A Great Day At Grace Church

Sunday was 6 memorable day in
! the history of Grace NJ. E. Church,
South, in Cambridge. For nearly
| five months the Centenary Movement
had been kept continuously to the
front. 1t had gotten on the hearts
of the people. On Thursday evening
of last week a supper was served at
the church, to which the entire mem
bership was invited. At this supper
Rev. F. B. McSrarran, DR.. T. N.
William Phillips, all of whom mo-
tored over from Salisbury. made in
spirfng addresses, and everybody
seemed in best of spirit. The cam
paign director and team captains all
publicly expressed themselves as be-
lieving that we would go 'over the
top" with our quota of SIS, 900 with
out question.
For weeks al organization had
been under construction that well
nigh reached perfection, with Dr. p.
E. Hines as campaign director, and
with four teams of seven Llen each.
When Sunday morning came, the
teams met at the church at $50 for
final instructioG. In the afternoon
they went out to accomplish the
thing of getting the amount sub
scribed. The big drive had been set
e. O%l
clock had been fixed in the church
to point out the contributions each
evening of the week. The teams
were to make their first report at
7.30 p. m. Sunday. When the hour
of preaching arrived in the evening,
the waiting congregation saw the
round past the $4,000 mark. The
thing had been done in less than
day The pastors Centenary SER
mon for the evening was out of date,
and he did not preach it. The direc-
tor and team captains, in few
words, told how it was done. and sex-
pressed their joy. The choir and
aggregation sang heartily, Praise
God, From Whom All Blessings
Flow" and went out rejoicing.
The amount reported was $15,-
$50. 1t was thought for while
that the amount was considerably
more than this, because, through
some mistake, the contributions OF
many of the team men had been du-
plicated in the count. There are
however, a number of contributions
yet to come in. The pastor, DIR.
Hines, and the team captains are de-
lighted. So are the people who
gave.
The splendid body of men who did
this magnificent piece of work in less
than a day are as follows:
Team No. 1.--W. I. Bowdle, cap
tain; Fred Crawford, w. R. Davis,
Harry Reid, S. E. Hubbard, S. M.
Smith, Harry Henry.
Team No. 2.-George Gerlach,

new TERMS DRASTIC
Germany May Reject Conditions
Imposed by Allies.
Whole Aspect of ~Demobilization Has
Undergone Most Sudden and
Vital Change.

London, Jan. 1.-THE Central News
declared that as a result of the Allied
discussions in Paris the whole aspect
of rehabilitation has undergone a
sudden and vital change, this being
shown in the drastic conditions de-
manded of Germany for renewal of
the armistice.
''On authority of an unimpeachable
character" says the Central News, "it
can be stated that situation exists
In Europe under which war may break
out again at any moment. The Allied
war council has arrived at decision
which means that the British people
have mistaken the appearance of
peace for reality. This decision means
that the new British ministry must
revise the whole scheme OF army de.
mobilization.
The decision is that Great Britain
in proportion TO its military strength
must maintain an army of occupation
on the Rhine for many months. If the
rapid increase in rehabilitation re-
Gently were continued there would In
few months be no army in France to
undertake the obligations which by
common decision of the Allies have
been placed upon British shoulders -

WRITERS ARE AROUSED
Correspondents Are Barred From
Peace Meetings.
British Scribes Protest to Premier
Lloyd George and Americans
to President

Paris, Jan. 1.-THE supreme coun-
Gil of the peace congress has decided
that hereafter all information con-
corning tile proceedings will be re-
stricted to an official communique pre-
pared jointly by the secretaries of the
delegations of the five great powers.
The delegates will not comment on or
give any information except that con-
tanned in the official statement.
The understanding is that the
American and British delegates OPP
posed this decision, but that the
French, Italians and Japanese, voting
together. prevailed.
The British newspaper correspond
ents Immediately joined in a memorial
of protest which they put before
Premier Lloyd George. The American
newspaper correspondents united in
what is virtually round robin to
President Wilson, in which they pro-
tested in measured terms against the
decision and reminded the President
that one of his IA points specifies
''open covenants of peace openly 'ar-
rived at"
The memorial is before the Presi
dent and there is every reason to-be
lieye that such storm has been
raised as will force the question be
fore the meeting again before the ac
tual sessions of the peace conference
begin Saturday morning.

Standing on the parapet of trench,
the last surviving man of his party,
with machine gun bullets dropping like
hail around him, Lieut.. Frank Badgfey
of the Canadian field artillery was re-
sponsible for the success of the Cana
dians in the fight for Regina trench
during the battle of the Somme on
November 80, 1916, and was decorated
by King George with the Military
Cross. Yet only few days ago, when
it came to asking q beautiful young
lady to be his bride, the gallant Cana
dian faltered.
The signing of the armistice and the
victory ball, however, seemingly
spurred the lieutenant to further eff
forts, for on the night of the ball, Miss
June Elvidge, a well-known moving
picture star, looked SO radiantly beau
tiful that the lieutenant summoned up
all his courage and asked her to be
his bride, and within AZ hours Miss Ell
vidge had changed her name to Mrs.
Badgley.

HUNS STOLE CARPETS
TO MUFFLE ARTILLERY
Captured Order DiscIoses Use
Made of Things Stripped
From Belgian Homes.

What the ermans did with the
millions of liars of carpets, tapes
tries curtains and similar articles
which they stole from the homes of
the French AMI Belgian people is dis
closed by captured order of the Sew
enth German army, dealing with
preparatory Leasures for the Aisne
offensive last May, which is now made
public for the first time.
The order provided special precau-
tions to reduce noise made by German
artillery while on the march.
"Iron wheel tires must be Tapped
with ropes" it began. "Ropes of
twigs or twisted grass break up too
easily and should not be used. Pads
consisting. of bundles of heather
bound twice between each pair of
spokes with stout wire, last for about
two or three miles. Pads made from
old carpets, curtains, etc, deaden the
sound better than anything else and
last for two or three miles. Pads of
wood wool, bound with double thick
ness of wire netting and wired onto
the wheel, also excellent and last six
to nine miles"
Further provision was made fol
binding horses hoofs with rags, an6
precautions also were to be taken
by free use of "rags"-against the
rattling of thes upper leaves of gur
shields, timber hooks, chains and am
munitlon wagons. :.
