Texas Man Leaves Large Sum To.
ward Chuch In His Will.


With the announcement Saturday
of gife of 100000 to the Bap-
fist rs Million Campaign. through
the will of j. Thomas, layman, of
Dallas, Tex, who died recently, the
largest contribution that has yet
come to the campaign was made pub
lie by DR.. L. R. Scarborough, gener-
al director, upon his return to head
quarters from speaking tour in
Georgia and Alabama. The bulk of
the Thomas estate was bequeathed
to causes fostered by the campaign,
the Texas Baptist Memorial Sanitor-
ium at Dallas, and the Buckner's Or
phans' Home, near there, being
among the benefciaries that were
remembered in an especially liberal
manner.
The Thomas gift is not only the
largest that has come to the cam
paign, but the largest that has been
made by any individual to Baptist
causes in the bounds of the Southern
Baptist convention at any time, DR..
Scarborough advises.

EPISCOPAL CHURCH TO
INCREASE ITS MISSIONS
Last Years Appropriation To Be
Exceeded By Million.

Detroit, Mich, Oct. 6.-The Pro-
testant Episcopal church of Ameri-
ca will spend in foreign and domes-
tic missions during 1920, S1,215,200
more than was appropriated for the
work last year, if recommendations
of the board of missions, which met
today to attend the triennial gener-
al convention, opening Wednesday
are adopted. The board recommend
ed a total budget for mission work
of sS,242,749.
So it will be unnecessary for the
bishop to rely upon donations to f.
nance their work. The board will
underwrite the budget for domestic
missions, recommending an appro-
priation of $685., 900, an increase of
S6O5,OO0. A budget of $4,000 for
Americanization work among immi-
grants was also decided upon.
The board will estimate that it
viii cost in 1920 quarter of a mil
lion dollars to meet the situation in
China.
Creation of a new diocese In
Panama Canal Zone to include Hal
ii, and election of a bishop in charge
were also recommended.

LOCAL CROCERS ARE
 WARNED THAT THEY
 MAY EXPECT A RAISE
Wholesale Dealers Sending Out No tices That They Must Soon Increase Price of All
 the Products

Local grocers have been warned by wholesale dealers that, due to the increased price of raw products and of operation, 1t will be neces sary to raise the price on canned fruits considerably.
 Following is comparison of average prices of canning fruit per ton, as received by Goiastein's Elm porium. It will indicate the raise that will be made in the price of 1919 canned goods over the present price.
 1918 1919 Pricots (Northern) ...$65.00 $100- -110 Yellow Free Peaches. 37.50 45- 60 Yellow Cling Peaches. 5000 85-110 Royal Anne Cherries ~ 155.00 240- - Pears ...............-........... 5000 85- - Plums ........................ 5000 75-100 Strawberries ......................165 240- -
 As to the tonnage, the crop in gen. eral promises a good yield, but it must be borne in mind that the growers are conversant with the fact that the supply is unequal to the de- mand made upon them not alone by the canners, but by the fresh fruit shippers and produce men, crushed fruit and preserve packers. and dried fruit packers, and that, furthermore, the growers costs of production are materially higher than in 1918 and we have voluntarily raised the price on difforaut variatiaa prown for ua under term contracts as high as 50 to 75 per cent to offset the enormous increase in the cost of farm labor.
 Sugar-The 1918 average cost of canners' granulated sugar was 1-2c, the 1919 average is Sc.
 Fuel-It is estimated the cost of fuel for the operation of our plants will be 100 per cent over that of 1918.

(By JESS WiLLARD)

TOLEDO, June 21.-I have told about my road work. For those who are unable to get out to my training ring at Casino, I will tell you today about my ring work.
 I drive out to the Casino about two o'clock. Put on my tights and trunks and lie upon the rubbing table in the screened portion of the big room that serves as dressing room. If the day is hot, as it usually Is, and there is little noise, sometimes take lit tie snooze, about forty winks or so. Promptly at half past two I leave the dressing room for the open air ring under the big trees near the shore of the Maumee River Inside the canvasswalled arena are gathered anywhere from six hundred to two thousand persons, and about 15 per cent of them women.
 How He Exercises. First I tackled the pulleys. This is the ordinary light elastic exerciser It is attached to stout wooden up right at one side of the ring, Stand l ing with my face toward the upright I Timber up with some muscle stretch ing and chest opening stunts, pulling my arms high above my head, twist ing the body sharply on the hips,
 bending to the floor.
 Next I turn my back to the up right and use the pulleys in punch | ing movements. paste away with rights or lefts as though an opponent
 were in front of me. About this time
 commence stretching the elastic ex erciser. That really is a very light | pull, it is snap and vim with which
 I work that starts the sweat. After punching about three min
 utes, still with the handles of the | exercisers pulled taut, stoop for | ward, legs wide apart, and make
 vicious chopping movements first be
 tween the legs then out to right and
 left repeating this series about twen ty times. At the termination of this
 series I commence to mingle foot
 work with arm and body movement. I leap from side to side, dance on
 the ball of the foot, turn and twist in eccentric movements, just as l gencies of a real fight. At that eli
 max of the leaping, twisting and :, pulling the handles are released with
 rattle and snap and I immediately
 plunge into shadow boxing.
 To the novice onlooker, shadow
 tice it under the direct rays of the
 sun, it is an exercise that prepares me for what I must face on the
 Fourth of July. see Dempsey's
 face between me as I dart around the ring. swing with my right, jab an uppercut with my left. I keep
 him of with a stiff, extended left,
 and then as he slips in at close quar- ters I bring down my right like a trip hammer.
 Now he leaps for my jaw and I
 straighten up and draw my head
 backward bringing it completely out
 of danger. It Is my turn to attack. see signs of weakening in my op- ponent, down comes my body into crouch. with arms we'll out, my mid

 remorselessly, step by step. My left
 swings up with a half uppercut. AS it lands. there is a quick corkscrew- ing motion. The right which critics say couldn't use swings over the finishing punch. It is a short, snap py hook that travels less than six inches. You understand this Is all imaginary.
 Call for imagination.
