ROUND LAKE SUMMER SCHOOL
Rev. J. A. Perry, Superintendent of
Program Committee.

Rev. ]. A. Perry is superintendent
and chairman of the program COM
mittee of the Round Lake summer in
stitute. Round Lake is a beautiful
spot about five miles north of Mechan-
icville, especially adapted to summer
study and recreation. The training
school with chief emphasis on Sun
day school work opens July 18th and
runs to July 26th. A registration fee
of $500 pays for ticket to all func-
tions, and secures free room. Board
at the Orient Hotel is $40 per week
not including room. The general
plan followed is study in the forenoon
five classes), recreation in the af-
ternoon (swimming, boating, fishing,
tennis, golf, basketball, and crochet,
all free except golf, vesper services
at 7.15 on the hill crest and enter
tainment in the evening.
AS to caliber and character of the
faculty and entertainers nothing
superior to this program will be
found in America this summer.
Among the distinguished persons to
teach and inspire are Bishop Edwin
II. Hughes, DR.. l.. H. Beeler Dean of
the Presbyterian Training school of
Chicago, Prof III. N. Tilroe dean of
the Syracuse University school of
Oratory, Rev. ]. V. Moldenhower, d.
d. of Albany, Charles o. Judkins, d.
D. of Glens Falls, Rev. VIM. G..
Boomhower Of Newark, N. j., Mrs.
Allen c. Risley of Schenectady, Mrs.
F. G. Everitt Of Newark, N. j., Mrs.
Francis Winans Gould of Bristol, VT,
and the staff Of the New York State
Sunday school association including
DIR. Joseph Clark, superintendent OF
the association.
The reason that the rates are so
low as compared with other summer
schools of its character is that the
income from an indowment pays
tmee-forths of the cost of the pro
gram. A handsome booklet telling OF
Round Lake, it's environments, and
the whole seasons program can be Sc
cured from Rev. Mr.. Perry, 12O Pleas

today against an attack on that Prov

Near the end of an all-day session
the committee voted down an amend

which would have prevented use Dy

Eamonn de Valera, president of

Dublin. announced yesterday that the
first bond issue of his unrecognized
Government would be for one million
pounds sterling, or about S5OO0,OOO,

and half abroad He added that the
flotation of the loan would be second
airy only to the prime object of com

ment. through the force of public
opinion, officially to recognize his
republic as such.
One interesting disclosure which
de Valera made yesterday. unwitting-
ly, was the fact that he left ireland
on June /. But he did not add to
this statement-it had been sand
wiched in between two bits Of Irish
history-when his attention was
called to it. unless, of course, an ex-
tremely pleasant smile and protrac.
