 In the course of his more intimate talk, pr. Bell touched upon the theme of ''old folks" and by drawing obvious parellels said that if a persons soul is all right tEere is no such thing as "old folks.' The body, he said, is but the earthly raiment of the soul and though the body may become old, feeble and worn, the soul, if it Is righteous. never grows old.
 Among the old folks who were present at the service were Newton Smith and Mrs. M. $. Burdick. To these members of the congregation went the distinction of being the old est people in the congregation. They were warmly greeted by their friends received numerous congratulatory greetings and a bouquet of flowers MT. Smith is S2 years old and Mrs. Burdick is S6.
 Following the service an informal reception was held in the church when Dr. Bell greeted personally many of his former pariShioners..

CALLS HARDING'S
 POLICY FLIP FLOP
Roosevelt Sees No Hope of His
 Winning Election

Grand Rapids, Mich, Oct. 1S.- Charges that republican campaign orators were making an appeal to racial hatreds and prejudices which will continue 10 bear evil fruit long after the coming election" were made by Franklin D. Roosevelt, democratic vice-presidential nominee in a series of speeches today through south western Michigan.
 These republican speakers" Mir. Roosevelt said, "basing their appeals on false premises and misstatements of fact are deliberately infiaming the passions of their hearers, creating enmity toward those countries whose soldiers with our boys fought side by side in the late war-countries that are still allies and countries that will, God willing, continue to be our allies in the great work that con- fronts the civilized nations in re- building the world after the storms of the great war.
 Wild charges are spread about by republican orators who, raving about internationalism, would lead the ill., informed to believe that other coun- tries are plotting against us. Foolish appeals are made for us to live our own lives and let Europe go hang, Just tnOuBn u WAS pOSSlDle us or any other nation to lead life of national isolation.
 Tt is hardly conceivable" he said. that the more progressive elements among republican party leaders can continue their support of Senator Harding. Were he even a standpat- ter. a conservative of conservaties, it seems to me it would be easy to fol- low him. His apparent inability to say what he means or even what he says. should make him absolutely hopeless as at standard bearer from a progressive point of view.
 Senator Harding had done much in the past two weeks to injure his own cause. Most of us realize that the American public likes a clean cut, straight from the shoulder man, and that it does not like men in public life who say one thing and mean another. Senator Harding'c flip flop policy on tho league alone il- illustrates above anything else that he is not fit, not only to become the chief executive of this nation, but even to lead his own party in help ing to solve the great problems which now confront us."

JOHN REED, WRITER,
 IS DEAD IN MOSCOW
Famous Magazine Correspondent
 Victim of Typhus

Portland, Ore, Oct. 1S.-John Reed, magazine writer, died Sunday in Mos- COW, Russia, of typhus, according to a telegram received hero by Henry G. Reed, a brother, from Louise Bryant, Reeds widow.
 Reed had made several visits to Russia during the soviet regime Since his latest departure from this country last year relatives here had received various conflicting reports regarding him. One was to the effect that he had been executed in Finland, as a soviet emissary and another that he had been imprisoned in Russia.
 John Reed for the past ten years was prominent as a writer in maga- zines and a war correspondent. In addition he wrote a number of books on the world war and problems aris- ing from that conflict.
 In 1916 he was in Russia as socialist delegate, and upon his return it was announced he had been ap pointed Russian consul in New York. He was not accorded recognition by the United States government how ever, and later dispatches from Petro- grad claimed his credentials as consul had been cancelled. Reeds pronounced views on comm unlSm led to his arrest on several occa sions, and it was Charg- ed he made seditious utteranceS while the United States was engaged in the war. Charges of sedition brought against him were dropped, however, in April 1919.
 He sailed for Russia during the autumn of the same year. and sub sequent to that time was indicted at Chicago for violation of the state syndicalism act. It appears he later returned to the United States, and once more went to Europe it being reported he had been found in the coal bunker of a ship in a Finnish port. The state department at Wash ington denied he had an American passport and it wa charged he was travelling with forged papers. , Since reaching Finland, Reed has been reported arrested on two occa- sions,, and at one time it was said he had been executed in that country.
 On August 2S it was reported he had been sent to Moscow to represent American Communists.
 John Reed was born at Portland Oregon, on October 22, 1887. He re- ceived the degree of bachelor of arts at Harvard university in 1910 and immediately began his career as q writer. He served at various times or the editorial staffs of prominent mag. azines.

WOULD RE-ORGANIZE
 PROFESSIONAL BALL
Owners of Various Clubs in Big Cir cult Discuss AdvisabiIity of Civilian Tribunal Today.

Chicago. Oct. 1s.-Discussion Of plans for tho reorganization of base ball under a civilian tribunal was started here today. at a joint meeting of National and American club owners. All the members of the National league headed by President Heydler were present, as were representatives of the Chicago. New York and Boston American league clubs. Ban Johnson, president of the American league had announced he would not attend the meeting and the five members. Washington, Cleveland, St. Louis and Philadelphia-who aligned them selves with him in the fight last winter were not expected to attend.
 The chief topic today was the dis cussion of the Laslker plan of reorgan- ization, which if adopted would place control of professional baseball under q tribunal of three men not interested financially in the game. This would do away with the national commission which has been without a chairman since the resignation of August Herr mann of Cincinnati last fall.
