declaration that the Rev. Charles E
Cragg had made serious mistake,
not only In writing the letter that
brought tears to the eyes of Miss
Gladys Dean and her friends, but
that his own pronunciation of the
word Jerusalem, for which he took
her to task. was more incorrect than
that OF the young woman in her sing
ing of Tie Holy City at the Histori-
cal Society performance last Thursday
night.
Miss Dean pronounced 1t "Je-rus-a-
lem
Those who had Standard diction-
aries in their homes discovered that
the only pronunciation offered for the
nause of the Palestine city was that
of .Yeruzalem" while the owners Of
Webster's edition found it to be
"Ler-us-alem" and not "Jerusariem'
or = eruseriem" as the Rev. Mr.,
,TEagg would have IL .ss-4 S-Ss.s
1T was had. enough for him to
have written the letter to the poor
GIRL said one of the members OF
the Historical Society. "but the fact
that the dictionaries prove his own
pronunciation Of the word incorrect
make It all the more uncalled for.
Miss Deans pronunciation" said
one Of the members OF the Histori-
cal Society "may have been incor-
rect. but in the intoning OF the words
to accompany the motions OF those
in the tabieaux. she was forced to
divide the longer one Into syliables.' =
Miss Deans feelings were very
easily hurt, but how about some OF
the remarks she made about our
young women OF Huntingdon said
a member OF Mr.. sCragg' 3 congregation
this morning. "A number OF the
most stunning girls in the villages

the chorouses. girls who are WELL

Miss Dean set eyes on them she said I:
"Oh. these girls Will never do. we

the British steamer Roumanian, only
