twelfth annual convention OF the
State Association OF Elks, scheduled to
convene in Lynchburg tomorrow
morning at 10 o'clock and remain in
session through FRIDAY has been can
ceied, adverse conditions as result
of the war being responsible for the

1t was stated las. evenir nv Grand
Exalted Ruler Fred Harper that on
account OF troop movements and other

mittee in charge of the arrangements
had been unable to contract with the
Norfolk and Western railway for a
special train to carry one hundred or
more delegates expected to be in at
tendance upon the convention to the
Elks' national home 1t Bedford. The
visit TO the national home was one of
the features of the convention and the
inability to secure train accommoda-
tons and the fact that the Lynch

at Admission. Ala, at anytime. and

REMARKABLE CURES MAEs
Soldier Who Was Struck Dumb at
Front Regained Speech Through
His Own Effort Alone.

There have been many remarkable
cures Of soldiers during the present
war, including men who, through shock
have lost the powers Of sight or OF
hearing or Of speech. One man, struck
dumb at Mons, was suddenly cured by
putting his hand unconsciously on a
very hot water-pipe. Another regained
both speech and hearing while laugh
ing at moving-picture show. A third,
by no means the least interesting, re-
gained his speech through his own de-
liberate effort. The doctor told him
before leaving Boulogne that only his
own effort could cure him. He sug-
gested that he keep on shaping his
mouth as though pronouncing the VOW
els. The man persevered, and one
night suddenly found he could speak.
He kept on talking to himself all night,
lest he should lose the power again.
His fears were unfounded, and ne
was completely cured. 1t is all very
curious. The need for the patients
own deliberate effort is certainly sug-
gestive. 1t calls to mind the case OF
the man with the withered arm. BY
his own effort was he healed. By at
tempting things in faith, slumberlng
powers are wakened to new life.-E1-
