At mems supper given in the
church last Friday evening, eleven
hundred and siXty-fve dollars was
subscribed toward our new church en-
terprise. This was the first step in
our final campaign for subscriptions.
About $4,000 of the $4,000 needed
had already been provided for pre-
vious to this meeting. We hope in
the next six or eight weeks to Sc
cure subscriptions to cover the re-
naming $4,000.
We are especially grateful for the
generous subscriptions made by our
friends who are not members. Our
emergency calls for unusual sacrifice
on the part of the congregation. That
they are equal to the emergency is
becoming more evident every day.
At the evening service next Sunday
the pastor will endeavor to acquaint
all with the exact status of the en-
terprise. Be sure to come and bring
a friend.

of an evening well spent and one that

One of the prominent members,
when Intercepted as to the reason

soon be his-when the fair and beau

swings of the racket.
A meeting of the membership was
held last Sunday, when important

Sioht in Plants.

That plants actually may see does
not seem so impossible to those who
have watched a grapevine reach
across a space OF several feet and
obtain support for its extending growth
by fastening its tendrils to neighbor-
ing objects. The long tendrils sent
out by the grapevine sweep in long
courses through the air until they
touch some fixed object, such as a
tree limb, a post or a wire, around
which they quickly turn and bind them
selves tenaciOusly. The seeming &C
curacy with which the tendrils reach
out for distant supports is almost
enough to convince one that the plants
see what they are reaching for An
other example of the seemingly intel
ligent and accurately directed actions
of plants is furnished by the insecti-
vorous plants, such as the Venus Fly
Trap, which instantly closes upon and
absorbs as food insects that alight
upon it.

lost a hard game last Saturday. 1t
was one of the best games played in
the Parochial School League this sea
son. The score was tie at the end Of
both halves, and 1t was only lucky
shot in the play-off that beat the Holy
Name boys. II was a hard game 10

been won had not Maurice RobiChaux,
the best goal shooter and ground COW
erer on the team, wrenched his shoul-
der the night before. Thus handicap

lineup, ii gamely went through a clev-

passing Of the team was much in evil
dence and was applauded many times
by the fans.

Newark, n. J., May 2.-One lone

His name is Rupert Mills and he is a
clever high school graduate with
whom Patrick T. Powers, the mag
nate of the league, made a two-year
contract last summer. After the fail

all his other contract players to vari-
Gus leagues but Mills refused to be

tary practice earns him $4,000 year.
Powers, who is rich and lives here,
does not pretend to enjoy the expert
ence of being the only eX-magnate in
the country with private team of one
