The amount you have named for an
endowment is 100000. This is a
large sum, but Peninsula Methodism
has done and can still do great things
and the church is fully equal to its
present duty.
We further recommend and earnest
ly urge that you stand TO the endow-
ment plan already agreed upon and
push it with all possible vigor. The
academy is the one enterprise Of this
conference It's success will be 10
your credit and glory: for It 10
languish would be a reproach. and
the shame of its failure is unthink-
able.

WASHINGTON. d. c.. April 1.-The

will consist of 101 .033 officers and
men after the increase just authorized
by Congress has been made.
There will be a total OF 121 .663 Off
GERS and men in the army but not all
OF them belong to the dghting force
of the nation. More than 20.0O0-2O.-
$50 10 be exact-do not do any fighting
at all. but are assigned TO what. in
plain words. is Office work.
These soldiers who are not called
upon to do any fighting are employed
in the departments OF the adiutant
general. inspector general and judge
advocate. in the bureau Of insular af-
fairs. the ordnance department. the
medical and recruiting departments,
etc.
The United States army is divided
into 25 departments.
OF these. only four belong to the line
force-the force that would get out
and do the fighting in the case of war.
These departments are the cavalry.
coast artillery, field artillery and in
fantIy.
Uncle Sam will have Is regiments

Miss Grace l.. Osborn. general secre-

Danuser of Dodge. Wisconsin. whom
the extension committee OF the local

take up the work OF industrial secre-

II the entire s6.117 had been raised,
$1,223.4O would have gone to the New
York board. S97S.72 to the Conference
Board of Education and S3.914.SS to
the Conference Academy. We are un-
able at this time to report how much
has been raised or what will come TO
the Academy.
Unless funds sufficient to meet nee
essary expenses come into our hands,
the inevitable result must be a grow
ing debt which in time may even
threaten your continued control OF
the institution or make necessary a
desperate effort TO free and save Il.
The Indebtedness is as follows: Con-
tinental Life. $4,000; First National
Bank OF Dover. $4,000; Farmers Bank
Of Dover, S2.500
The item Of $4,000 for the most
part represents the new gymnasium,
a permanent improvement, and
good part of the other Indebtedness
was incurred for improvements.
Beside the direct indebtedness.
there is a contingent liability OF S6.-
800. This has been incurred through
the long prevailing policy of taking
students notes. and when these are
discounted with the endorsement OF
the academy, the institution is, Of
course, liable if the makers should
fail to meet them.
The direct Indebtedness ought to
be paid. We have expected by or be-
fore the close OF the school year. with
funds now in hand and in prospect.
to pay off more than $4,000 before the
safaH . 4
uncollectible students notes above
mentioned Will curtail the debt reduc-
tion by that amount and there will
certainly remain a much larger debt
than we ought to carry.

Klein Isn't Scotch But He's Golf Bug;
Spends off Season Hiking on Links
Home Life of Umpires- mo. 4
BY HAROLD JOHNSON.

Bill Klein cultivates two distinct
hobbies. not indulged in by any other
big league umpire. Unless he has his
walking stick with him, he does'n fig
ure he is dressed up. Unless he has
his bag of golf sticks. he wouldn't
think of starting out his season on the
National League circuit.
When out for a stroll. his walking
stick is as necessary to Klem's proper
enjoyment. as is a leg to the ordinary
man. Golf has become a passion With
him. He knows far more about the
etiquette of the links than the dia-
mond. and no one can shoot fore in
more approved fashion.
KLEIN winters in Lakewood. New
Jersey. among the tall pines and the
high brows. Lakewood is a most Sc
lected and secluded place. frequented
by the 400 and millionaires. Unkind
ball players. when displeased al some
OF Bill's rulings. insist he must have
backed into the place OF a freight. or
stolen into town under cover Of dark
ness. but Bill says he doesn't mind the
idle chatter Of the disgrunted athletes.
Several times last summer l tried
TO locate KLEIN at his hotel. but the
clerk always informed me that Bill
with a party of friends had just left
for the links. to play eighteen holes.
and that he would not he hack until
evening, intending 20 go direct from
the links to the ball park.
When I managed to meet KLEIN in
Lakewood. had to do some cross
country work. and catch up TO him at
the eighth hole. Probably my intru-
sion somewhat spoiled his game, be-
cause he didn't play in true champion
ship style. can't just recall what
ahbi Bill offered. but I do know II
