NOW as for you seeing this affair diff ferently to myself, you have a perfect right to do so. and you certainly have my consent and approval, as 1 think 1t becomes the citizens at all times to ex- press their views, but I do deny you the right to question my version of the same affair simply because I do not agree with you
 You place great stress upon the fact that you were not in the second story window just across the street Also that you think my suggestion to call on the grand jury should be carried out as Mr. Allen had made certain statements We'll I am certainly proud of the fact that only viewed this scene from across the street in a second story window as you say and had I the great experience that you say you have and been heartless enough to stand in 20 feet of this scene as you say you did, thereby putting you very close to the net that could have saved these men, and mad made abso- lutely no effort to do my duty as a citi- zen, although I had vast experience in fires. certainly would feel that I had no part whatever in the lives of other men.
 Yes, this case will be brought before the grand jury, as will also your case, and you will be given a chance to make your statement under oath if you can anord to. that you actually stood within 20 feet of these men when they fell and then sneaked off and now say that ev- erything possible was done for them.
 Personally speaking did not know that we had such man in this city and regret very mucA that have been drawn into this controversy with a man whom I do not know and cannot say whether he has a ring in his nose or not, but am an awful good guesser However. I will continue to express my opinion regardless of c. c. Graves. who ne IS, where he coms from or whom he belongs to, and hope sincerely that will not feel called upon again to use his name c. M.

COUNTRY CONFERENCE
COMES TO AN END.
Large Number of Maryland Minis
terS Attend Sessions at Agricul-
tural College-Prepare II Work
ing Program for Country Church.

The first country life conference
for rural ministers at the Agricul-
tural College closed last Saturday
with a stirring address by Rev.
Ward Plat, of New York, who
spoke on the great field open 10
the country minister as a force in
/ the Wpbuilding of world Christiani-
! ty. He declared that the country
minister cannot build a live church
on decaying agriculture. He must
! bend his energies toward encour-
! aging more progressive methods of
! farming and education for country
| life, with his church as the guiding
| force, if he is to be of genuine ser
vice to his people.
Over two hundred ministers from
all parts of the State attended the
conference, and the opinion was
freely expressed among them that
none had ever attended a more
harmonious or helpful inter-denomi-
! national conference More EXPIRES
sive than wards was the first fruit
gram for the country minister, pre-
pared by a committee consisting of
Reys. H. MCGrew, of Silver Spring;
J. R. Edwards, of Walbrook; c. A.
Snyder, of Middletown; H. T. Han
mill, of Gaithersburg, and T. d.
Richards, of Germantown.
They recommended that the
country minister should make his
church the center for the general
uplift of his community. To this
end, he must project the spirit of
Jesus Christ into the lives and
daily activities of his people. In do
ing this, he should work in hearty
cooperation with the other chur-
ches in his community in order to
unite their people in social service.
He should also join with his fell
low ministers in making a thorough
and comprehensive survey in each
community with view to ascer-
tanning its moral and religious con-
dition. He must thoroughly know
his people and his neighborhood if
he is to minister to them and their
needs. He should encourage such
open and dignified methods in
raising and expanding church funds
as will tend toward creating keen
sense of obligation to support ade-4
quately the local and general in
terests of the church.

This cooperative work brings
better prices to the growers, a
standard quality of goods, lower
prices to the consumer by eliminat-
ing the waste of unorganized distri-
button and keeps prices from big
fluctuation on the retail markets.
One town, Svea, Mimi, farming
community, has established and
operated successfully a co-opera-
tive store, insurance company and
it is now forming a cooperative
bank. The movement spreads, a
testimony to its success.
More cooperation would cut down
the present-day scarcity of certain
fruits and vegetables in one town
while in another these same pro-
ducts are deeaying and going to
waste.
