nue Baptist church John d. Rookie

of the First Congregational church of
San Francisco, and was read to the
congregation by the present pastor.
the Rev. Donald b. Fraser.
Mr.. Morse inquired if the pastor.
Mr.. Fraser is prepared to vacatc the
pastorate in favor of Dr. Aked. and If
Pembroke chanel will recall the peace
emissary, adding 81 think, upon the
whole, that would be the most COM
plete yindication of DR.. Aked possible,
and settle for all time DR.. Aked's
status in the Christian ministry" The
writer said he would gladly take up
the matter with DR.. Aked.
AS soon as Mr.. Fraser had finished
reading the letter, member OF the
congregation proposed vote of con-
fidence in the present pastor, which
was Immediately seconded and car
ried unanimously.

Little Rock, Dec. 2S.-Soon after the
first Of the year, the state bank com
mission, through its blue sky depart
ment, of which w. T. Maxwell is the
head will undertake an active cam.
paign for popularizing the building
and loan association as a thrift pro-
position in the smaller towns of the
state. ..#
when we teach thrift" said Mr.
Maxwell, eve SHOULD provide means
for its exercise. ."rhe young men
and women on salary, and men in
business, if given the means of sav-
ing by small monthly deposits,
would soon accumulate competence.
But the majority have no institutions
aside from the banks, that encourage
small savings. There ere only forty
two building and loan associations in
the state, and half of them are in Lit
tie Rock. Nashville is the only one
of the smaller towns of the state
that has an association, and it IS
doing a great deal Of good. Every
town of 500 population and over
should support a building and loan
association"
From reports just completed for
80 of the associations four not hav-
ling reported. it appears that the ag-
gregate assets are $10,174,00 "a.
There is investment stock sold and
outstanding amounting to $25,417,~

Playing far below her best form Miss
Male Wears was defeated by Miss
Vera Beyfuss of California, in straight
sets yesterday afternoon on the Hawaii
Polo and Racing Club courts, o.; Ga.
The Hawaii champion seemed to have
stage fright at times and her play went
to pieces. At other times she displayed
flashes of tennis that took Miss Beyfuss
of her feet. The younger player han
died her strokes with greater ease and
Rnesse than the California player, and
although she covered the courts faster,
her play was marred by her apparent
nervousness.
Miss Beyfuss displayed greater poise
and kept her head at all times. Because
of this she was able to outplay Miss
Wears both at the net and in the back
court.
Both players used the backhand
stroke freely and great share Of the
play was at the net Many pretty ex-
hibitions of volleying were displayed
Miss Wears had the harder serve, but
lost her points by unsteadiness in re-
turning her opponents drives.
The match was closely contested, as
attested by the score.
Many of the games in each set went
to deuce and add.
Miss Beyfuss took the first three
games of the first set before Miss Vic
airs started her play. The third game
went to deuce and was characterized
by many pretty volleys. Miss Wears
seemed to gain better control of herself
for she took the next game, also the
sixth and seventh, and caused the
eighth game to go to deuce before Miss
Beyfuss won. The Punahou player ran
the last game of the set to forty when
Miss Beyfuss won the game and first
set.
Both players used the net to q great
extent in the beginning of the second
set. AS in the first set Miss Beyfuss
won most of her games in the first half
of the play. The fifth game went to
deuce and a double fault gave the add
to Miss Wears. On an error by the Ha,
waii player the game went to deuce
again, and in an attempt to return a
tart lOlI ny MlSS Dey uSS, MISS NlCdTS
lost the game. Miss Wears took the
seventh and eighth games handily. By
winning the ninth game, she ran the
score up to "a.
But Miss Wears showed apparent
nervousness with the score so close, and
her serves went wild in the last game,
which Miss Beyfuss won, and with it
the set and match.
A good gallery was in attendance and
arplanded the efforts of the players
freely. Both players will be seen in
the doubles this week and some inter
ested play is promised when the teams
on which they play meet
The summary of the match is as fol,
