CA. MINISTER
DISAPPEARS
SUDDENLY
IN WEST
Rev. Samuel C. Dean, of Elber-
ton, MysteriousIy Missing.
Object Of Wide Search.

ELBERTON, GA, June Police of
dcers, Masons and Baptists in Kansas
City, Los Angeles and other Western
cities are today searching for Rev.
Samuel c. Dean, pastor of the First
Baptist church of Elberton, Ga. who
has mysteriously disappeared and for
whom grave fears are felt by members
of his church at Elberton and by his
bride of fifteen months Mrs. Dean is
Frustrated and her condition is regard
ed as serious.
Officers of the Elberton church be-
iieve that the missing minister has
either lost his mind. as a result of a
nervous collapse. and is aimlessly wan
dering about in some Western COM
munity. or that he is sick in some
Western hospital or hotel and unable
to notify his wife or friends as to his
whereabouts and condition.
The last information received In
Georgia as to the whereabouts Of Rev
Mr.. Dean was contained in two letters
written on May 81, one to the board Of
deacons Of the Elberton church and the
other to his wife. These letters were
postmarked at Kansas City, but were
written on plain stationery and Enclosed
In plain envelopes that give no In
formation as to where he was in Kan
sas City at the time he wrote.
The letter to the deacons contained
Mr. Deans resignation as pastor at Ell
berton. with the explanation that he
was on the verge OF a nervous break
down and thought he would go farther
West. The letter to Mrs. Dean told or
the resignation having been sent to the
,ieacons and advised her that he was a
very sick man. MI Dean stated in
these letters that he did not believe he
would be able to resume regular work
for six or eight months.
A meeting of the deacons of the Ell
berton church has been held since the
letter from Mr. Dean was received at
which it was decided to endeavor to To-
cate him before taking any action on
his resignation. Another meeting for
that purpose will be held next Wednes-
dav night. In the meantime kilograms
have been sent to the pastor of the
First Baptist church, to Masonic lodges
and to the police department in Kansas
City and to the police in Los Angeles,
asking that they endeaVor to locate

The EIherton church
Mr. Dean left Elberton early in May
for Oklahoma City to represent the
Elberton church and the Georgia Bap-
fist convention at the Southern Baptist
convention recently held in that city.
He was accompanied as far as Calf
porr. Miss. by his three children. by his
first marriage Samuel, aged twslve;
Dorothy, aged nine. and William, aged
six. At Gulfport he left the children
with their grandmother-the mother OF
his first wife, who died about three
years ago. The second Mrs. Dean went
to Knoxville, Tenn. to visit relatives
during her husbands trip West At
Gulfport Mr.. Dean wrote to her that he
was sick from a nervous attack and
was under the care of his brother-in-

The general staff of the army issued
preparatory orders today for the dis

The official order has not yet reached
the post just outside Atlanta, but The
Georgian received a telegram from
Washington just before noon announc-

telephoned to the post.
Two minutes later an orderly ran
down the steps of the headquarters
building and into the officers club. He
delivered a quiet message to one OF the

HOW TO FLAVOR
WATERMEL0NS
New Jersey Farmers Likely
to Adopt Western Experiment
y,ssial 10 tA1 EVENING NEWA

u 5ctut 20 bhH w W.
F~reneau, Sept. 10.-City folk are
likely to be asked what flavor they
prefer in watermelon If a custom
now prevailing in some parts of the
west is put into practice by the Jer-
sey watermelon growers. Accord
ing to Enoch G.. Holgate, one time
of Salem county, and % dean of
the law department of the Indiana
State University, who is now visit
ing friends in New Jersey, the arti-
fetal favoring of melons has been
tried with some success in the Hoo
sier state.
A hyperdermic syringe is used to
inject 1avoring extract into the stem
of the melon while it is green. Van
lila has been found most satisfac-
tory. When the injections of this ex-
tract have been made the delicate
flavor has ~pervaded the luscious fruit
by the time it has fully ripened.
Those who have made the expert
ment say the principle is very simple
and that it is only necessary to avoid
squirting too much ~flavoring syrup
into the stem at once, as the sap
takes up a small quantity more
readily and distributes 1t more even
ly throughout the heart Of the
melon.
Flavoring melons by plugging
them Is no new idea. Epicures be-
lieve that a quart of claret or cham
payne poured into a plugged melon,
which is then put into the ice box to
freeze, makes a summer dessert that
is quite worth while, The idea of
favoring fruit on the vine, however,
is something that is interesting the
growers In certain parts of New Jer-
sey. Should the scheme be put into
practice here some limitation in the
kind of "favors" will be necessary,
as the melons grow to enormous size
and there are dire possibilities In a
! disguised ninety pound jag.
