Sci. ECT SPOILERS
FOR COUNTY TEST

Alice Remery, a seventh grade
Garfield school pupil. and Ruth
Spratt, eight grade Central gram
mar student, were winners yester-
day afternoon in the Moline SPELL
ing contest to determine represent
atives at the county competition in
the Washington school, Rock Is
land, Dec. 3.
These two, with Willis Jordan OF
Central grammar and Helen Nc
lntyre of Irving, finished 100 words
with tie score, each contestant;
having misspelled four. On the
next rs the two runners-up made
two errors each, and the Misses
Remery and Spratt came through
without an error. On the next list
OF 25 the Central grammar entry
misspelled massacre" the judges
counting the mistake more upon il
legibility than direct error. The
two high spoilers had taken a total
Of 200 words. The examination was
written.
Alternates at the last moment
were allowed to compete in the con-
test on the same basis as the first
group, so that IA grammar school
pupils were allowed to try for the
honor instead of the originally an
nounced group of seven. Partici-
pants came from Grant, Central
Grammar, Ericsson, Willard, Lin
coin, Garfield and Irving schools.
In last nights list of competitors
the names Of Ethel Ramer AMI
Alice Smith, Lincoln school rep
resentatives, were inadvertently
omitted.
Townships throughout the county
this week will complete local con-
tests to determine entries in the
county tests, from which the best
spoilers will go to Springfield late
next month to try for state honors.

CHURCHES ARENOT
TOO PLENTIFUL IN
CITY, FACTS SHOW

Moline is not overchurched, its
percentage Of church membership Is
below the average and its program
merely that OF an overgrown coun,
try pastorate, Rev. 0. B. Enselman
told members of the Methodist city
missionary organization at its an
nual meeting in the First Methodist
church. Moline. last night.
Rev. Mr.. knselman had charge of
the fnteschurch survey work in this
city ana his statement OF conditions
WAS based upon returns compiled
by survey workers in this commu-
pity. Three outstanding features
tof that survey. the city director
found. were that an astounding ma
3orfty OF people. whether actual
churchgoers or not. did not hesitate
to claim affiliation with some rslig-
aous organization; that in proper
tion to Its population, its churches
and their location and the percent
age of church attendance. the city
10 not Oversupplied, although the
survey indicated but 5000 Protest
ants, nearly 10 per cent below the
national average based upon the
federal census return. Male church.
goere. too, are recruited largely
from the rural residents Of the
city. The city church. his state
ment indicated. has failed to hold
the city residents to itself. The
cause. Rev. MIR. Enselman said, was
result OF the church failure to
adapt itself TO conditions and its
intention OF . country program.
