!AMAREETA.

/.
The world takes on a brighter hue
Since Amareeta's face I knew:
In spring more roses meet the dew.
And birds sing sweeter;
The secret let me tell to you:
'Tis all for Amareeta,

How bright each glimpse of life ap-
pears!
What music fills the days and years
The sunlight twinkling through itfe's
tears,
Heavens beauty giving;
Her smile the radiance of the years
That sweeten living.
And I shall know that sometime
there,
Where all is beautiful and fair.
A rose l know will deck the hair
OF Loves sweet Amareeta!

The American delegates consisting
OF Gustavus Kerby. Colonel Robert NJ.
Thompson. James L. Sullivan. Barton
S, Weeks and Joseph 3. Maccabc. will
ask the new association to suggest
that a number of perpetual trophies be
secured and awarded during the games
at Berlin in 1916 These will include a
Grand international trophy for the
winner of the greatest number of
points in all the recognized Olympic
sports of the meet. together with a
number of minor trophies for the win
ming nations In track competition,
swimming: wrestling: cycling and SINH,
for three years and then returned to
the country holding the succeeding
meet
The question of the measurement
methods of future games also will be
discussed At present the Olympic
meets are based upon the metric sys-
tenn. whereas the leading athletic ma
tons of the world use yards and feet
i'll measuring track and field sports. 1t
appears likely that this proposed re-
form Will fail, however. owing to the
fact that the metric system has been
used in Olympic games since the
ancient meets in Athens. and Is really
q better understood system. from an
international standpoint. than that af-
forded by the English measuring
methods.
AL present there Is no way of COM
pairing the best efforts of tho worlds
leading athletic performers under the
two systems For example the 100
yards. a standard sprint in America,
Eng gland, Australasia, Canada and South
Africa. is nine yards ono foot and one
inch short of the 100 metre sprint De-
spite this clash in tho two measuring
systems. it Is probable that the point
of substituting the English for the
metric system will be passed if the
countries most interested can secure Il
standardized set of Olympic events.
This in itself would be great adai- iy
This in itself would be Il great advant-
age and assistance to countries pre-
pairing to enter teams, since 1t would
permit the program to be known sew
eral years in advance In addition it
will bar the local Olympic committees
from inserting in the schedules n mum
Der of events or contests which are
intended purely for home athletic tall
ent. and which continue for period OF
time which absolutely bars foreign en-
trants from continuing in the compe-
tition.

GREAT OUTBURST
OF ENTHUSIASM
Missionary Conference Rejoices
Over Contributions for
It's Work.

Asheville. y. c., June 2s.-The second
general missionary conference of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, South.
which has been in session of rive days
at Lake Junaluska, Waynesville. came
TO an end this afternoon with Bishop
a. w. Wilson presiding. The closing
hours of the conference were featured
by remarkable outburst of enthu-
siasm which added $4,000 more to the
! total of $4,000 subscribed to-day The
grand total was pushed past the
100000 mark. when 1t was announced
that a Mississippi man had given 500
acres of land for the erection of an
educational institution for the colored
race. The property is valued at more
than $4,000. The total funds sub
triples the record reached at New Or
leans five years ago.
Bishop j. II. Mccoy preached a spe-
cial sermon 1T the morning services.
At the closing exercises this after
noon Bishop Lambuth detailed the re-
suits of his personal efforts to establish
mission stations in Africa and a COM
parativeiy new field of labor for the
Southern Methodist Episcopal Church
The bishop, who penetrated the heart
of the Congo country during his
travels. declared that the prospects for
successful missionary efforts in Africa
were unusually bright.
The venerable Bishop Wilson de-
livered the closing address. He said
that the Waynesville conference had
been successful TO marked degree in
point of attendance and results accom-
plished. The bishop aroused great en-
thusiasm when he declared that the
conference which closed to-day had
set n new record for missionary con-
tributions. He had never witnessed a
more inspiring sight, he said, than the
general responses made to appeals for
funds yesterday when the sum of $115,-
900 was subscribed in less than an
hour.
