The court warned him that the very
next arrest would mean a term in
