yesterday. Thomas S. Taylor, of
Second Baptist Church. was elected
president Of the society. Other Off
GERS follow:
Harry Link. Delaware Avenue
Church, first vice-president; Michael
Niagofski, second vice-president;
Lewis Blanchheld, Bethany Baptist
Church, secretary; Charles H. Can't
Well. Hope Baptist Church, treas
urerT Harry Emmons. Delaware Ave
nue. Church; l.. r. Beardslee, Second
Baptist, and the Rev. r. b. Wash
burn, North Baptist, trustees for
three years.
The session opened with l.. r.
Beardslee presiding.
George G.. Penny the Rev. j. r.
Hunsberger and the Rev. Mr. Irwin
were appointed a nominating commit
tee, and the Rev. Il. p. Washburn,
Hiram Yerger and j. II. Westcott
were appointed on the auditing COM
mittee.
During the afternoon reports were
received from the officers of the as
sociation showing that It was in ex-
cellent condition. A long discussion
followed the report on Hope Church.
The church is without a pastor at
this time and as the congregation is
small, collections have not been large
enough to support a pastor.
Harry Emmons declared that the
church is being neglected by the
other churches of the city and that
he thought the natural thing to do
/ would be to sell the church. He de-
plored the fact, however, that this
should come to pass and hoped the
other churches would come to its as
/ sistance, as they have done toward
the Polish work here.
Mr.. EmmOns pointed out that at
the present time the Wilmington Bap-
tist City Mission Society is contribut-
ing about $500 a year toward the sup
port of the Polish mission and not one
cent toward Hope Church. He didn't
think such a condition should be al
lowed to continue Considerable dis
cussion followed the remarks of Mr.
Emmons. He was Of the opinion that
the money should be divided between
the two interests. but the society
thought that this was not feasible
since they are pledged to give the
amount.
The Rev. w. L. Pettingill declared
that a pastor should be provided for
Hope Church, and was the first to
pledge 500 from his congregation on
condition that a pastor should be
paid not less than $500 a year. Mr..
Emmons followed by pledging a per-
sonal contribution of $50. Another
member pledged $50.
The Home Missionary Society and
the State Society pledged themselves
to subscriptions of S175 and the Hope
Church viii raise $3.50. Other dole
gates offered assurance that their
churches would give the proper
amount

make a statement.
Weldin said that while coming up
Union street at Fourth, at a rate of
speed not exceeding ten miles an hour
he met an automobile bearing a New
Jersey tag. The two machines we're
running together and at that instant
the child dashed in front of the ma
chimes. The girl escaped being hit
by the New Jersey machine but ran
in front Of the Weldin machine. The
child appeared bewildered and when
Weldin swerved his machine the child
ran in front of his car. Had the girl
stood still, Weldin said she would not
have been struck.
In City Court yesterday morn
ing Weldin was given a hearing on a
charge Of manslaughter, and after
hearing the evidence the court con-
tinued the case for a week to con-
slider the testimony.

Easy Way to Remove
 Freckles and Eruptions

Some women have skin of sucn tex the sudden appearance of freckles. slight eruptions or fine lines. March winds usually play havoc with skins of that kind. In such cases if one wiIi procure an ounce of common mercolzed wax at any drug store apply q little of it before retiring, like cold cream, she can easily overcome the trouble. When the wax is washed off next morning faky skin particles com with it. The entire outer cuticle is re- moved in this way in 3 week or so, with all it's defects. No bleach could so efectually remove freckles or blemishes. The new surface is smooth, clear. fresh looking. No pain or inCop- Venience accompanies this simple treatment.
 In cases of wrinkles which sink be- heath the outer skin. a solution of sax olite- oz.. dissolved in F pt. witch hazel makes a face bath which is won 1erfully effective.
