Church Wins
In Long Suit

This week the state supreme court
rendered decision sustaining the
court of appeals which had previous
ly sustained the district court in the
matter of boundary lines Of the pro-
perty of st. Peters church in this city.
The church organization bought the
property from T. H. Cash on acreage
basis. Later the property reverted
to other parties, loan company. It
was claimed by the original owners
that the property had been sold a.
plated ground which would very ma
terially change the lines Of the pro-
perty cutting off considerable Of the
church holdings. The purchase by
the church was of two-thirds Of .
block. and had the court not sustain
ed this organization the amount OF
property acquired would have been
considerably less.
The decision upholding st. Peters
church fixes the boundary line so; it
runs through the kitchen of the T.
H. Cash brick residence. Several
years ago before the case went to
court the church people offered to
compromise and settle the case but
the offer was rejected. -.

The mistake is in thinking that all
poetry is for all readers. On the con-
trary the realm of poetry is as wide
rs the world. for the very reason that
each man may find there Just what
he needs and leave the rest. The
thing is to discover the poetry that
was meant for us, and perhaps the
best way to do that is to turn over the
pages of some well-made selection.

Through this method which was

This is one of the most important
things that has been accomplished by

The proposition was brought to the
attention of the commissioners by

ity bureau and by Township Trustee

in counties in which he has examined
books where such cooperative
methods are in effect
In return for the services of the

the needs OF the people who apply to
the trustee for aid, the commissioners
agreed to grant extra appropriations
for widows and children who are con-
tinually dependent upon the township
for support.

CONGRESS COMPELLED
TO STAY IN SESSION
BECAUSE OF STRIKE

WASHINGTON, Aug. Ex-senator
Kern, the majority leader OF the sen.
ate today announced it would be i'm
possible for congress to adjourn Fri
day, the time tentatively fixed by ad-
ministration leaders some days ago.
Regardless Of the strike develop
ment," said Senator Kern, "the parlia.
mentary situation is such that It will
be impossible for congress to finish
its business on Friday. l can not say
how much longer 1t will take
The whole situation now hinges on
the outcome of this afternoons con.
ference at the White House between
the president and railroad men" Any
legislative program related to the
strike situation or any decision re-
garding joint session of congress to
hear the president can not be made
until after that conference.
Later Senator Kern announced that
he had called meeting of the steer
ing committee at 4-o'clock to listen to
the president. 1t is understood that
the president and his advisors have
agreed on legislative program which
they believe will enable the president
to prevent any nation wide strike
While the nature of this program is
being guarded it is believed it will be
carried AS an amendment to the Adam
son bill which has already passed the
house.
