EpiscOpaIidns End
 MOnaentOles Session;
 Big Reforms Voted

Detroit, Mich, Oct. 29.-Adjourn- ing to meet in Portland, Ore, in 1922, the triennial general conven- tion of the Protestant Episcopal church in America ended the most momentous session of it's history. In the closing service of the. con- vention the church was called upon, through the pastoral letter, to squarely face it's duty in the new era, and the problems of the era of reconstruction.
 The convention just closed made church history, leading men of the Episcopal church declare, and adopted legislation destined to place the communion on a broadened plane in the eyes of the entire Christian world. In this connection they cite the following four points;
 First-The almost complete reor- ganization of the church through the creation of an executive coun- cil and the granting of increased powers to provincial synods.
 Second-The broadening of the church's outlook on social matters, tional affairs.
 Third-The general approval of the movement toward church unity by amending the church constitu- tion to make possible the proposed concordat with the Congregational church whereby ministers of that church may be ordained in the Episcopal faith, these amendments also making possible similar agree ments with other denominations. Fourth-The broadening of the worship of the church in revision of the book of common prayer and it's enrichment
 Greatest interest of church peo- pie and convention delegates was shown in the selection by the house of bishops of Bishop Thomas F. Gailor of Tennessee, as chairman. of the new executive council which will handle the business of the church after January 1. Bishop Gailor will hold office until the next con vention. He becomes, by virtue of the office, executive head of the church. Bishop Daniel s. Futile of Missouri, remaining it's ecclesiastical head as presiding bishop although eventually the two offices will com bine.
 The house of bishops referred to the council an investigation of work done among negroes and a suggestion that a conference of ra- cial representatives be held in each large city to consider greater social justice. A resolution asking "dis- eliminating executive clemency'' for political prisoners" including conscientious objectors, was adopted in the house of bishops, but almost unanimously voted down by the house of deputies.

Springfield, H., Oct. 29.-The 200 miners employed at the Wood side mine threatened to strike this morning because their winters supply of coal had not been deliv- o~od yesterday. They expect the big strike Friday midnight, and il ii, highly important that they themselves be warm while the mines are closed.
 Michael White, division superin' tendent of the Peabody Coal Com. pany, telephoned the mine this morning a trife before 8 o'clock to ascertain whether the mine had started work. He got the mine superintendent, Robert Wilson, or the wire.
 "We haven't started yet,' replied Wilson.
 "What is up?" asked White.

GETTING CLOSER. ;

There is district in Cincinnati where the inhabitants have devel- oped a peculiar ambition. They want to live like villagers, and to know each other by their first names all over the neighborhood.
 This is not brainstorm on their part. It is not the doctrine of some new thought school. They have realized that all members of a community have material ad- vantage if they know each others merits. abilities, qualifications, and so forth. This condition IS possi- ble without intrusion into the pri- yate affairs of individuals.
 Tn each neighborhood there are generally few physicians. Also a few people with specialized mechan- ical ability. There are women who have developed themselves beyond the average at cookery, and other domestic sciences. And no neigh borhood can get all there is to be had out of itself, unless it knows what it has for distribution.
 This Cincinnati neighborhood be- gan it's local inventory by enlist ing the services of a woman who knew large number of people in the district It was made her busi- ness to get them acquainted-in . factful way, without using bale hooks. The experiment succeeded remarkably we'll, and the district has enjoyed a community life for the last two years. The purpose of the scheme was not sentimental or social. but practical and material, and it has always remained so.
 In large cities like Cincinnati, where it is only rare that any one knows more: than one or two people on the same block, consummation like this is a real achievement.

AN EPIDEMIC OF
 MUMPS IN CAMP

Among approximately 1S,00O men at Camp Wheeler, there were 6,756 cases of humps, says the Journal of the American Medical Associa- tion. Every third man in the di- vision, in other words, has had the humps. Of 13,638 total admis- sions to the hospital in March, 1919, almost one-half were mumps+42.2 2 per cent. The cost of the epidemic to the government was at least $1,- 000,000. The sign is tenderness just beyond the angle of the jaw on running the finger toward the angle, under the mandible. If the parotid gland is. at all involved, the patient winces with pain. This oc- CUTS before any swelling can be made out. It is almost constant, it is early, it is definite and it is exclusive; therefore it is diagnostic.

NOT ALWAYS. BUT GENERALLY

One day in the early part of Sep- tember lady went into a store in q middle western town to buy ma ferial for a winter coat. The sales man showed her various grades of cloth, and she picked one which was worth about S10, but the price at k15. She returned the following day to make the purchase, but learned that the price had advanced to $17.50 per yard. She reminded the salesman of the price quoted on the previous day, and was told that another store on the same street was selling a similar material at xi7.50. The wholesaler had there fore served notice that unless the price was increased to $17.50, the store's contract for additional cloth would be cancelled.
 This word, "profitecr," is becom- ing as monotonous as the word "camoufiage" was until it went out of fashion. "Profiteer" is now more overworked than any other word in the language; and, like most overworked words, it gradually loses its meaning-or rather, it tends to mean almost anything.
 A man is not necessarily a prof iteer if he makes profit-or if he makes large profit. It is dishon- est to make no profit, because a man who makes nothing ceases to be self-dependent. He is obliged to live at the expense of some one else, which no man should do while he IS able tO earn a livipo
 A man is profiteer who, with out rendering any service, manipu- lates conditions with the sole mo- tive of making necessaries expen- sive. To sell an article for the high est price one can get is justifable. The labor unionists certainly sell their labor at that price. But a man who makes systematic busi.

FOCn JoLTs BRITISH
Appeal Inspires British Army to
 Success
Tells Them They "vanquished NapoIe- or; Why Not the Lowiy Cermans7"

Paris.-An appeal to the British sol diers dictated by the then General Foch, asking them to remember their forefathers' victory over Napoleon, in. spired them to attack the Germans and recover the ground they had lost be fore the gas wave at the second bat tie of Ypres, writes Colonel Feyler in the Journal de Geneve.
 Before the asphyxiating gas both British and French had been obliged to give ground. The then General Foch intended to recover the former positions at all costs, according to Colenel Feyler. He asked Gen. Sir John French to cooperate with him Impossible" replied French; my men are ready to hold here, but l do moi feel that I can demand of them, in their present condition further sacri. Aces in attacking"
 Foch expressed surprise: 'Theil morale is low" he said. "Why don't you launch a proclamation? Some thing like this: British soldiers. for ward. You who have vanquished the great Napoleon, shall 1t come to pass that you will permit the lowly Ger man to drive you from your positions and retain themr
 How is thst?" asked French, great ly interested. "Please repeat it." And at the dictation of Foch, French wrote out the proclamation. which was giv- en out 10 the troops the next day. saThe next morning the British sol diers hit the line and recovered all the lost ground.

ness of creating scarcity to send prices higher is a profiteer, like the clothing wholesaler mentioned above.
 To kill man is not necessarily to commit murder. It depends on the attendant conditions and the governing motive. It has been done several times in France with an ex- cellent motive.
 To sell articles at high price is not necessarily profteering. But it can be, under certain conditions and it is important that diligent investigation should discover what the conditions are.

 A few minutes later Wilson said that the men had taken the cage downward.
 "These men have waited until the last minute to get their coal, '' explained White. "They had or dered their coal, and apparently wanted the mine to discriminate in their favor by delivering coal to them ahead of others who had or dered before them. If they had not gone to work the mine could not have operated, and they probably would have had trouble getting theii coal by the time they expect the strike to begin"
