Richmond Methodists are looking
forward with interest to the big meet
ings Sunday when DR.. F. b. Fisher
and the Rev. Ralph Diffendorfer OF
the centenary commission deliver adj
dresses here.
The centenary movement contem-
plates aid at home and abroad for
struggling humanity. The denominar
ton will raise $10O,000,00O for the pur-
pose, and Richmond Methodists will
raise their quota without trouble, &C
cor(iing to the ministers and members
of the laity.
Two great projects are contemplated
under the Methodist centenary plan.
One is to extend aid to the boys In
this country. Ten thousand American
boys left colleges and schools to enter
the army and navy. The church plans
to meet them at the gangplank and
send them back to school.
"Of greater importance" said a
Methodist pastor today, as the work
abroad. Orphanages must be provid-
ed for the children of the millions OF
war dead. There must be engineers,
chemists, agriculturists, doctors and
nurses, teachers and leaders for the
many projects that must be set afoot.
Medical missions must be specialized.
1.-THE centenary program aims to
set up property and equipment for
liza institutional and village chapels,
churches and headquarters, 1874 mis-
sionary residences and 657 native resi-
dences, with 1897 native preachers
and 232 missionary preachers.
1T contemplates 100 property and
equipment projects among Eastern
European groups, Italians, japanese
and Chinese of the Pacific coast, Por-
to Ricans, Hawaiians and Latin-Amer-
leans. For work among the negroes,
highlanders in the southern mountains,
Indians, Alaskans and Mormons 1t

SCHOOL REVENUE
LOSS TO COUNTY

Wayne county lost $s,135.26 in COM
mon school revenue this year, accord
ing to the certificate for apportionment
received today by w. H. Brooks, coun-
ty auditor, from the state superintend-
ent of public instruction.
The return shows that Wayne coun-
ty is to receive $23,387.70 this year, the
amount lost going to schools with low
er valuation and more school children.
The return filed with the county au-
ditor credits Wayne county with 10,878
school children.
In Wayne county the 13 and six.
tenths percent levy made for the state
schools raised s25,707.50 to which
$5,815.46 school interest is added, max
ing total of $31,522.96. The amount
returned to the county by the state
was s23,38770
Enumeration loss is caused in some
cases by the fact that frequently only
children between the ages Of six and
81, who are in school are reported to
the enumerator, when all children be
tween those ages should be reported
The next enumeration is to be tax
en- in the spring of 1920.
The school enumeration last year
showed 10,S3S pupils enrolled. The
school fund apportionment for the
county was $22,43460.

into the actual fighting is Jack dots"
Miller, the Cardinals veteran fnfield-
er, who Is q non-commissioned officer
in the marine corps. Miller enlisted
early last summer and was sent to
Paris Island to train, and while there
was offered an assignment as base
ball instructor Tor the "Leathernecks, !"
but refused to accept 1t, declaring
that he had enlisted to fght and not
to play ball. He performed his duties
well and earned promotion and hoped
to be sent to France before the end
OF the summer. However, the regi-
ment in which he is serving did not
embark until October Is, and was still
on it's way to the fighting line when
the armistice was signed.
Connie Mack has shared another
Ursinus pitching star. A few years
ago Jing Johnson broke into the Ath-
letics' lineup via the Collegeville in

fessional experience in the Texas and
Western leagues. He uses his right
hand to curve EN- and lives in College
vile. ,Longacre was recently mus
tehed out of the service. At Camp
Greenleaf last summer he was the star
pitcher. Jing Johnson, who is now
in the navy, will also be back with
the AS this season.
