ond annual conference at Estes Park,
Colo, July 1925, the Missionary Edu-
cation Movement gives out the follow
ing:
Rev. G. w. Cassidy. joint secretary.

The conference is held on the
grounds of the Estes Park association
which owns and has developed for
conference purposes three hundred
and seventy-five acres in the most
beautiful section of the park close up
to Longs Peak The conference
grounds are seven thousand eight hun
bred feet above sea level and are sur
rounded by splendid mountains on
every side.
The unusual beauty of surroundings
and the seclusion of the grounds con-
tribute largely to their value as a
place for conferences. The Estes
Park corporation has provided for the
conferences annually meeting on its
grounds, one of the most complete
conference equipments in America.
The expense involved in attendance
at the conference is very moderate,
special rates being made by the rail-
roads, and the hotel accommodations
being available at variable charge.
At least one special train is being adj
vertised from Kansas and Nebraska
while the churches of Denver are
planning to send automobile loads of
delegates direct from Denver into the
park.

ticulars concerning this conference
may be had by addressing any Home
or Foreign Mission Board or from the

paid a high tribute tc the work of

the Junior, varsity and freshman

the junior, varsity and freshman
Fights of the Crimson.
Only one race, the junior varsity
event, was started on time. The four
mile varsity contest was delayed an
hour and fifteen minutes by rough
water and the freshman race, post
poned from forenoon, until after the
feature event.
Fully 10000 spectators witnessed
the contests from the observation cars
which followed each race along the
banks of the Thames while the river
shores were thronged. That the Blue
had a crew of particular power and
finish is shown in the figures of the
four mile race, where the Yale oars
men set their own pace and in so do
ing established a new upstream record
of twenty minutes, fifty-two seconds,
beating the time made by the Yale
eight of 1907 by IS seconds. The
time of both crews in the race by
miles, follows:
One mile-Yale 4:40; Harvard 4:45.
Two miles-Yale 1906: Harvard
1914.
Three miles-Yale 1927; Harvard
1898.
Four miles-YaIe 2o:52; Harvard
21:131A.
The freshman race, rowed in semi
darkness over a mile and a half
course, was won by the Yale first
year crew by approximately one
length, the time being: Yale min
utes, seconds: Harvard minutes,
10 seconds.

Tomorrow afternoon the SavageS

Wichita, Kan, June 26.-Bert Yo-
cum, a street car conductor, was mys-
teriously shot about midnight, while
his car was stopped to let off passen-

sicians assert that he has little chance
for recovery. Passengers on the car
say that no one could be seen in the

The conductors money was not taken

One way the Western league own

of the season more prosperous is to

always has hard time of it.
A half dozen or so holes on the new
Shawnee golf course have been given
the finishing touches. If the weather
man will just lay off the moisture
stuff for a few days the whole course
will be ready for use in a short time.
After watching the score board until
darkness put a stop to the second
game at Lincoln Thursday, an old To-
peka darby who is quite fan said:
well, guess they'll be able to finish
her tomorrow all right if it don't rain,
won't they, boss?'
And why shouldn't they have played
it out Friday instead of starting a new
game? 1t would be more like war If
the players would sleep on their bats
in the park on such an occasion and
go at it bright and early the next
day. Then, if they had to play all
day, the players would earn theih sal
aries-for once.

necessary in getting and keeping
a good orchard, but the returns
far outweigh the cost of the
necessary attention. The main
thing is to understand what is
really necessary. and it seems
to us that right here it is well
to summarize the thing vitality
important in making the home
orchard a success.
|. First of all, is the matter
of location. Good drainage and
convenience to the home are
points that must not be over
looked. for orchards cannot sue

can they be most satisfactory
and useful when too far remov-
ed from the farm home.
